Born and raised in Lubbock, TX, Lubbock had Underwood's in the 60s and 70s, and my family ate there at least once a month. Loved their food as a young boy, and I can still remember how wonderful the place smelled as soon as I stepped into the restaurant.
Falling in love with this channel. Not only do I love Texas BBQ but, my wife is from Texas and when we watch this, she gets excited because, either her or a member of her family has been to these places.
I've eaten at Underwoods all my life. Even worked there two different times. Best eatin in town! My grandchildren love it. We ordered Underwoods for Christmas dinner. My daughters and their families came from Wisconsin and McKinney Tx. Said they wanted Underwoods for Christmas dinner. Loved every bit of it. Don't listen to all the idiots that are putting Underwoods down.
They also had an Underwood's in Waco years ago. Was top shelf chow. Yes, I hear people talk about the Waco lacation also till this very day. I used to drive by there every other day but never had time to stop. Sounds like a trip to Brownwood is in order.
They had restaurant in Waco for a while and my family ate there often! I miss how good the food is!!! And the peach cobbler was by far the best I've ever had... Good memories.
My eyes were bigger than my stomach when I filled up a tray at Underwoods 😅 I couldn't finish my meal but I really tried. It was so good! The staff were so great and the patrons were lovely, too. It was the first time in my life I'd tried cobbler! But I'm from Australia and never see it for sale here. Been meaning to bake some myself when I find the time.
I went on numerous high school band and debate trips to Brownwood back in the '70s and Underwoods was the place we ate on nearly every trip. There were always at least two or three other high schools there when we went. Great food and memories.
I lived in Amarillo when I was a young kid and we would eat there it was so good. Barbeque beef, potato salad and cobbler for dessert. They also had a treasure chest and after dinner you got to get a toy from it! Very good memories.
Aloha from Hawaii! Long time viewer, here. As much as I enjoy the burgers and BBQ you feature on this show, I really liked this episode because I know there's so much other delicious food in Texas. I would love to see you feature more cafe's, mom & pop, and family run restaurants like this one.
This brought me back to my youth eating at Underwood's while visiting family. Always good food and the rolls! Definitely worth a stop if your in that area of Texas.
We were so upset when they closed down. They had a hard time after the 79 tornado and closed not long after. It was the best place to feed a big family like ours. The barbeque steak and cherry cobbler were the best I ever had.
I grew up near Brownwood, but never developed a taste for the so called 'barbeque steak' from Underwood's, because it always reminded me of Sloppy Joes. However, the fried chicken, rolls and cobbler are great. I usually make several trips per month through the drive-thru, for my fried chicken fix.
Growing up in Amarillo, I ate at Underwoods thinking it was the only one. Now I know it was the one and only of its kind even with other locations. Sad to learn they closed in Amarillo. If you compare barbeque types you could certainly prefer others but Underwoods is incomparable, being one of a kind. Basically, it's number one in its field because its the only one in its field. Long live the independent restaurants in America and heip what's left because they're fading fast. That brings into question whether the new generation has the good taste and sensibility to keep it going. If not it will be their loss, not our's who came before.
When I was a little kid there was an Underwoods in Odessa my dad would take our family there every Friday it was so delicious... we just moved back to Texas and one of the first places we ate at in Brownwood was Underwoods.... it's still delicious...
Thats where his REAL personality showed up! I knew him and he was a JERK. And that "steak" is GARBAGE that I would not feed to my dog! Their CFS is OK but ALL the BBQ sucks!
Boy do I remember Underwood's ! I live in Ft. Worth area & when I was a kid, we'd go t Ark. to visit family. And on the way we'd stop in Sherman to eat at Underwood's. It was Great !! There was one in Haltom City for a while. I miss the BBQ & its on my bucket list to make it to Brownwood in the future !! Thanks for the tour !
@Lloyd Bonafide : When you traveled the way my Dad did in the 60s, threw Grapevine, Lewisville, Etc.. to Sherman. Hwy 75/69 into Oklahoma. All the way to 40. get to Mofet into Ft. Smith, pass Judge Roy Bean's hanging court. ETC...
@Lloyd Bonafide : Judge Roy Bean had several courts. He also traveled to TX like you said. Pull up Ft. Smith, check out its history & places to visit ! :)
And right you should, this kind of dining is pretty rare even in Texas, but the food is the best kind of homemade. Don't get it wrong, though, Underwood's atmosphere is super antique, and i doubt it could open in a brand new place looking like it looks in Brownwood.
i make the trip form college station to Odessa every two weeks for work. I might need to leave early one hitch and go the "long way" thru brownwood and check this out!
Lol, when the brother said he wanted to be a banker or broker. My first thought when I saw them was: "These guys don't look like they run a restaurant - they look like bankers."
Back in the 70's there was an Underwood's in the Sherman/Denison Tx area and one in Lawton Ok. Wonder if they was from the same family? They were both good places to eat at.
@@jaysantos536 To me it's worth an hour long drive each way and every penny of the price. I save half of my food in a takeout dish and get two meals out of it anyway!
Underwood's so good it's the best everything so fresh those hot yeast biscuits melt in your mouth everything is so good and the cherry cobbler peach cobbler and such good nice friendly people it's a bit of Heaven in the state of Texas
Live here and have been eating at Underwood's my whole life. Just as good today as it was many moons ago! Can't believe you didn't mention the Cobbler!!?
1960's Underwoods Norman, Okahoma, I think the same family franchise. A cherished childhood memory. A little something brought back by the Sooner's maybe? Had to get good bar-b-que some where.
Smitty's is good....but you gotta get there early or it's all gone.......Same with "Stick's" on south 377. Good smoked BBQ but ya gotta be early to get some.....

I've been watching for about a year now. Keep these bucket lists coming! I love these videos and I am a proud Texan.
Have you watched the episode of the turkey leg hut?
I grow up in Brownwood and that is my first stop every time Im back in town. Love Underwoods!
Wichita Falls TX. Had Underwood, back in 60's and 70"s Great Food.
I lived on Beverly drive in the 70s. I remember that restaurant. We were too poor to eat there.
I've eaten at Underwoods all my life. Even worked there two different times. Best eatin in town! My grandchildren love it. We ordered Underwoods for Christmas dinner.

How does it rate compared to Hutchins?
The Underwood's in Lubbock closed thirty years ago, and people still talk about it fondly. This might be worth a destination trip to Brownwood.
They also had an Underwood's in Waco years ago. Was top shelf chow. Yes, I hear people talk about the Waco lacation also till this very day. I used to drive by there every other day but never had time to stop. Sounds like a trip to Brownwood is in order.
And they had one in Amarillo too
God bless Texas!
God help us all here in California 🙏
prayin for ya
God have been blessing us. When are we going to start blessing HIM, and really choosing to live for HIM, and love on HIM, for a change?
They had restaurant in Waco for a while and my family ate there often! I miss how good the food is!!! And the peach cobbler was by far the best I've ever had... Good memories.
Fried chicken, cobblers and rolls are some of the best I ever had.

Underwood's really is a Texas staple. Everyone who has lived here for some amt. of time has been there.
Sure wish that we still had an Underwoods in Amarillo. Loved it as a child.
Undersoods was OK in the 60s. And that was it.
I can remember eating at the Underwood’s in Dallas back in the 1960’s when I was a kid. It was a family favorite for sure. 😎
@Lloyd Bonafide Ha!
I went on numerous high school band and debate trips to Brownwood back in the '70s and Underwoods was the place we ate on nearly every trip. There were always at least two or three other high schools there when we went. Great food and memories.
I remember the Underwoods in Amarillo ,Tx,as a child.It was on old Amarillo Blvd over by St.Anyhonys Hospital.
I lived in Amarillo when I was a young kid and we would eat there it was so good. Barbeque beef, potato salad and cobbler for dessert. They also had a treasure chest and after dinner you got to get a toy from it! Very good memories.
When I was at Tx Tech years ago, I frequently ate at Underwoood’s that was in Lubbock.

I loved to eat at Underwood’s in Amarillo. Great food and I loved their beans, and everything else, but nobody made beans like Underwood’s.
This brought me back to my youth eating at Underwood's while visiting family. Always good food and the rolls! Definitely worth a stop if your in that area of Texas.
"back to my youth" It was fine when I was 10 or 11. After that I figured out it was SLOP.
@@jaysantos536 What's your favorite restaurant in Brownwood now?
Underwood's used to be in Wichita Falls, TX 50 years ago and it was great then, sure do miss them

Underwood’s. Brings back memory’s. Used to eat at location in Fort Worth. Meat was OK but we pigged our on unlimited sides.
Good times.
River Oaks right? Last time I ate there was 1968.
Growing up in Amarillo, I ate at Underwoods thinking it was the only one. Now I know it was the one and only of its kind even with other locations. Sad to learn they closed in Amarillo.

Growing up went to Amarillo at least before Christmas, had to go eat at Underwood’s.

I'm lucky that I'm a hours drive from Brownwood. Good food and when I was in high school they had all the pretty girls.
Ooh yeah I remember
No ur not. Its ok
I'm from San Angelo and have heard of this place but most definitely will be taken a trip this month over the weekend.
that dude was so pissed when he asked if he could get two trays
Thats where his REAL personality showed up! I knew him and he was a JERK. And that "steak" is GARBAGE that I would not feed to my dog! Their CFS is OK but ALL the BBQ sucks!
He looked flippin mad like how dare you but if it's served like a buffet line than you shouldn't be offended.
@@SheldonEvans08 He is a VERY Passive Aggressive personality.
He was thinking, "if I say yes everyone is gonna quote me from this tv show."

You will regret it.
I went to school in Brownwood. I would eat at Underwood's sometimes. Great Food. 👍
Used to be an Underwoods in Arlington Tx. A great restaurant. I need to make a day trip to eat barbecue.
No you don't. The CFS is OK, that "steak" is horrible and their BBQ has always been garbage. I liked it when I was 10.
@@jaysantos536
Quit
Trolling
People
I’ve eaten there tons of times and it is very delicious!!
Been there and done that. Mighty good.
i was there yesterday for dinner. always love Underwoods 👍
Yum! We love their bar-b-que! It is the best in Texas!
Grew up in Brownwood and love some Underwoods.

Junk Yard. The one in Lawton could have been a franchise. It was owned by a local and was really good! Fond memories.
@@patsymartin3925 Ditto in Amarillo
I wish the one in Waco was still open but i'll travel to Brownwood to get some of that good food and peach cobbler it's worth the drive.
I have eaten there a couple times and its really good. Don't forget the cobbler.
Looks so good want to come try it sometime.
I just love their food
Can’t believe you didn’t cover the cobblers! I always get a little bbq with my cherry cobbler!!
Haha, this big boy loves this place, that eye roll on the roll, lol
It was a sad day, when Underwood’s closed in Lubbock. There’s never been a barbecue restaurant that can compare.
Lowake Steakhouse... Rowena Tx. In the 70s they had a dirt landing strip so us oil boys could fly in and eat a delicious steak.
I live in Brownwood and this is my favorite place to eat
Lucky you.
Shi trash stoping lien girl 😢😅😂
I love this place. I go every chance I get, even though it takes an hour to get there.
OMG why? Rolls and CFS and mashed potatoes are OK but overpriced.

Looks like ol Boy there hasn't missed too many to many meals in his life.
There used to be an Underwoods in Amarillo years ago, and it was one of the most popular restaurants there at the time :)
My mom worked there in the mid 1960s.
@@debbiebrister4108 I grew up in Pampa, and our band always went there after contest :)
We ate there many times. I loved it
Those rolls are making me drool right now
I miss Underwoods, there was one in Sherman when I growing up.
Jeremy Jones home of the Bearcats!
Im moving to Texas just so I can eat there...my kinda place..yummy..
Looks fantastic an a great deal
Great video! thank you for sharing. Do you know any asian restaurants or grocery stores in Brownwood Texas?
Every time I watch one of these, the host seems to get even bigger. He'll be size of a small planet if he keeps on eating like this.
Never trust a skinny food reviewer
Mi Ke shut up
Sadly true
Y’all should do a show on stringers bbq in Lufkin tx
Witt Pitt BBQ in Rosenberg. Some of the best Brisket around.
WhiteWolf5.0 everything at Witt Pitt is good! And them buttery potatoes!
And that waht to do with an Underwoods located 350 miles away?
Underwood's so good it's the best everything so fresh those hot yeast biscuits melt in your mouth everything is so good and the cherry cobbler peach cobbler and such good nice friendly people it's a bit of Heaven in the state of Texas
My favorite 🍖 spot in Brownwood on the way to Austin
Looks amazing
Amazingly horrible.
Woah woah woah! How did you not cover the cobbler?! Lol that is one of the main draws of underwoods!
Looking forward to coming here
Imm actually having Underwood for supper tonite. And the last time I went in a few weeks ago Mr. Underwood bought my lunch.
One ☝️ of my favorite places, Harry dietrich, now Longview Tx…
Live here and have been eating at Underwood's my whole life. Just as good today as it was many moons ago!
Can't believe you didn't mention the Cobbler!!?
I went to college in Brownwood. We definitely went to Underwood's at least once a week!
But you didn't try the cobbler and whipped cream. O:
"college in Brownwood?" No way that town has a 13th grade.
It sure does! HPU.
I mean, he's clearly on a diet...
Went there many times in my youth.
This, Gordon Wood and Coffey Anderson make me proud to call Brown county home !! BROWNWOOD OR BUST
When I was in high school I worked at the one in Waco
I miss Underwoods in Amarillo and Oklahoma City.
When they were in Abilene they were great
Darn-this food looks good-getting hungry!
Oh no it doesn't.
Looks like a great place to eat
Brown wood Texas, I eat cherry cobbler from there... Say hey to my family in Brownwood.

What no mention of their yummy cobbler?! It's so good!
He had no idea what Carrie he was talking about 😂😂😂😂😂
Catchin du bus there today
I worked at Underwoods right out of high school....they worked my azz off. LOL I thought they had all closed.....
I love underwoods 😊❤️
"I had ribs for lunch" best line in the video
My favorite place ever... my grandpaw used to bring to go when I was a kid in west texas
Yum!!! Love Them
I'd be wearin' 3 Xes if I lived in Texas 🐂
The host is...probably 4X.
Reminds me of spring creek bbq
Now i see where Spring Creek bbq got all their ideas from.
yeah but spring creek made it horrible
@@AT-oh6mw Spring Creek isn't good, but Underwoods is horrible.
The saddest of my child hood was when the Underwood 's restaurant in I can't remember for sure I think it was in River Oaks Texas was closed for good
I ate there in 1968. When did it close?
How much???
Man, its been too long since I've been to underwood's. Those rolls are worth the trip on their own, not to mention everything else.
I miss the one that was in Denton Texas
There was one in Denton???
Now I know how Steve Carrel would look like 20 years from now 🤣
Zach Myers 😂😂😂😂🎯🎯
Go vegan find compassion.
Perhaps the Cadenheads love this place. I must eat here.
