Tyler's Barbeque
A top local BBQ choice that started in a small shack in 2010, highly acclaimed for its oak-smoked brisket and pork ribs, serving until sold out.
Opened in 2010 in a tiny shack before moving to a larger location, this is the go-to spot for locals when barbecue is mentioned, and it consistently ranks at the top of Amarillo BBQ lists on travel platforms. Owner and pitmaster Tyler Frazer has been featured in media outlets like Texas Monthly. The brisket is smoked over oak for about 14 hours, and the ribs are equally famous. Among the sides, the coleslaw and jalapeño cream corn are frequently ordered. They serve until sold out daily, and ribs often run out before closing, so arriving early for lunch is highly recommended. Closed Sundays and Mondays. The average cost is about $17–$30 per person. Located on Olsen Boulevard in the west of the city, it is easily accessible by car.
