The Best Barbecue in DFW

The Best Barbecue in DFW

What’s made Spring Creek Barbeque the best barbecue in DFW for nearly 4 decades?

Well, first of all, we take pride in our delicious barbeque recipes. All your favorites, hickory-smoked! 

But we also believe that being the best is about more than just great food and a comfortable family dining experience. It’s about giving back to the community that has patronized our restaurant for so many years. 

The History of Spring Creek Barbeque

We opened Spring Creek Barbeque in 1989, with a vision of providing Texas residents with great casual family dining and authentic barbeque. 

From there, Chris and Becky Carroll expanded, growing the Carroll Family Restaurant group to 42 total restaurants - and a catering company! All are owned and operated by the Carroll family today. We’re proud to have kept Spring Creek Barbeque, Mexican Inn Cafe, and Shady Oak Barbeque & Grill in the family. 

Even after all these years, we’re still slow smoking! 

The Food of Spring Creek Barbeque

It’s a rare day you won’t find the pits fired up at any given Spring Creek location. Our dedication to being the best barbecue in DFW means we always have fresh ribs, chicken, brisket, pulled pork, sausage, turkey and ham on the ready. 

We don’t skimp on the fixings, either. You can always expect homemade barbeque sauce (it’s our own secret recipe!) and piping hot fries. Not to mention okra, cooked just the way you like.  

Barbeque is true American comfort food and comfort food is all about tradition. 

That’s why our bread is always fresh and home-baked and the salads come with homemade dressings. And don’t forget those baked potatoes - they come Texas-sized and fully loaded. 

We hope you’ll leave room for dessert! There’s nothing better to finish off a smoky, savory meal than creamy, crunchy, tangy Peach Cobbler and Cream. It’s our signature dessert! 

Spring Creek Barbeque Gives Back

At Spring Creek Barbeque, we believe being the best barbecue in DFW is about more than just amazing food. It’s about giving back. 

That’s why we created Spring Nights at Spring Creek. Currently, we work with pre-k all the way up to 6th grade to provide fun family events that create an opportunity to earn significant funds. All for your child’s school! 

If your child’s school is within 5 miles of your community’s Spring Creek Barbeque location, you’re eligible! Any interested parties in our Spring Nights can contact us here

Here’s how it works: 

  • From 5-9 pm, 20% of all net sales go to your school. The only stipulation? 15% of your school’s students must be in attendance. 

  • Every student 12 years and under receive a prize that evening. 

  • Attendance is rewarded! Teachers and all students in the top-attending homerooms get an extra special prize! 

  • Following the event, we present our donation check and all prizes at a school meeting. 

  • We take the stress out of fundraising by custom designing and delivering all the necessary materials to promote your school’s Spirit Night.
