Ten 50 BBQ, Barbecue restaurant in Richardson, Texas
Ten 50 BBQ is a barbecue restaurant in Richardson, Texas, that uses certified USDA Prime meats smoked low and slow in the Texas tradition. The menu centers on items like brisket, St. Louis pork ribs, and turkey sausage, all served freshly carved at the counter.
Ten 50 BBQ opened in Richardson to bring the slow-smoking traditions of central Texas to the northern suburbs of Dallas. The restaurant has kept to those same methods since opening, without shifting toward faster or more industrial cooking approaches.
Texas barbecue is built on patience, and at Ten 50 BBQ that shows in every step from the smoker to the counter. The staff carves each portion in front of you, which makes the whole experience feel more like watching a craft than ordering a meal.
The restaurant offers both dine-in and takeout, and the line moves at the counter where you choose your cuts. Arriving early in the day gives you access to the full range of smoked meats before popular items sell out.
The restaurant uses only USDA Prime certified meat, which is the top grade given by the US Department of Agriculture and something most barbecue spots do not offer. That grade is usually found in high-end steakhouses, not in counter-service smoke pits.
