James Beard-recognized Central Texas barbecue, catered to your McAllen event. Brisket with bark, beef ribs, hand-made sausage, and sides by the pan — we bring the smoke, you take the credit.
When McAllen hosts want barbecue that actually gets talked about after the event, they call GW's. We're about 15 minutes down the road in San Juan, and we've spent years building the kind of brisket people drive across the Rio Grande Valley for — the kind that earned pitmaster George Watts III a 2026 James Beard Award semifinalist nod for Best Chef: Texas, the only one in the entire RGV.
Everything we cater is the same barbecue we serve on Nebraska Avenue: brisket smoked low and slow over post oak with real bark and a clean smoke ring, beef ribs the size of your forearm, pork ribs, turkey, and sausage we grind and stuff by hand. The sides are scratch-made and travel by the pan — mac and cheese, beans, slaw, corn, and the rotating seasonal board. No steam-table shortcuts, no gimmicks. Just Central Texas barbecue done right, brought to your door in McAllen.
We cater the full range of McAllen events — weddings at the venue or the backyard, quinceañeras, corporate lunches and client dinners across the McAllen business corridor, office parties, birthdays, and family reunions. Tell us the date, the headcount, and the vibe, and we'll build a spread that fits your budget, by the pound or full service.
