new Podnuhs on Perkins & Bluebonnet

I got some beans and potato salad to go yesterday, and they were both good. Beans were as good as I remember, with lots of meat in them.

I haven't been to Podnuh's since the one on Essen burned down several years ago, and I remember that one had kind of a counter line where you told them what you wanted on your plate & paid at the end. The new one has sit-down and order from a waitress service. (I placed my to-go order at the small bar, so I guess they serve alcohol there.)

They had a fair amount of business for a Saturday afternoon, and seemed to be working pretty efficiently. A couple of large TVs with sports on, so it might be a good place to eat/watch a game.

I went on Friday. They have a full bar and a much more extensive menu than I remember Podnuh's having(I also haven't been since the one on Essen burned).

I had a brisket/jalapeno cheese sausage combo plate and baked beans. All in all it was good. I'll go back.

Out of pork and brisket everything else dried....yea I will defiantly drive out my way to the OTHER Podnuh's in the future. These guys have got some learning to do.

Yeah, i'll be heading to Sucker's instead. That place is legit.

Went last week.

Pulled pork was almost ice cold a HUGE negative especially since it took a long time to come out. Service was not that great but its new so I give it a pass.

Texas Toast was awsome and will kill me one day.

Baked beans were good too.

Met the wife and kids there for lunch today. My thoughts:

-sit down at Podnuh's? Really?

-too much non BBQ on the menu. I didn't go there for a shrimp poboy.

-service was good for the most part, but it wasn't swamped in there.

-food came out quickly

-still the best baked beans in town, bar none

-chopped brisket sandwich on Texas toast was very good. Meat falling off, so portion size was good.

-only 1 side included now (I remember 2 sides at the other locations).

-kid's meals were a joke. 2 small fried chicken tenders that weren't very good. Fries straight from the freezer. Microwaved mac & cheese. All for $4.69 a pop.

So, we spent $36 (including tip) for lunch. At Podnuh's. Sorry, but there are better options for me to feed my family lunch at or below that price point. They need to lose the sit down/server aspect.

I just cant believe it took forever to get my food and it was served freakin cold.

Burbank at gardere couyons beans are amazing... The couyons near lsu is nicer but the beans are bland (and that is what I think are the best part of couyons). I prefer voodoo' sauces

I've only eaten at the one on Sherwood and I don't know how Podnuhs exists quite honestly......the stuff is horribly bad. But that's me.

I've wondered for the last 10 years how that filthy place is open.
