Yelp's Top 100 BBQ Spots 2024
Tyler's Barbeque landed #4 on the list! That's #4 out of 100 BBQ restaurants in the entire United States. That means Amarillo is home to one of the most delicious BBQ restaurants in all the land.
Tyler’s can prepare 400 pounds of brisket and 80 racks of ribs on a typical summer day, and still sell out. That’s because owner Tyler Frazer smokes beef that’s “decadently tender and moist, [with a] beautiful smoke ring and…perfect bark.” He learned his craft while working for experts like “BBQ Whisperer” Trace Arnold on the pitmaster’s famous Ultimate Smoker & Grill 18-wheeler, until he was ready to open his own joint. All the meat comes fresh from local processors, and he sources special Malabar peppers from a spice market in Chicago—“they’ve got a really bold pungent pepper flavor without being hot,” Tyler says.
It's SOOOOOO Good!
If you have dined at Tyler's, you know why they made the #4 spot.
Plus the sides are some of the best, including the to-die for Green Chili Mac and Cheese and that Jalapeno Cream Corn. You should be drooling just reading about it.
If it's been a while since you have had a phenomenal meal at Tyler's Barbeque, you might not be able to get in the doors the next time if you don't go now. They are that famous!
