NORTH HOUSTON. Reputedly serving some of Houston's best barbecue, Burns is a longstanding tradition in these parts. The place is essentially take-out, although a few outdoor picnic tables accommodate those who lack sufficient willpower to wait. The East Texas-style barbecue is more than fork-tender and, when topped with Burns' delectable sauce, practically irresistible. Beef brisket is the standard, but you'll also find great ribs, sausages, and chicken. A few sides can be had as well. If you come during the day, you'll likely encounter crowds; if you wait till later, you may discover that certain items have already sold out. Such is the price of popularity.
