Hot Rod's American Craft - Wharton

First time coming to new location. Wish I had come sooner! The staff was friendly and very helpful. The menu appeared to have more items on it than before. The portions were ample and the food quality was great. My only complaint was that I didn’t have room for pecan pie ala mode!

My boyfriend and I visited this past Sunday and absolutely loved it. We started with burnt ends wrapped in bacon, which were incredibly delicious and so tender that we could cut them in half with just a fork. He chose the French dip brisket while I went for the sloppy joe brisket. The meat in both sandwiches was generously piled on and incredibly tender. Each sandwich came with fries and coleslaw, both of which were just as tasty as the sandwiches. We will definitely be returning!

Thank you so much for helping us with our wedding! The food was absolutely outstanding—everyone couldn’t stop raving about the brisket! Your staff was fantastic, very professional, and attentive. We had an amazing time with you all, and your team truly made our day unforgettable and perfect! I would recommend you to any future bride and groom without hesitation!

I had the BBQ ribs, which are made of pork. It was delicious. Easily came of the bone and straight into my mouth. It comes with cole slaw and I chose the string beans with melted cheese and garlic. Those string beans were awesome sides. You get unlimited refills on non-alcoholic drinks as well. Customer service was very good too. The establishment is just a few minutes off of the I-80, exit 34.

Delicious BBQ smokey goodness. Tried the ribs, brisket, wings, and bacon wrapped burnt ends which were heavenly. I was also surprised to see Rekorderlig on the menu which is my favorite cider. Will be back soon! Only thing missing is traditional stack of white bread, mac n cheese, and collard greens side options.
