Founded by the youthful and creative cohort of Jalen Heard, Lane Milne, Jonny White, and Nupohn Inthanousay, Goldee's is the name on the lips of every barbecue aficionado seeking out great brisket (among other items) in the Fort Worth area. Open just a few days a week from late morning until afternoon, one must go when the getting is this good; and it's absolutely worth the hours-long wait in the Texas sun.
The brisket here, premium Black Angus beef, is cooked low and slow using post oak sourced from nearby. The meat is meltingly tender with a rich, clean flavor and needs nothing else; however, stuck between slices of homemade bread with a dab of the sweet/tart mustard-y sauce is a delightful way to go. Turkey, ribs (beef and pork), and sausage round out the proteins, which can be sided by potato salad or zesty cabbage and kale slaw.
