Bill Miller -b-q - San Antonio

I grew up with Bill Millers #1 store right down the street from where I lived. Southcross and Goliad. The building was nothing special, but the food was stupendous. My family would go and get sausage, beef, or pork poorboy sandwiches from Mr. Miller andhis son's who worked there. Doug Miller and I became good friends and I worked with him at the #1 store for quite some time,battering their delicious fried chicken, making their trademark cole slaw from scratch fresh in The morning, putting a hugebatch of pint of pinto beans on to cook and, finally, those trademark hash browns that are cooked on the griddle until they'reslightly crispy and golden brown. From the time I was a child until today, 6 decades have passed. Things have changed,especially prices, but the food that Bill Miller has spread across Texas has never changed. The poorboy, the beef plate, thesausage, the chicken, all take me back to a time when food was real and delicious but is still available at each and every BillMillers Bar-B-Que. Oh man, don't forget the sweet iced tea in a Tea Bucket and a slice of heaven, pecan pie. I have always lovedthe brownies with nuts, though. And with that I'll let your salivary gland rest. Good eats are automatic at Bill Millers!

We visit this Bill Millers location often because we love the food. But this evening the young lady taking our order in the drive through impressed us so much we had to call to ask for her name. Dora?s customer service was spectacular. We appreciatedher friendly tone, the way she confirmed each item I ordered, and even offered to put the whipped cream from my pumpkin pie onthe side so it doesn?t melt. (Something I otherwise wouldn?t have know I could ask for) After getting home, all my familiesorders were just as we ordered and her whipped cream suggestion made such a difference. Her thoroughness and friendliness madethis visit a great one. Thank you.

I don't know why the employee thought this barbecue was fit to serve a customer. I asked for lean meat. The dinner plate came with the barbecue swimming in sauce and barely visible. As I pushed through the two rock hard end pieces, I discovered slimyfatty pieces. Finally, underneath the mess I got two good, edible slices. My husband ordered turkey. Hard, dried out meat. Neverreturning to this place. Ever. To be fair, we have ordered takeout on 2 previous occasions and the food was outstanding. I justdon't know what happened. How could someone think this meat was okay to serve?

2 brisket tacos. Meat was lean and the tea was ok. Usually its great. The dining room was clean and empty so it was enjoyable.

This is one of the busiest Bill Miller's in town however, the drive thru was quick and the staff was extremely friendly. We ordered the three piece chicken served with fries and the two meat plate brisket and sausage and sides and everything wasdelicious. Five stars on efficiency, customer service, taste, and affordability. We will definitely be back.
