Cecils BBQ Orlando, Florida

Cecil's Texas Style BAR-B-Q

There’s always an argument about BBQ, and many cities and states have BBQ cook-offs to try to decide who the best is. Everyone has an opinion, that’s for sure. Well, here is ours…. Cecil’s Texas Style BAR-B-Q in Orlando.

We knew Cecil in Texas and enjoyed his “Q” there. BTW, Texas definitely has the best BBQ in the world! Just imagine how delighted we were to see this sign for Cecil’s in Orlando on S. Orange Avenue – see photo. Not believing it could be the same Cecil, we gambled on a visit and were delighted to find Cecil himself! We met his son Michael – great guy!

The brisket (brisquet?) is the best ever. So tender and flavorful, very Texas. How do they do it? The ribs, the chicken, the pork – well it’s all divine. And we’re not the only ones who think so. Just check out the line of hungry folks at lunch. It’s hugely popular! O, and don’t miss the jalapeño mashed potatoes.

Cecil’s have been seen on Roker on the Road, gotten cudos from Scott Joseph of the Orlando Sentinel, been named as one of the top 15 BBQ restaurants in the country by KS BBQ society “Bullsheet”, received people’s choice awards , and more……

Travelers and visitors to Orlando Florida frequently look for places where the locals eat, ‘cause they are tired of the same chain food experiences. Try this one! There is something here for everyone – don’t forget to get your free ice cream cone before you leave!
