The History


The Longhorn Barbecue originated in Houston, Texas, in 1946. After 10 years in business in the “pistol packin’ city” the brothers decided to move to the great Northwest. Since coming to Spokane from Texas, the brothers have captured the hearts of Spokane diners with their excellent “Southern Pit Style” Barbecue.

Pardnur, this is REAL Pit Barbecue because the meats are smoked on the pits by a combination of apple, cherry, alder, and birch woods…

In 1997 the Longhorn headed West again and opened a new restaurant in Auburn, Washington. Now folks can enjoy Texas style barbecue on both sides of the Cascades.

In 2002 the brothers hung up their hats from working the pits and passed down the reins to two teams. Longhorn East and Longhorn West are both destined to share this genuine Texas-style barbecue with the world.

Whether it’s a company function or a family event, when the Longhorn “Chuck Wagon” rolls up, the feed bag is on.
