Google Reviews The Wagon Wheel
The restaurant has been around since 1994, but up until recently, it was somewhat of a hidden gem that, for the most part, only locals frequented.
Thanks to a relatively new location and a revamped menu, The Wagon Wheel is experiencing a surge of popularity among not just Eagle Pass residents but tourists as well.

Texans from all corners of the state appreciate the decidedly country-western vibe. The walls are covered in cow skulls, taxidermized animal heads, and cowboy-themed artwork, and a rustic, yet cozy feeling permeates the dining area.
The Wagon Wheel is primarily known for its mouthwatering BBQ.

You'll see brisket, sausage, ribs, chicken, and a whole host of scrumptious sides on the menu. Everything is prepared by expert chefs and pitmasters, and after one bite, you'll be in carnivore heaven.
If you prefer a handheld, the BBQ sandwiches are also to die for. Would you just look at how much meat is stuffed between these buns?

The meat is oh-so-tender, lightly breaded, and seasoned to perfection before getting its signature crispy exterior in the deep fryer. The "icing on the cake" so to speak is the thick layer of cream gravy poured on top. Perfection!
