Locals know you don't have to look far for mouth-watering barbecue at a great price. Bill Miller has been serving San Antonio for more than 50 years and has been committed to quality from the beginning. While the decor is simple and nearly exactly the same in every location, don't let the chain-restaurant style fool you -- this is comfort food that won't empty your wallet. From the tender beef brisket to the flavorful barbecued chicken, the food here will make you forget and forgive the less-than-exciting atmosphere. No one can resist the brisket on their first visit, but when you return (and you will), treat yourself to a sausage plate or sausage sandwich. The delightful flavor and tenderness will hook you quickly. Another local secret is the famous Bill Miller iced tea. People in San Antonio buy it in buckets. You'll see why. -- Ian O'Regan

This is not barbecue, the sauce tastes like watered down ketchup
I have no idea why anyone would wanna eat that trashDo people in san antonio know good bbq? I doubt it.
When I first moved here 12 years ago from the South I asked where was the best bbq in town. The reply was Bill Miller. What a joke, they don't even cook the bbq on site. Where I come from the smoke is pouring out of the chimney and the smell of bbq permeates the room when you walk in. The BBQ should be cooked for about a half a day and have the reddish hue created by the hickory smoke becoming one with the meat. Also, for all of you that think beef is the best, pork is truly a better recipient of the smoke and the taste is to die for. As far as sausage I say what is it made of and from and I would like to know. Next the BBQ sauce better be good and nothing like some of the local catchup, molasses, sugar, and spices. I am talking about a spiritual event. and most places in town are not any event. I say if you can buy better in the store than you should not be selling it,
So San Antonio, where do you go for BBQ well there are average Rudy's which is at least real but I suggest heading straight out of town for any good food. Most of the food outside of Mexican is simply mediocre at best. Ignorance is bliss.OUTSTANDING BARBECUE, SERVICE AND PRICE
I have eaten at Bill Millers for 20+ years. I have to have it whenever I pass their spinning sign. The poorboys are tasty and their fries are homemade. I have actually toured their facility where they cook the meats overnight in huge ovens. Everything is home made, and they deliver their food every morning in delivery trucks. They are known for the brownies and Iced tea. The sweet tea is addicting and refreshing.
If you want great barbecue for a great price, GO TO BILL MILLERS!Hubris AND Ham
Bill Miller must be the stingiest restaurantuer in American fastfood-dom. If you're just looking for calories and cheap food, then go through the drive-through, grab a po-boy and wolf it down. If you are looking for anything close to BBQ-then head elsewhere. Anywhere. Back in the day, when Bill was trying to gain a share of the market-much more attention was given to providing decent food at fast food prices. Then Bill expanded, and expanded, and expanded. As Bill expanded, the quality? of food deteriorated, and then Bill did the most "Un Texan"-no, make that the most un SOUTHERN thing imaginable (and in a BBQ restaurant at that)-he started charging for refills on his "famous" iced tea, because it was "so popular" and customers were draining poor Bill with their incessent demands for refills. Yeah, I see you working BIll-a glass of tea costs six cents a glass to make. You charge $1.39 for iced tea, and then .50 cents for refill. Note to Bill: You're tea isn't THAT good. I stopped going there when I realized two things: Brisket cutting guy was handling brisket with his bare hands and putting it on my plate, and you decided to up the price for tea and then charge for refills. Note to Bill. When I want good iced tea, I go to McAllisters. When I want good BBQ I go to Rudy's. When I want to grab calories, I just grab a Protein bar. Can't believe San Antonian's still fill Bill's coffers. Another sad commentary on the city. Note to naive San Antonians: Go to Grady's and get a much better meal for the same price-and tea that's just as good-and you get refills.
