“Who we
are and how we got started: A native of Kerrville, Texas,
Harold E. “Buzzie” Hughes has been cooking barbecue all his
life. He used to do backyard barbecues, but 200 people showed
up every time word got out Buzzie was cooking. In 1993, his
wife, Brenda, finally said, “Enough is enough! Either you open
a barbecue place or start collecting donations for these
little gatherings. This is costing us a !#$&!* fortune!”
Within five months, the old Comfort Grocery and Feed Store
located in Comfort, Texas had taken on a completely new look.
Buzzie renovated the old building and turned it into a clean,
friendly atmosphere, featuring taste-bud-pleasing, homeboy
barbecue, prepared over a mix of oak and mesquite wood, using
spices that continue to remain a secret.
Five years later, in January 1998, Buzzie expanded into
Kerrville, Texas, in the heart of the Hill Country. His
business grew along with his reputation. Profiled in “Texas
Monthly” as one of the ….50 Best Barbecue Joints in the State,
along with his 9 wins as reader’s choice for best barbecue in
Kerrville’s local paper, Buzzie remains committed to living up
to the expectations of his customers.
Although a fire in 2007 forced the closing of their Comfort,
Texas location, Buzzie and Brenda have been extremely
successful running the restaurant and accommodating all their
catering requests. Together, they invite you to experience the
true taste of Texas barbecue and promise to provide quality
food, at a reasonable price with service that is second to
none.
