HOUSTON, TX - Iconic Third Ward smokehouse, Ray's Real Pit BBQ Shack, announces their move to a new location, boasting the same succulent flavor. Although the neighborhood eatery will remain in Third Ward, you can follow the smoke to 3929 Old Spanish Trail, Houston, Texas 77021. The doors of the new location will open March 2018.

BBQ connoisseurs patronizing Ray's BBQ Shack will enjoy 3300 square feet of casual dining with a rustic ambience. The new décor oozes of old school Texas barbecue. The highlights of the new restaurant features a larger dining area and kitchen, an outdoor smokehouse with wood burning pits, a bar with locally brewed beers on tap and domestic bottles. Although the new restaurant boasts new features on the menu highlighting the addition of pork belly sliders, Ray's BBQ Shack will still offer "foodie favorites" infused with smoke such as ribs, brisket, chicken, and sausage. To compliment those fiery favors they offer homemade sides and desserts made fresh daily. If you are not in the mood for a meal served off the pit, you can enjoy any of the following: burgers, po'boys, salads, loaded baked potatoes featuring any of their smoked meat, five cheese mac and cheese, or fish and shrimp dinners.
