How a Persian-Cajun BBQ Spot Became One of Texas's Best — Smoke Point

At Redbird BBQ in Port Neches, Texas, pitmaster Amir Jalali is serving some of the most distinctive Texas-style barbecue in the state. Recently named #4 on Texas Monthly's Top 50 BBQ Joints list, Redbird blends classic Central Texas technique with the flavors of Jalali's Persian and Cajun upbringing. Their standout dish is a one-of-a-kind koobideh sausage, served with house-made pita and a creamy feta dip. Jalali also serves up classic Texas barbecue staples like brisket and ribs, alongside Cajun-rubbed turkey, scalloped potatoes, and more. #bbq #texas #cooking 00:00 What Is Redbird BBQ? 00:59 Loading Briskets on Smoker 01:56 Making the Koobideh Sausage 05:37 Brisket Prep - Trimming & Seasoning 08:16 Buttering Cajun Rubbed Turkeys 09:09 House-Made Pita Bread & Feta Dip 11:25 Foil-Tipping Briskets 12:07 Pre-Service - Pulling Sausages Off Smoker 12:15 Service - Building the BBQ Tray Credits: Supervising Producer/Director: Connor Reid Camera: Murilo Ferreira, Tom Daly Production Sound Mixer: Brian Albritton Editor: Tom Jezik Executive Producer: Stephen Pelletteri Head of Production: Stefania Orrù Supervising Producer: Connor Reid Post-Production Supervisor: Lucy Morales Carlisle Director of Production: Michelle Fox Senior Director of Photography: Murilo Ferreira Supervising Producer, Social Video: Jordan Shalhoub Download the Eater App: https://shorturl.at/Rz1pN Eater is the go-to resource for food and restaurant obsessives with hundreds of episodes and new series, featuring exclusive access to dining around the world, rich culture, immersive experiences, and authoritative experts.
