Our Story
Built in Austin with Alabama roots and a veteran's commitment to serving others.
Good BBQ Company
More than a meal.
Founded by Army veteran Daniel Monplaisir, Good BBQ Company is built on service, family values and a genuine passion for sharing great food.
Daniel's journey from backyard enthusiast to pitmaster is reflected in every bite—from slow-smoked Texas brisket to Southern pulled pork, all brought together with house-made Aunt Clyde's BBQ Sauce.
Here, it isn't only about the food. It's about laughter, shared stories and the small moments that make life rich. Pull up a seat and let's turn every meal into a celebration of togetherness and flavor.
Good food. Good people. Good purpose.
