WELCOME TO COUSINS
Calvin (aka “Boots”) and Beverly Payne opened the doors to their first Cousins Restaurant in 1983, serving Texas-size portions of hand crafted, authentic "low-and-slow" Bar-B-Q from recipes handed down for generations. Using only the freshest ingredients and hand selected hardwoods to give their meat a perfect slow smoke flavor, Cousins was a success, and now has six restaurants in the Fort Worth area. In 2008 Texas Monthly named Cousins Bar-B-Q as one of the Top 50 BBQ Joints in Texas!
You’ll feel at home at Cousins. Expect to be treated like family and enjoy our casual and comfortable dining room to eat, cafeteria-style, surrounded by a visual history of our Cousins “family” on our “Wall of Fame.”
At Cousins, passion is our first ingredient!
