The Take
Order nothing. Dr. BBQ closed permanently in December 2022. Slop Score: 38.
Ray Lampe brought serious competition pedigree and Texas brisket focus to the menu, yet eclectic twists and a shuttered bourbon bar left the place mid at best. The building sold and the spot vanished.
Nostalgia buyers chasing celebrity pitmaster cred got the worst deal.
The Verdict
Skip it completely. Dr. BBQ delivered solid pitmaster cred on brisket but the permanent closure killed any chance of a visit. Slop Score: 38.
Brisket and burnt ends with simple sides would have been the move if the restaurant still existed. Anything involving the now-gone tiki bar drinks is irrelevant.
