FAQs About Midwood Smokehouse Lonestar
What kind of meat is used in the Lonestar?
The Lonestar sandwich at Midwood Smokehouse is made with tender, smoked USDA Prime brisket that’s packed with flavor and slow-cooked to perfection. It’s tossed in Midwood’s signature BBQ sauce, giving it that authentic, smoky Southern taste that fans crave.
What toppings are included?
This hearty sandwich is topped with creamy coleslaw and housemade pickles, which add a perfect balance of crunch, tang, and creaminess to complement the richness of the brisket.
Can I customize the toppings?
Absolutely! Midwood Smokehouse lets you customize the Lonestar to your liking. You can request to leave off the bun, pickles, slaw, or sauce, or even ask to have the slaw served on the side if you prefer to control the texture and mix of flavors.
What kind of bun is it served on?
The Lonestar is served on a soft, buttery brioche bun, which adds a slightly sweet, rich flavor and holds the brisket and toppings nicely. If you’re avoiding bread, you can order it without the bun.
Is it spicy?
The Lonestar isn’t inherently spicy. However, Midwood Smokehouse offers spicy sauces and sides, so if you’re in the mood for a little heat, you can turn up the flavor by requesting those on the side.
Does it contain dairy?
Yes, this sandwich does contain dairy. Both the brioche bun and the creamy coleslaw include dairy-based ingredients, so it’s not suitable for a dairy-free diet without modifications.
Is it gluten-free?
The Lonestar is not gluten-free in its standard form because the brioche bun contains gluten. However, the brisket and BBQ sauce are naturally gluten-free, so you could ask for the sandwich without the bun to reduce gluten exposure.
What side options are available?
You can round out your Lonestar sandwich with a variety of delicious Midwood Smokehouse side options. Choices include crispy fries, creamy mac & cheese, baked beans, coleslaw, hushpuppies, steamed broccoli, or a slice of Texas toast.
How large is the portion?
The Lonestar is a generous sandwich, featuring around 1/3 pound of smoked brisket, piled high on the bun with toppings. It’s filling enough to satisfy serious appetites and makes for a hearty meal, especially when paired with one of the available sides.
Is delivery available?
Yes — you can enjoy the Lonestar sandwich delivered straight to your door through Midwood Smokehouse Delivery®, making it easy to satisfy your BBQ cravings at home.
