Joe Riscky came to Fort Worth from Poland in 1911. He married in 1912, and in 1927, he and his wife opened up a grocery store/market in the area of the Stockyards. Eventually, they began serving barbecue lunches there, and the idea caught on. Today, the Riscky family operates several locations in the Fort Worth area, and this one is a popular location in Stockyards Station. Gone are the days of free parking at the end of Exchange Ave, but Riscky's is very close for those who don't care to walk a long ways.
It's table service here, and food is served by the plate, including combos. Barbecue offerings include brisket (chopped or sliced), beef ribs, pork ribs, sausage, turkey, ham, shrimp, and chicken. Catfish is also available, fried or smoked, as are steaks, salads, tacos, chicken fried chicken/steak, and some sandwich baskets. Sides include potato salad, cole slaw, red beans, or fries, and there is a small children's menu. They have a full bar and a selection of beer and wine, as well as the usual soft drinks. If you have room after all that, they have a few dessert options, but the cobbler is by far the most popular.
It's not really a "pig-out" meal so much as it is a "cattle-out" meal. The All You Can Eat Beef ribs meal is a great deal at $12.99, and most folks are typically done after two servings. If you're trying to go on the cheap, sorry, you're in the Stockyards, where things cost a bit more -- good for you that you're not at Riscky's Steakhouse down the block! -- but you can get a garden salad for $4.99.
