Duard Dockal, OwnerTHE ORIGINAL COOPER'S
PIT BAR-B-Q

We are the original Cooper’s Pit Bar-B-Q, established in 1953 by the late George Cooper, later purchased by Duard Dockal in 1983.  When Duard (pronounced doo-erd) took over the business, he decided to make the business more family friendly, and the rest is history.  We’ve been using the same delicious recipe for over 50 years now, and over the years we’ve become an institution.  Mr. Dockal and his great staff serve visitors from all over the world, and people routinely drive hundreds of miles out of their way just to have lunch in Mason.  Come by and try our unique ‘homemade’ barbecue sauces.

 In 2003, when Texas Monthly did its statewide review of the 50 best barbecue restaurants, our restaurant was among the top five, while other imitators ranked 39th at best.  Our brisket was also ranked the best in Texas in Delta’s Sky magazine.  With numerous write-ups in newspapers all over Texas and the rest of the country, the original Cooper’s Pit Bar-B-Q is without a doubt one of the best places to visit if you enjoy excellent barbecue.The smell and the sight will make you want more!

 If you have a large party coming in to eat with us, or if you just want to make sure we’ll still have what you want, please call ahead so that we can reserve the quantity and type of meat you desire, as well as space in the dining room.  We have all the trimmings to go with your meal, whether you want to eat in or take it home to your family.  If you’re out of state, and would like us to ship an order to you, call and we’ll figure out a price for you.  We’ll send our barbecue to you anywhere in the country.

 You’ll notice in our menu below that there are no sandwiches listed.  This is because we don’t make sandwiches.  There is no reason to be alarmed, however, as we have bread, onions, jalapenos and barbecue sauce available in our dining room so that you can make a sandwich to your exact specifications.
