North Texas’ Favorite Family-Owned Bar-B-Que Brings Homemade Goodness in the Most Delicious Way

Soulman’s Bar-B-Que’s signature Friday Night Fish Fry is a beloved tradition year-round, but it’s especially popular during Lent, the 40-day period leading up to Easter. On Lenten Fridays, many Christians abstain from meat and turn to seafood, and Soulman’s will fry up a meal worth savoring.

“Every Friday from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., guests can enjoy our fish fry meals for dine-in or carry-out at all Soulman’s locations,” says Brett Randle, CEO of Soulman’s Bar-B-Que. “North Texans love our deep-fried fish fillets, crispy hush puppies, and famous sides—including our award-winning house-cut fries, Texas-style creamed corn, Southern-fried cabbage, or classic coleslaw. We fry our fish in small batches, ensuring every bite is fresh, crispy, and full of flavor.”

“As we celebrate 50 years of serving North Texans, we continue to listen to our guests—and they can’t get enough of our Friday Night Fish Fry!” Randle adds.

And with Easter around the corner, Soulman’s Bar-B-Que is making holiday meals stress-free for North Texans. Preorder a full family feast online and pick it up at any Soulman’s Bar-B-Que location before Easter Sunday, April 20, 2025.

“We take care of the cooking so families can enjoy a homestyle Easter meal without the hassle,” says Randle. “We pair our savory, hickory-smoked ham with our homemade mashed potatoes & gravy, green beans, and King’s Hawaiian rolls for a classic Easter meal that families will love.”
