What happened after Food Paradise?

Food Paradise's Big Beef Paradise episode featured Riscky's Barbeque, spotlighting the pit's slow-smoked beef brisket and other barbecue plates served in the Fort Worth Stockyards.

The restaurant's own website, checked 2026-09-08, still lists an online ordering option under the Riscky's BBQ name and links out to sister brands including Riscky's Steakhouse, Trailboss Burgers, and a barbecue and deli shop.
