My kitchen...
Buffalo's (or whatever it is called) right outside 1604 and Bandera. Same center as Home Depot.
Fairly new place, but the Baby Backs are to die for.
that's what's up... been wanting to try this place out
I wouldn't say it's mediocre but it is overpriced.
BUT the Smokeshouse is by far the best for BBQ in the city. It's about two minutes from my work, so I should be dead pretty soon.
super gay
Chisholm Trail Barbeque...................Lockhart
FTW!!!
Not to be outdone by their local neighbors, Chisholm Trail serves up a tasty meal. The restaurant packs in a daily crowd made up mostly of locals and it too, has made the Texas Monthly list of Texas' best barbecue restaurants.
Chisholm Trail Bar-BQ has a cafeteria style serving line and offers a large selection of salads and side dishes to go along with the sausage, brisket, ribs, turkey chicken and fajitas. They also have excellent fried catfish on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
Another vote for Rudy's smoked turkey. I don't live in SA anymore, but everytime I go back for a visit, I gotta have some of Rudy's turkey. The stuff is sublime.
Outside of SA, the best BBQ I've had was at Cooper's Old Time Pit BBQ in Llano.
Sam's in Austin gets a nod too.
Had some wonderful BBQ in Johnson City, too.
Kinda hard not to find great BBQ in Texas, isn't it?

was driving back from austin friday night, detoured to lockhart...fml...every place was closed by 9pm...got lost on the way back...had to eat potato chips and a big red
..................... dayum that sucks. From dreaming of baby backs and brisket with all the trimmins.......to chips.
OK...went by Willards today...gotta say his ribs are pretty darn good. I was really surprised that for "Jamaican" BBQ he didn't even offer pulled pork...just the normal brisket, ribs, sausage, and chicken.
I think he cooks off site and the smoking bbq pit out front is just for atmosphere...the ribs were pretty heavy smoked...he claimed that he smokes his briskets for 48 hours and his ribs for 28...he must be cold smoking for part of the process. The BBQ I saw served (including mine) he pulled out of a cooler and sliced it and then nuked it to warm it up...I'm not saying that's bad because I will precook and warm too, but it was a little strange to see someone microwaving BBQ.
The only thing even remotely Jamaican about the Q was his sauce...he serves an oil/meat dripping based dipping sauce (not sugar based) that he has in mild medium and hot. Hot is definitely habanero hot.

Ugh, they ing suck.
First of all what's with the no barbecue sauce? If anyone makes meet so good that it's not necessary it certainly ain't them. I always use sauce, so for example when I make a steak on the grill the first four bites or so are without sauce, and the last four bites are without, everything in the middle is with.
God could come down and make barbecue and I'd still want to put sauce on it, it doesn't mean the meat isn't great, just that I like sauce.
Second, no sides. What the man, everything I eat has a side, from a steak with potatoes, or maybe shrimp, to a hamburger with fries, or onion rings.
ribs at smitty's in lockhart are sublime. If you like sauce, stop in at City Market in Luling sometime. Best in the world imho. badass mus based sauce. i buy it by the half gallon for $5
It's not that I'm in love with sauce or anything, I just like having the option, and don't care to eat at a place that thinks it's so great it doesn't need sauce or sides, especially when it isn't.
