"Not to be confused with Terry Black's BBQ (another legendary Austin meat temple) this is the "Original Black's BBQ," tracing its roots and recipes back to the 1930s, in nearby Lockhart. The meat here is quite simply the stuff of legend. As is so often the case in Texas, the brisket is the headline act: slow smoked, and served with a great bark. But the Flintstone-style giant beef ribs are a real treat too, weighing in at over a pound each. Underrated but equally delicious are the awesome smoky barbecue chicken and the melt in the mouth, how-did-they-make-this-so-moist turkey." - Jonathan Thompson
