"The downtown Austin barbecue restaurant is one of those ever-reliable smoked meats destinations in the city that happens to be just steps from the convention center. Indulge in daytime and evening chopped beef, beef ribs, and all sorts of sauces. Takeout orders can be placed online or in person; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury
