"Founded in 1967 by Scott Roberts and his family, this iconic Texas barbecue spot is known for its rich history and family recipes. It has become a staple in the Austin area, offering quality barbecue with locations in Driftwood, Round Rock, and airport outposts." - Brittany Britto Garley
"One would be hard-pressed to find a family that hasn’t taken a drive to the original Salt Lick at some point — but those up north can dine on the same familiar favorites at picnic tables next to a large playscape at the Round Rock location. It’s also near the Dell Diamond minor league baseball stadium, making it an easy mark for pregame dining. Kids under the age of 10 can order from a discounted small plates menu or partake in the Sundays-only children’s family-style menu pricing. There are indoor and outdoor dine-in services." - Erin Russell
"Two perfect activities: actual exercise and then indulging in meat, especially at the Round Rock offshoot of the iconic Hill Country barbecue joint. Takeout orders can be placed in person; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in services. Closest trail: Old Settlers Park (3300 East Palm Valley Boulevard, Round Rock)" - Darcie Duttweiler
"The Dell Diamond baseball stadium-adjacent location of the Driftwood barbecue restaurant is the place to go for all-you-can-eat family-style meals. Takeout orders can be placed in person; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in services." - Darcie Duttweiler
"No, it's nothing like heading out to the original Driftwood restaurant and loading up on piles of smoked meats, but if a quick taste of Texas is required, the airport's Salt Lick stand will do just the trick. It comes with a mostly Texas-wine bar too." - Nadia Chaudhury
