EAST AUSTIN.   Sam's Bar-B-Cue is an Austin barbecue restaurant that's widely considered to be essential to the city itself. This place was Stevie Ray Vaughan's favorite place for enjoying BBQ in Austin, and with its delicious beef brisket, ribs, sausage, chicken and even mutton, one can understand why. Local musicians often stop by here after playing a show nearby, so Sam's is a great late-night gathering spot. For one of the most satisfying dining experiences you'll ever have, stop by this popular East Austin restaurant.   (© 10Best)

Dissapointed
Very, very disappointed. The brisket and ribs were the DRIEST I have ever had. I wanted to like the place b/c of the location and funky/run-down atmosphere (and very genial help/hanger-ons), but I doubt I'll ever go again.

Ribs were best I have had in long while...
Home cooked meal, large plates and reasonably priced made for a great lunch! Only suggestion is eat inside, ever fly in a 2 mile radius wanted some of their ribs!
