Black's BBQ is one of the original favorites of Texas barbecue, with a longtime location in Lockhart (about 45 minutes east of Austin) where the Black family has been making barbecue for three generations. Now, an Austin location in the UT area has got a lot of barbecue fans in this city very happy.
Offering seven different types of meat - including brisket that is smoked for 14 hours - the Austin location also puts out unique spins such as Waffle Wednesdays. Every Wednesday at 5 pm, they serve chicken and waffles, Black's BBQ Style: Slow smoked over Post Oak Wood, the chicken stays juicy and the skin crisp with the smoky taste of Texas BBQ. The waffle is Barrett Black's unique creation with a crispy, slightly sweet, flaky exterior with a rich soft interior that contrasts nicely with the smoky, juicy chicken.
