Lockhart is the Texas BBQ capital

Published by Chris | Filed under Food & Drink

A couple of weeks ago I went down to Lockhart to check out the BBQ that I’ve heard so much about. Lockhart is small town about 30 min south of Austin, on hwy 183. It has 4 of the best BBQ joints in Texas, so they say. It also has a cool looking old downtown. I opted to try out Kreuz Market because it was the one that I’d heard most about. First of all, the place is huge, you actually buy your meat in the smoke house and then go to another counter to get your sides. They don’t have BBQ sauce because they believe that the meat should “stand” on its own. I got some brisket and ribs and enjoyed my meal at one of their many tables. I liked the vibe of the place but wasn’t blown away by the food or the price. But, it was well worth the trip. I’ll have to go back next month and try one of the other 3 BBQ joints.
