The Best Bbq In Texas! Lockhart Tx - The Barbecue Capitol Of Texas
Alrighty fellow Travel Dons, It is time to loosen the belts and pop open a nice cold one. Are you ready for the Best BBQ in Texas?! In this video I am taking you on the ULTIMATE Barbecue excursion in the great town of Lockhart Texas! Known as the BBQ Capitol of Texas, Lockhart is a 19th century historical town that has all the charm and flair of and old western town.
The history of Texas Barbecue truly begins in Lockhart, in 1875. A man named Jesse Swearingen opened the first meat market that first served barbecued meats on the regular. From there it has taken off due to great BBQ family names such as, The Kruez's, The Blacks and many more. Come along as I stop at four different barbecue joints in Lockhart: Blacks Barbecue, Kruez and Smitty's Meat Markets, as well as Chisholm Trail BBQ. It's gonna be a meaty affair. So come on down for the Best BBQ in Texas

If you love Texas BBQ or BBQ in general then this video will be for y'all!!!
Born and raised here and eat at all locations often with the family but when I'm by myself I find myself in the drive thru at Chisholm Trail BBQ ordering their smoked ham sandwich on homemade wheat bread, a side of cucumber salad and a large sweet tea

Chisholm Trail was the best service. Love that place.
FYI, Kruez is pronounced "Krites." It's German. (I only know this bc I grew up there and all the locals knows the pronunciation.)

You missed Barbs BQ it’s the new hot spot a block behind Smittys. It is in Texas Monthly and winning awards! The 25 year old girl that runs it was the pitmaster at Goldees in Ft Worth.

That’s pretty cool that the Lockhart got named the place of BBQ in Texas. Omg that piece of meat is huge! I would be eating on that for days! And yes regardless of the way you say pecan, it still goes down the same way!

For some reason, it doesn't matter what language I try, I tend to go Spanish in the accent. I don't know why.
All the old standard BbQ places are really not that good anymore even in Lockhart. They rest on the laurels of their past reputation and don’t produce as premium of product as the new school places. Kruez and Smittys bbq are a 6 or 7 on a scale of 1 to 10 compared to someplace like Franklin or the other new guys.

While I admit I'm partial to some of my spots in Austin over Lockhart nowadays, for those that aren't from Texas originally like myself. I feel like Lockhart is a great introduction. Also the big boys in Austin: Franklins, Terry's, LA Barbecue, etc...are starting to have longer and longer lines.

Just my opinion because im from the area, Lockhart has the most overrated bbq in Texas. Every other town around definitely has better bbq.
