Franklin Barbecue

Renowned for its mouthwatering smoked meats and long lines, Franklin Barbecue, in Austin, is a legendary destination for barbecue aficionados. Franklin Barbecue is open only for lunch from 11 a until it is sold out, which is usually even before it opens. This is the reason you'll see a serpentine line outside the restaurant right at 8 a. From perfectly charred brisket to succulent ribs and tender sausages, every bite here is a revelation of flavor. Despite the wait, the atmosphere is electric, with the tantalizing aroma of slow-cooked meats filling the air and creating an unforgettable experience. For those seeking the true essence of Texas barbecue, Franklin Barbecue on East 11th Street is a must-visit culinary pilgrimage.
