Thanks to a recommendation from the lovely Katy we headed away from Austin towards the small town of Lockhart Texas and Smitty’s Market. An amazing place with the best BBQ I have every eaten. All the meat is done in the cookhouse at the back of the building where huge brick ovens spend all day long barbecuing. You order your meat by the pound, we chose ribs & brisket and it’s all served up on sheets of grease proof paper. You head through to the huge warehouse style dining room set out with long picnic benches and collect your side orders (coleslaw), sodas and as many napkins as you can carry to clean up the mess you make of yourself eating this delicious meal. We have definitely been spoilt, I don’t see how anywhere else along our route could possibly do better.
We finished with a wander around the pretty village square of Lockhart and checked out the shops.
