My fellow Texan and homegirl!!! I left at end of 3rd grade, moving to SATX, but always return to visit family and to stop at the City Market. Congratulations Tamron; all the best to you always
Salt Lick???? HAHAHAHA!!! Sure if you like tourist BBQ that’s been reheated and smothered in sauce. Might as well put County Line on the list then too. That center pit at Salt Lick is not a smoker. Its where they reheat it after they pull the food out of the fridge. Its a food warmer, not a cooker.
I can understand City Market in Luling and Coopers in Llano even though I don’t agree with them. Salt Lick is just a tourist trap though. No love for some of the best: Snows in Lexington, Franklin in Austin, La Barbecue in Austin, John Muellers in Austin, Louie Mueller in Taylor, or any of the places in Lockhart. Seems like a weird, short list.
Well done list….if it was possible. Cooper’s is one of the best. However, I will drive all the way from Buda, to have their peach cobbler!! That’s THE BEST I have EVER put in my mouth!! YUM!!
I try to refrain from negative comments…..but Coopers in Junction and Llano does offer great food…but some of their employees have the rudest attitudes that made me want to jump the counter and goober-slap some manners and customer service into their vocabulary……….They ruined the whole dining experience for me and my family…….I’ll never go there again and I have steered many an inquiring potential customer in a different direction…..
Texas does bbq the best way. Great-quality meat, simple seasonings, and little to no sauce on the finished product when it’s great as is. Pinto beans, relish (onions, pickles, and jalapeños), corn pudding, potato salad (Salt Lick-style), vinegar-based slaw, and some cold ones are all that’s needed to complete the meal.
Youre right. you didn’t please everyone with this list because you left out some great GREAT barbecue restaurants in East Texas and we know East Texas can chow down on their barbecue. A place called Country Tavern just outside Kilgore on Highway 31 needs to be featured on Texas Country Reporter
Coopers in Llano is not that good, that big chop is not that impressive and way over priced. I’ve tried it more than once on my way to visit my daughter when she lived in San Angelo from Austin. Not worth it. Black’s in Lockhart is one of may favorites.
Coopers should not even be on this list! Many places across the state put this place to shame! The pork chops are especially lousy! Don’t waste your time and money on this place!
My father who is Thomas Wallace was born & raised in Luling. My grandfather Mr. Plumer Wallace worked at the Mobil gas station until the late 80s..I live in S.A. and we frequent to Luling to come to the city market.. my heart is in Luling..Go Eagles!!
coopers is the best in my book and has been high on the totem pole for many years. Some of my greatest memories are being a little boy stopping at a road side park eating coopers brisket sandwiches…keep it up!
Coopers is real good, but the best I ever had was at the Loco Coyote Grill just west of Glen Rose. Never had better anywhere. It is the bikers best kept secret. Highly recommended!
