Franklin Barbecue

Editorial Review

It should come as no surprise that great barbecue can be found at a trailer on the frontage road of the interstate. Proprietor Aaron Franklin is to barbecue as homebrewers are to beer. He has created his own niche with craft brisket on par with the dispensaries in legendary Lockhart. Eating from the pit starts just before noon and goes until Franklin runs out of meat.
