Black's BBQ, Lockhart Black's claims to be the oldest barbecue house in Texas continually owned by the same family. Since 1932 the Black family has been firing up these brick pits every day for lunch and dinner. Today, Norma and Edgar Black tend the post oak fires to provide Lockhart meat eaters with the stuff this town is famous for. Blacks has also had its share of presidential attention.
During LBJs term, the President called on Blacks to provide
barbecue sausage for a function at the Capitol building. Under the watchful
eye of the Secret Service and the Department of Agriculture, this Lockhart
operation cooked up some tasty links that were flown directly to DC. This is a sit-down restaurant, a little prettier than most smoky joints. Decorated with Texas paraphernalia and photos of high school football teams, Black's is a comfortable place to enjoy some of Lockhart's finest. You can select from brisket, pork ribs, chicken, and ham, or try Black's own homemade beef and pork sausage with a ladle full of caramel-colored sauce on the side. Location:215 N. Main St., Lockhart Tel. (512) 398-2712 Open: daily Return to Texas Barbecue Guide
