Black’s Bbq - Austin

The first time I have eaten at this place, I think as far a meat goes it was good. I have had better bbq before here. The bbq sauce was more of a vinaigrette base and more tangy than sweet. The service was ok, one lady was friendly here but the gentleman was not. I would go here again and try the rest of the meat options when I’m back in Austin.

When I first moved to Austin, one of the initial BBQ joints I tried was this one, which indisputably tops my list for beef briskets. My visit on a Sunday afternoon was marked by a short queue and quick service, accompanied by the option of both inside and outside seating. While I'd rate the steak ribs and pork ribs a moderate 3 out of 5, this venue is more reasonably priced compared to other BBQ places I've tried in the city. Plus, with Amy's Ice Cream situated at a walking distance, it is a convenient spot to enjoy a dessert afterward.

Excellent BBQ found here! Staff were friendly and helpful. Place was clean and comfortable to eat BBQ. Got the brisket sandwich with peach cobbler. All around great place to enjoy BBQ!

The BBQ was fantastic . It was difficult to decide what to get because it all looked so tasty. Ended up with jalapeno cheddar sausage, brisket, mac and cheese, and green beans. So good.

Black's BBQ has the same great taste as all the expensive BBQ places, without the price. We were able to get 1/2 pound turkey, 1/3 pound brisket, half a chicken with 5 sides for around $40. The turkey and chicken were moist and almost melted in your mouth. The lean brisket was still pretty fatty, but tasted good. The sides are larger than what I expected to get. The green beans surprised me with their flavor and non-waxy texture. The indoor dining area is quite small and the line was out the door when we got there. Overall, would eat here over the expensive BBQ places.
