The Spot
Black's Barbecue in Austin operates under third-generation pitmaster Kent Black, cooking with the original Black family rub recipe over locally sourced post-oak wood. The approach leans on hospitality and tradition, carried from the family's original Lockhart operation into the capital.

The menu runs through Central Texas barbecue staples — beef ribs, turkey, and sausage links — alongside sides like mac and cheese, beans, and cole slaw, with peach cobbler for dessert. Beyond dine-in, the Austin location offers pick-up, delivery, and catering.

Black's operates four locations across Central Texas — Lockhart, Austin, New Braunfels, and San Marcos.
