Having great barbecue available for both dinner and lunch is a rarity, even in Austin, but this descendant of Lockhart BBQ royalty does it seven days a week from its prime location on Barton Springs Road. The Texas trinity excels, including a jalapeño cheese sausage. There’s even a beef rib for big eaters and banana pudding on the way out the door.
