I would be shocked if it was just for Oliver. Dude's been committed to Houston for the longest time - no way we get even a visit from this kid.

It's gotta be someone else.
 
Ol Blake James is going to have to start a new fundraising campaign just to cover Kuligowski's Texas BBQ tab.

Dlink, walk around downtown, alongside the river (start at Barton springs imo). If you get up early enough you can eat BBQ at Franklin's but in my opinion if you go to east 5th (just the other side of i35) you can eat at La Barbecue with no lines and it's pretty **** good. Google a bar called Stay Gold, the BBQ truck is in their parking lot. Texas beer ain't good but catch live music on Rainey street and check out the mean-eyed cat or blackheart's for a brew or two.

While I will slightly disagree with that in general, I'll add that if OP likes sour farmhouse beers, Jester King is one of the top breweries in the world in that style and located just outside Austin. Real Ale is nearby and prominently featured in most Austin restaurants... it isn't bad either. But yeah, most of my favorite Texas breweries are DFW based (Collective, Martin House, Peticolas) or Houston (St Arnolds).

We know he didn't eat at Franklins in Austin.

I'm headed to Austin tomorrow morning. What are some landmarks I should visit. Where should I eat. On visiting for a day then back to the valley :(

Stop in Lockhart on the way in and eat at all four BBQ joints there. Black's, Chisholm Trail, Smitty's, and Kreuz's.
 
Franklins is the best BBQ in Austin. But if you don't get there by 11:00 forget it the lineup is 1:00 hours and the food is gone by 1:30. They litterally come out and count the folks who will get food and the rest home. I've seen poeple lined up for 30 minutes and told to go because there is no more food.

I'm here in San Antonio/Converse now. Headed to Austin in a hr. I got a lady friend with me. She wants to go to the bullock state museum (out of all things to do I don't know why she chose that place)... I'm thinking about dropping her off and go look for the bbq women and brew you guys are raving about : )

I'm not familiar with the brew you're speaking of. How does it compare to Shiner? There's not too many options in the valley. I got accustomed to Montejo & Modelo since they don't serve yuengling down here and Heineken they rarely have at their drive thru's. Shiner is good though and the commercials make me laugh every once in a while lol.
 
Texas doesnt have sh*t on KC BBQ

Texas knows brisket!

I agree with both you guys. Being blessed to eat bbq all over. Nothing compares to a texas brisket. Kansas City them boys don't play around when it comes to Que. KC, St. Louis, Memphis are the top spots for bbq for me. Texas and Arkansas round out my top 5, with south carolina on the outside looking in.
