We’ve been to both several times and we actually just did a Step by Step guide to Franklin BBQ. Glad you got to truly enjoy some of the best BBQ in the world. The only thing I’ll tell you is that Brisket and Beef rib flavor will stick with you for at least a week. By the way could you check out our latest Franklin BBQ video as we’d love to hear your thoughts. Thanks Mike!

    I'm about an hour from Austin and 3 hours from Dallas. I can't believe I've never been to a Terry Blacks. You can bet that will change the first chance I get!! That charred crusty outside is called the bark and we love it so much and everyone always asks for it, that a lot of BBQ places started taking some of their brisket and chopping it up putting it back in the smoker to get it charred up and it's called burnt ends. I'm surprised they didn't give you dill pickle slices what we call hamburger chips and raw onion. The dill pickle is really essential to have that vinegar to help break through the richness of the beef.

    Texan here. You should check out the original Black's in Lockhart TX, next time. (Lockhart is often called the BBQ capital of TX). The original Blacks BBQ has been around since 1932, and the Black family is legendary when it come to BBQ. Terry Blacks was started by two 4th generation family members of the Black family and is a spin-off of the original restaurant. Their uncle, a third generation pit master and the current owner of the original Black's in Lockhart issued a cease and desist to his nephews in austin, for unauthorized use of the family name. Good ol'e fashion Texas Family Feud. I've personally been to Black's and Terry Black's multiple times, and can say that Blacks if far better when it comes to Brisket and ribs. Terry Blacks has better Turkey and amazing sausage.
