You have a lot of options for barbecue in Texas, and there's no better time to sample a slew of them than Texas Barbecue Week. However, if you prize convenience first and foremost, make La Barbecue your top priority during the week-long feast. It's located only three miles away from Elan East, and it's joining in the fun until July 18.
Like the other eateries involved in Texas Barbecue Week, La Barbecue serves up a special plate in honor of this Texas version of Restaurant Week. Of course, La Barbecue's legendary brisket will star. The La Frito sandwich, the centerpiece of the Barbecue Week platter, contains chopped brisket, chipotle slaw, sliced jalapenos, gooey cheese, and, for some added crunch, corn chips. During Texas Barbecue Week, you can snag the decadent sandwich for $12.75. While you wait in line, you might even get a complimentary pour of beer, as is customary at La Barbecue.
