More than 200 Yelp reviewers sing the praises of Micklethwait Craft Meats, a casual eatery in Austin that specializes in classic Southern barbecue. Its simple menu belies the huge, smoky platters of food that wow patrons at Micklethwait Craft Meats. They all come from the smoker out back, which patrons are welcome to ogle (many even snap pictures).
One customer photo depicts the massive beef rib, a locally acclaimed favorite that comes with tender slices of house-crafted Andouille sausage, onions and peppers, and a signature sauce for dunking. The house-made sausage is another favorite, though a few links aren't nearly as filling as the Fred Flinstone rib. The aptly named slab of meat tips the scales at 1.5 pounds—and you can tell from just a glance. Enjoy your meal with a cold bottled Coke and save some room for pecan pie or a moon pie.
If you'd like to try this Austin eatery for yourself, Micklethwait Craft Meats is just a short trip from Lamar Union.
