At Brown’s Bar-B-Que in South Austin, true Texan barbecue is served every day from a tiny food truck bursting with delicious aromas. Stop in for a casual lunch and order from the decadent menu of slow-smoked brisket, ribs and sausage, and don’t forget to pile on the Southern sides, like homemade macaroni and cheese and cabbage and onions. Just about any of the meats can be made into a sandwich if you’re looking for a hands-free meal, and if you’re looking for a great deal on a lot of food, the three meat platter comes with two sides for one low price.

Once you place your order, grab a seat at one of Brown’s Bar-B-Que’s wooden picnic tables in the covered patio area and dig in to some real Texan cuisine.

Brown’s Bar-B-Que is open 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday and 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Thursday through Saturday.

You’ll discover a whole lot more than just po’ boy sandwiches at Turf N Surf Po’ Boy, a casual seafood favorite in the Austin area. This nondescript local spot may not look like much from the outside, but experienced locals know that it’s one of the best places in town for fresh and tasty fried fish.

You’ll find jalapeno hush puppies served alongside fried catfish po’ boys, and if you’re in the mood for something a bit lighter, you can also order your po’ boy topped with blackened mahi mahi or other grilled fish. All of the shrimp, lobster, and fish selections are priced at market values that change from day to day, but no matter which style you order, everything at Turf N Surf Po’ Boy tastes better when paired with the cilantro French fries.

Enjoy it all inside the colorful, bar-style eatery, or even order through the window if you’re looking to pick up food to go!
