KXAN is running a story about the Black's  BBQ feud.  I have no idea how much is truth and how much is fiction:

Black's & Terry Black's

As someone who recently moved into Central Texas from East Texas, this was a good read.  I admit having seen the various signs for different Black's BBQs and being confused so it's nice to have that story clarified.

I watched the documentary the other day.  It was done pretty well and explained the feuds between the Kent Black and his nephews and between the Schmidt family.  

A couple years ago, I was talking with Kent Black at ACL Fest.  He was there doing some barbecue demonstration.  My wife walked up and introduced herself.  Upon learning who he was and not knowing the difference between Terry Black's and Blacks', she mentioned the nice new barbecue joint that had recently opened in Lockhart.  I can't imagine the look on my face when she said that.  Kent went on to explain how the nephews had essentially screwed him and their grandmother by banking on the Black's barbecue name.  I had to explain what was up afterwards.

After watching the documentary, my wife said "now I don't feel bad about what I said to Kent Black - he's a real asshole."

Gave Louie Mueller another shot. Split beef rib and a sausage link. I take all previous overall statements back. This meal slammed.

/edit: I hopped in the car an downed six fiber supplements.  Then we played a game of can we make it to the DoubleTree on 290/I35 before things go south. We made it . . . just.  Lunch has been liquidated.

Uh, we gotta talk

 

Weavers BBQ is one of the best bbq joints in Texas. Def in my top 5. Better than Tejas, better than Truth, better than Corkscrew, better than Pinkertons. Best bbq ive had in SE Texas (only spot i havent tried is Redbird though).

The Texas Trinity Platter included three 1/2 pound meats and two sides and a drink for $40. Also got the smoked bread pudding. They brought out a Texas twinkie and 1/2 pound turkey gratis. Theyve been open for 5 years and are considering a move in the near future to I45/242 area.

 

The owner and his buddies used to be hitchhikers (and from what I can tell, maybe used to use meth) across the US. One day they bought a smoker and started selling chopped beefs on the side of the road. That snowballed into this. 
 

Brisket - fantastic. Held together perfectly but still tender and fell apart with slightest pull.

Ribs - top 3 best ribs ive ever had. Exquisite.

Sausage - good, went great with their signature yellow dijon sauce. 
 

Smoked bread pudding - insane. I dont even like bread pudding that much and this was awesome, especially for the price.

 

Texas twinkie - ohhhh boy. Better than Hurtado and hutchins. Why? Because they use half jalapenos (they charge $10 for 3 twinkies) and candy their bacon first! Man, might be the best bite of food ive had thus far in 2025.

 

turkey - kept it in box, havent tried yet. Taking it home. 
 

The price tag for that pic above? $46. I didnt even finish half of it. Go before people find out
