pro-tip - save room for dessert at Kolache Kitchen two doors down, and then load up your pantry at Emporium Spice Co. next door.   but Pustka will be moving to a brick and mortar location pretty soon in Temple

Going to be in Austin this weekend.  Need some recs; where is a couple go to BBQ places?  I do not want to stand in line for more than 30 minutes (yes I'm high maintenance these days) I usually go to Stiles Swith or Micklewaith (when they had the trailer) we are staying near the capitol but we do have a car to drive around.   Just looking for some suggestions.

Buddy of mine went to Pecan Lodge against my recommendations and holy shit BBQ prices are out of control. They're charging $155 for the trough (their version of a sampler platter) that feeds 4-5 people. Used to be $75. Their desserts are $8 and the cookies are $4. Used to be $3.75 and the cookies $1. What the fuck!

Moreno's, but call first as they're moving to a new location and may be closed. 

Brown's on South Lamar for pork ribs.

Green Mesquite for Chicken Wings, icy cold Shiner Bock/Fire Eagle Pale Ale, and the best urban beer garden in Austin.

If you're up for a drive, Opie's on 71 and get the butter beans

Also, BOOMER!

Went to LaVaca in Victoria in June and was very underwhelmed.  It was decent, but nothing to write home about.

I agree........but..........someone is paying it or they couldn't charge that amount.  A lot of folks have definitely been priced out.

You can still go to micklethwaite and get your food in under thirty minutes. I went there for Father's Day and it was probably twenty minutes or so. As other posters mentioned, Mum's and Brown's are both great. Mums for pastrami and brisket and Brown's for ribs, sausage, and poultry. Both are better than stiles switch in my opinion.
