The Icon of Texas BBQ
Louie Mueller Barbecue, a hallowed name among Texas BBQ aficionados, has been serving authentic barbecue since 1949 from its no-frills, family-run joint outside Austin. Best known for their tender beef brisket, ribs so big they're referred to as "dino," and hand-mixed sausage stuffed on site, today's current owner & pitmaster is Mueller's grandson Wayne, who is the careful steward of all their mouthwatering classics. Everything is made from scratch using cherished, legendary family recipes. How legendary? This Texas BBQ establishment has ranked 1st or 2nd in almost every "best of BBQ" lists Texas Monthly has published since 1975. Yeehaw!
