True Texas BBQ
West Austin's grocery-store smokehouse
True Texas BBQ is a barbecue restaurant in Austin, TX. Listed categories include barbecue, restaurant.
True Texas BBQ on Lake Austin Boulevard brings H-E-B's in-house smokehouse to the west side, cooking brisket, ribs, and sausage in the store with the chain's brisket rub. For a stretch of West Austin without a dedicated pit on every corner, it's a genuinely useful option — affordable, consistent, and hiding inside a grocery store.
The smoked brisket leads, with a real bark and clean smoke that outpace the supermarket setting, and the pork ribs come tender under a light glaze. Smoked sausage snaps, the pulled pork sandwich handles the fast lunch, and the smoked turkey holds its moisture. It's the rare grocery-store barbecue that stands on its own merits rather than its convenience alone — a west-side plate you'd order even if you weren't already there for the shopping.
