Black's BBQ
New Braunfels, United States
The barbecue joint Edgar Black Sr. started in 1932 now runs outposts across Texas, and this one sits on the 337 Loop in New Braunfels. Post-oak wood, low and slow, brisket and sausage cut to order at the counter. Open seven days, late on Fridays and Saturdays — the line moves when the meat's ready, not before.
Rudy's Country Store and Bar-B-Q
New Braunfels, United States
The New Braunfels Rudy's runs the chain's country-store-and-barbecue format — oak-smoked brisket, ribs and sausage by the pound, groceries and gas alongside — open early to nine most days, later on weekends. The whole idea traces to Rudolph Aue's 1929 Leon Springs filling station, which added barbecue in 1989.
