The Salt Lick BBQ in Texas

[@paultanner2007]

Ain’t nothing like Texas BBQ!!!

[@heyya6371]

Salute you sir🤘

[@SuperDarco666]

Been there in 2012, and i was blown away because of the taste..... it was so good.. I do alot of cooking myself, i love to cook and i am a educated butcher with a passion for food, and it was a dream that came true by visiting The Salt Lick. 10/10, if i ever come to Austin again, then i know where to go for dinner =) Greetings from Denmark

[@albertgarcia4580]

Best bbq I have ever had!! You have to go to see the place. Everything is so delicious and the desserts are to die for!!

[@fatimaroque2512]

Came here about 3 years ago, for a post-graduation FEAST. It delivered nothing short of my expectations! Absolutely delicious, want to go back. 😭😋

[@pamelaforray4318]

Bucket list for me that I got to finally enjoy. Fort Worth girl made the drive. This place needs to be crowned best Barbecue in America. Hands don!

[@warrenjbrown4898]

Nice to see a 'hands on' owner, not an absentee profiteer of what was done before him and by others. He knows everything about everything and is interested in it all, has a reason for everything. Very articulate, good humored, accessible gentleman. Good for him! Success deserved.

[@yupyup2761]

Warren J Brown the owner spends his time on the cellars getting drunk only to come back in the main building to drunkenly yell and fire employees. He is pleasant when he isn't drunk. He is also drinking/holding wine while the TV guy was eating his meal.

[@UncleRichard.]

I can almost guarantee the owner does not know how to "do" what he is talking about. I also noticed the wine, which is fine but its early in the day....

[@nottommy1002]

The owner is a sellout. Doesnt care about the restaurant anymore. Only cares about his land development and wine now. It's a shame

[@hunclemike]

That dudes reaction when he took his first bite was genuine......that BBQ looks UNREAL!!!!

[@josephsadowski4532]

The Best Barbecue ever no one can top this place Not anyone, I wish I could eat here every day of My Life. Thank You and God Bless your Mama and you for making this so darn GOOD!

[@rgion29247616]

One of my co-workers came back from Austin. He was at Salt Lick. Brought back his lunch. His Lunch SMELLED so WONDERFUL! No, he did not offer me or my other co-worker any taste. Cannot wait to get down to Austin.

[@cskillet2003]

By far the best BBQ I've ever had. I need to book a flight and go back!

[@isaiah1516]

Made the trip from Ft Hood, Tx and I have to say that it was absolutely worth the visit! This is true southern cooking and reminds me of the southern food I have waiting for me back home in Florida.

[@chickenpotpie3913]

This man loves offering food with layers of pleasure, from texture to taste 😋

[@kelefane6233]

This is the best BBQ in the world.

[@Raiderfn31]

I'm from N.C. so I have my preferences, but seeing people anywhere taking time and making meat sing sweet music is awesome and I tip my hat.

[@macthesmac]

I could eat this food everyday. My wife just ordered me a brisket from here for my birthday

[@zaneyone1]

The BURNT ENDS are the BEST....I love THE SALT LICK.

[@MrManas1995]

Its a VERY bad idea to watch this at 2 in the morning when hungry, and boy I just learnt that the hard way.

[@airheaded]

lol, i'm watching this at 1:19 am and craving bbq. lol!

[@maryhumphrey2236]

I miss going to this place! Some of the best BBQ!

[@antonskippy5376]

How I love the Salt Lick BBQ! My biennial trips to Austin aren't complete without a visit to this most venerable of Texas BBQ institutions. Long live the Salt Lick!

[@top-notchfrenchiesofhousto6345]

My mouth was watering the whole show 🤤

[@w.j.graterol3590]

Wow the best of the video was Scott way to treat people!!! Very nice person...!!! Now the ribs were Supreme!!

[@chuckstermcdaddy4170]

My wife & I love that place. Every time we are in Texas, we go there. Best brisket in the world. As a side note: I just discovered that Scott & I are distant cousins. Maybe I can get the family discount next time we are there.

[@tonistephenson1909]

Loved that place when I lived near Austin took the long drive once a month because it was outstanding..

[@samscharp3367]

Me and 4 of my buddies are doing a barbecue trip out to Texas this summer. Salt Lick is high on the list.

[@stanleysanders9099]

Better places

[@ruprect1]

I've been there 4 times in the past 2 years when I'm out visiting family. Texas has insanely good barbecue, and the Salt Lick is one of the shining stars. The original place near Driftwood in hill country is awesome.

[@savorydavy9980]

I live in San Antonio and made my way up there this week. IT'S AS AMAZING AS THEY SAY!

[@johnpaulsandoval6178]

Best Brisket Ive had was from The Salt Lick in Driftwood Texas. I ordered through GoldBelly and I received a 4lb Brisket, A large Bottle of BBQ Sauce and a generous amount of Smoke Sausage. All of it was an eye opener for me. Here in San Diego CA they dont have anything to compare to this Texas BBQ. Nothing comes close.

[@hungrycaterpillar439]

I had dinner 5 minutes ago, and now i'm hungry again after watching this video.

[@Coralita675]

Amazing Australia NEEDS a Salt lick like desperately. Thanks for sharing.

[@robertgoidel]

I have heard of this place. Seeing this video, sure want to go there. Thanks for this video.

[@StevenSilva916]

"Right on there, right on there, right now is..." 6:47 this got me for some reason hahaha

[@mysticmac6016]

+Steven Silva hahah nice catch so funny

[@gale212]

Had the pleasure of eating here a few years back. Great food and some pretty property. One issue with the video... Texans just don't know about and don't do burnt ends. It's a Kansas City treat. Where the gentleman in the video sliced is not the burnt end. But again, TX doesn't typically do them. Great place to eat. Everyone needs to go and to get a picture of that pecan fire in the dining room.

[@tommycarsonmusic]

I was just there yesterday and it was amazing an always. I cant wait to go back.

[@ksuhump]

I only recommend going to the Southern and Midwestern states....they never mess around with quality and the hospitality is always happy and always there for you!

[@keithlester9152]

I have been there and that bbq is the best. Those ribs are sick, I mean so good I'm sick just watching this video wishing I had some.

[@jesussaves6671]

Scott you're really doin it. I would have been there with you right now if I hadn't been 10,000 km away from you in africa. way to go'

[@NiteGambler]

"I'll pass on the bread???" If I'm the owner i say to Mr. Mooch....."I'll pass on giving you more free food".

[@123space8]

Right it’s almost disrespectful

[@ericramirez9240]

Oh god. Shut up.

[@redsammy7789]

Been there back in the 90's, picked up some beef ribs on our way to camp the little Arkansas river not far down the street. Salt lick has one heck of a place there, cool fence around it.

[@tradesy_6046]

I dream of owning a bbq joint one day...the salt lick looks like they have some taaaaasty brisket too

[@darrenleach3869]

I ate here last year, Amazing!!

[@Stittsy1963]

My family and I went there a few years ago and loved it! We got there early to make sure we had some place to sit and by the time we were ready to leave there was a line outside waiting to get into the dinning area. It was great! The employees even allowed me to take a tour of the pit because I mentioned I had an interest in learning how to smoke meats. I've been to the little restaurant at the Dallas airport, but to really appreciate their take on Texas BBQ, you need to eat at the original location. It was a nice drive too, so go there if you ever have the chance!

[@bucsrno1]

How could you not like this video!

[@MisterWub]

Went here about 9 years ago, well actually to the Round Rock location and thought it was really good. My cousin wanted to take us to Coopers but traffic on that Easter Sunday was terrible, so he reluctantly took us to Salt Lick instead. My cousin and the locals seemed to shit on Salt Lick and call it a tourist trap and pedestrian BBQ. Well that may be the case and yes over the years I've had better, but when you grow up in NYC and then move to Los Angeles, this place is food from god himself! When you drive up the aroma is mouth watering. I've had everything the host had and thought the pork ribs and sausage were the best. The sausage goes SOOO well with that bread and the BBQ sauce. I may have to mail order me some soon. Oh and the Pecan Pie...WOW!!

[@1EyedRooster]

Coopers is the true tourist trap. :-)

[@MisterWub]

John Barlow ha ha! I love Coopers had it mail ordered and eventually ate at the Fort Worth location. Please do tell why you think Coopers is a tourist trap? I love to hear people’s opinions on BBQ.

[@jonjoe8049]

you can tell the host had never had BBQ like this before. You see his face. LOL Salt lick is mmm mmmm goood.

[@nappyleon]

1 am and watching this..... I will have dreams of pork ribs and brisket dancing in my sleep tonight.

[@williamwalters9403]

Looks good,been to southside market in elgin and blacks in lockhart(was disappointed in blacks) this will be our next road trip!

[@nazilat9649]

I will be there in a week or so!!!! Totally looking forward to this :)

[@letsrideandchill9752]

My sister lives in Austin, its the best city ive ever been to, i truly love it! GREAT food there!

[@jw11432]

I've known of this place for awhile, my wife and I wanted to go try it (we live in Dallas) but never managed to make our way down there. One day we will. But I'm swelling with Texas pride right now.

[@briangleason5597]

As a long haul trucker it seems a lot of people are swelling in Texas.

[@Alutacon]

that's sick as hell. did you see that brisket at 5:49 while he's slicing it. that thing is crying sweet juices. omg wish i could get my paws on a piece of that!!!!

[@Alutacon]

ummm, i wouldn't taste as good

[@Alutacon]

i'm not so sure about that, i thought i was pretty funny

[@voodoochef100]

Alutacon I also thought it was pretty funny. Plus why would anyone want to listen to a Patriot fan when it concerns Ethics.

[@raycpronto]

Why would a vegetarian be watching this anyway?

[@TXDogg83]

Alutacon Salt Lick is good. Their sauce isnt the greatest (not that the brisket really needs any) but its real good for the sausage though.

[@jayala1992]

Man, I would love to go there and get some good barbecue. You can't get it anywhere else but in Texas. 😍😍

[@ronthunders6124]

this place looks TREMENDOUS!!! I wish So Cal had a BBQ culture like texas and st louis! I LOVE a good BBQ joint. I live in san juan capistrano and we do have a very good place for authentic BBQ called bad to the bone, but you can never have enough BBQ places

[@mambaregime]

Gotta go there, looks incredible!

[@bacongravys]

Looks delicious. I like how they just keep the menu simple and cook it really good. I found this while looking for a way to BBQ turkey.

[@yayarosing7298]

Mouth watering right now...😋😋😋😋😋

[@michaelcain2174]

I've never been to USA always wanted to go but it has to be the south , just for amazing food like this .

[@jw11432]

Yes sir. Texas is filled with so many different kinds of food. In most areas, you're going to find good BBQ across the state, that's a given. Go a little further east, closer to Louisiana and you'll find more cajun food that's just as good as NOLA's (because people from there move to Texas and bring their recipes with them). You can go further north to a town called Muenster and get some excellent German cuisine as the town is renowned for their German heritage. And don't get me started on the plethora of Tex-Mex options, as well as plenty of authentic Mexican food options. Of course the big draw of Texas is BBQ and Tex-Mex, but it's a huge state with much to offer. 10 countries: The Netherlands, Slovenia, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Macedonia, Luxembourg and Hungary would all fit inside Texas.

[@johneubanks5951]

I have never seen brisket juicing out like that! Awesome! I'm gonna try that place out one day!

[@bowesman1000]

I wish i could go there ! That place looks really cool.

[@smokefire_southern_eats]

Man, i cant wait to eat here. I live in Alabama but I'm betting it will be worth the drive!

[@michas.2821]

Did he say the coleslaw is with cabbage and vinegar? Sry i am from germany and i think that it´s sound like "weisskraut" because of the cabbage and vinegar. Sorry if i am wrong. I love bbq and visit the south usa from time to time.

[@texaswader]

My favorite bbq place!

[@ps3fanboy61]

Love this place been eating here for years now

[@chefgiovanni]

I'm sure it is good. Will get over there one day.

[@watertothepeople]

this is killing me! I want to be at that table right now!

[@18BIG78]

Went there in 1978 thru 1981 when I was in the air Force at bergstrom. Absolutely the best bbq around

[@jeremyhefner1139]

Ate here back in June awesome BBQ

[@ssimba2785]

My mouth is watering now.

[@SuperFourwinns]

What a great VIDEO!!!!!!

[@juanresendiz56jr]

Nice of him to put his finger in the freaking beans!!!🤣

[@stanhamilton6031]

Oh man! I know where I'm going on vacation! Hell Yeah!

[@gerganamendarova5637]

I'm drowning in saliva here!

[@abbassihm]

its bad to watch this when you are hungry and got no food in your house.

[@gerganamendarova5637]

Wise words dude :)

[@abbassihm]

+Gergana Mendarova thanks facts of life :)

[@w.j.graterol3590]

me too !!! hahaha

[@RobertRodriguez-ts3ns]

Gergana Mendarova fr

[@kevinkjer5431]

Best BBQ ever. really! # Oklahoma Joe's in KC, , the Shed in Mississippi. , anyplace in OK. kk La Habra, CA

[@jbscotchman]

Wow, that's one hell of an operation!

[@stevelogan5475]

Those sweet pickles with jalapenos have to be delicious, i would cut slits in the jalapenos to give the sweet pickles more heat , but i would eat them both & no better flavor than sweet & hot. I eat my chix wings with a combo of mango & habenero sauce on them, delicious, plus put some McIIhenney's tobasco hot sauce in your pinto beans as that is also delicious with a chunk of raw onion on the side

[@Lelliott1122]

OMG! I really, really HAVE to have some of this!❤️

[@916nando]

This is definitely on my bucket list

[@thomas4315]

The family dinner set is all you can eat. I wonder what the price.

[@aburrows2008]

those rips look amazing same with the brisket and burnt ends

[@epn1961]

One hour and 45 min wait , is cash only and byo boose but is all worth it... the food is very good and yhe people that runs this place are very polite

[@CuCulainn1]

that place looks awesome!

[@lukepate8749]

Have been here.Its AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)

[@simvrod]

This is the only bbq I’ve seen done this way . Very unique. Do you send to uk.😃😃

[@katoloniable]

Okay, I had some for the first time this past weekend and I can't stop thinking about how delicious the BBQ at Salt lick was. Remember to take take cash, cards are not accepted.

[@thomasbabb686]

Seen this place on man vs food as well. I NEED TO GO HERE.

[@danb.777]

“I’ll pass on the bread” lol

[@SimonZimmermann82]

This is interesting to me. He said chilling the food before putting it on again makes it taste better... i had the same experience just by heating up the brisket slices the next day in the microwave... for me, it taste better.

[@erichansen5017]

This guy knows what he's talking about. Bam!!!

[@martinkrastev8030]

Very nice!!

[@generalruckus]

feels like somebody who just walked in for some free food under the guise of an interview.

[@bigvato58]

Beautiful!

[@paulgrimm7842]

Show up early during the week . They are busy . It’s a light natural flavor .

[@brandonbrown2743]

lord have mercy the saliva is definitely flowing!

[@brucearner]

I finally went to Salt Lick in Round Rock the other day, $18.00 for brisket plate, it was terrible, the bread was the best.

[@dmitriygaskov8827]

Greetings from Russia. I need to taste it.

[@stevekloepping9634]

Sweet jesus this looks so good.

[@jeffparrish9089]

LMAO !!!! A long history .... from 1936. In Carolina we were smoking whole hog over hickory coals from the MID 1700's. THAT is history. Long before Texas was even thought of. Give me pulled pork, collard greens, potato salad and hush puppies, all washed down with sweet tea and banana pudding for desert.

[@blownonfuel]

You need to read some history my friend. 1700? Pff, those hogs you speak of came from Spain when the conquistadors conquered Mexico. Those hogs made there way up into North America and guess where they passed through first? Tejas!!!! Tejanos were making BBQ years before Carolina even saw a hog.

[@thefaceless8796]

This place looks incredible :( feel like I need to go to texas for the food alone.... my 1st daughters going to be born in 2 months so guess I have a few years until I plan a family vacation lmao but texas has officially made the list.... if theirs a metal festival down their its going down

[@heyya6371]

AUSTIN TEXAS every year

[@caburatti]

Bem diferente da churrascaria no Brasil. Deve também ser uma delícia!

[@Bot101101]

Freezer and plastic bags, that's how you know it's authentic Texas bbq.

[@1EyedRooster]

yup

[@rickycavazos8072]

Right I'm getting hungry now

[@user-fr6qn9xl9e]

Thank you for going to the original location in Drift Wood and not the one in Round Rock

[@CE11SCAN]

Im in london uk we aint got this i need to go texas i want brisket!!! And that sausage!!!

[@JMMT7022801]

I'm going to Dallas in April. I was thinking of hitting up the Pecan Lodge and Sammy's Bar-B-Q. 😊

[@jw11432]

As a Texan, it has occurred to me that I could probably make a killing doing authentic Texas BBQ in some other country.
