Terry Black's Barbecue Lockhart

This place was really nice. Located at the entrance of Lockhart, TX. They have a choice of seating for indoor and out. The pit area gives you the opportunity to watch how it’s all made which I thought was really cool. Everything is a pretty penny, but well worth it! The brisket was juicy, the mac n cheese was bomb, absolutely loved the jalapeño cheese sausage. I will be back! 😋

This place did NOT disappoint. Wife and I were immediately greeted by the staff who were quite friendly and communicable. Wife and I have been to every BBQ joint in town and other notable spots across Texas, and I was impressed with Terry's.

They had the usual BBQ sides but with a twist. The Mac and cheese was seasoned very well. Most of these BBQ joints don't season the Mac well enough. The potato salad was slightly different with potatoes cut slightly bigger than others I usually have.

I got 1/2lbs of the brisket and one jalapeno cheddar sausage. My wife got the original sausage. The brisket was moist and had a great Smoky flavor. The sausage had a slight kick but not overwhelmingly spicy.

Staff checked on us at our table a few times and even grabbed our trash. Staff seemed cheerful and lively, which is nice to see at any restaurant. I hope that lasts well beyond this "new" phase.

I would rank this up there with Smitty's Market. I will definitely be going back.

Amazing 🤩 you have to come try it! Very cool ambience too. You can see all the fire pits.

These guys know their stuff! Perfectly rendered fat on the brisket and amazing bark. Sausage was juicy but not too greasy. Ribs were tender, perfectly cooked, not falling off the bone but bite through tender.
Sides were delicious as well, but I’m more of meat guy so I won’t say too much about them.

I grew up in Lockhart area and the original blacks was always my favorite in town. Terry has a similar flavor profile but takes it to the next level. Great stuff and they are instantly the best in town.

Some of the best bbq in Texas. Brisket, ribs, turkey, and sausage all 10/10. Really good sides as well. Glad to see they have a location in Lockhart now. The best in the area for sure.

If you want to eat bbq like a Texan. Make a sandwich with the brisket and add pickles and onions and a little bbq sauce.

The beans, Mac and cheese, and banana pudding were all awesome.
