Micklethwait Barbecue & Catering

12 Restaurants To Make You Fall In Love With Austin Again - Austin - The Infatuation

"You knew this list wouldn’t be complete without a barbecue recommendation. In a city where getting BBQ often means long waits and/or hit-and-miss menus, Micklethwait strikes the right balance between quality and feasibility. The meats and seasonings lean classic, but the sides are where things get fun. Coleslaw gets an upgrade in the form of lemon poppy slaw, and the citrus beet salad tastes like something you’d find at a restaurant with tiny shared plates. Grab a couple pounds of brisket, a few slices of turkey, and Tex-Czech sausages, then load up on sides. You can enjoy your meal before your friends standing in the Franklin Barbecue line even reach the front door." - nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs
