Lockhart Smokehouse BBQ is a cozy, inviting spot serving up mouthwatering brisket, tender ribs, and flavorful sides in a true Texas BBQ experience.
"With three locations in DFW, Lockhart Smokehouse makes reliably good, Central Texas style barbecue accessible. The sausages here, shipped in from the legendary Kreuz Market in Lockhart, Texas, are an especially yummy choice." - Courtney E. Smith, Amy McCarthy
"Home to some of the city’s best barbecue, Lockhart Smokehouse brings a Hill Country pedigree. Owner Jill Grobowsky Bergus’ grandfather helmed the iconic Kreuz Market in until the 1980s, and it’s still in the family. This spot has its sausages shipped in fresh from Lockhart because there’s no need to improve on a classic." - Courtney E. Smith
"Lockhart Smokehouse is the spot for heat lovers. The barbecue sauce has a kick, the brisket coleslaw packs a punch, and even the cayenne pepper-dusted deviled eggs come with little bits of the shreddy beef. Their Oak Cliff location brings together a nice mix of the neighborhood, where white-collar workers roll up their Jos. A. Bank shirt sleeves and local regulars swap chisme while eating off restaurant-supplied butcher paper. Lockhart Smokehouse also comes from a powerful barbecue lineage: it’s owned by a cousin of the people who run Kreuz Market in Texas’ barbecue capital (you know, Lockhart)." - lee escobedo

"Lockhart Smokehouse Eating here might get a little messy, but it’s worth it. One of Dallas’s favorite BBQ spots smokes its meats over Texas post oak, serves them wrapped in butcher paper, and pairs them with cold draft brews—and the crowds go wild. Savor classics like brisket, sausage, pork chops, and ribs, plus the specialty Kreuz Market sausage (this is the only place in town that stocks it), all sliced to order, fresh off the smoker, and served by the half- and full-pound, so it’s easy to mix and match. The so-called TX Vegetarian section cheekily lists chicken and turkey, but there are several sides for noncarnivores, including mac-and-cheese, potato salad, and two kinds of slaw. The atmosphere is casual—think counter service and shared tables—but the clientele always leaves happy (and slightly perfumed by the smoker)."
