So Much Barbecue Near Me in Austin, How To Decide?
There are so many barbecue places near me in Austin, that one can hardly drive around the block without running into some of the city’s signature cuisine. Here are some good questions smart Austinites and BBQ lovers ask themselves:
1. Is it local?
2. How long have they been around?
3. Is there smoke coming somewhere from their building?
To answer questions one and two for Pok-e-Jo’s, we are still locally owned by the same families that first opened our doors back in 1979. That means Pok-e-Jo’s is local through and through, and is a long-time member of the BBQ community here in Central Texas. If these two things interest you, then no need to worry about the other barbecue near me in Austin; you can just go to Pok-e-Jo’s!
If there is smoke coming from the building, that tells you something important–that the restaurant you’re visiting is actually cooking their meat there on site. Not only do we at Pok-e-Jo’s smoke all of our meats at each of our stores every day, we also make all of our sides fresh every day. We are passionate about bringing that freshness and quality to our guests, and with our five locations, we put the “near me” in the barbecue near me in Austin!
