Not the best brisket I’ve ever had but pretty damn good.

I live 10 minutes from here. It’s good. I usually prefer the smokers at the gas stations.

I don’t get it. For all the hype you either get it and go home or eat standing up before heading to the Braves stadium

Looks really dry

It is “Bib Gourmand” rated, which is their rating for “budget” eateries and not for “fine dining” (though the food can taste just as good as fine dining!). They give this to cafes, BBQ places, some streets vendors, and so on.
>A Bib Gourmand is a Michelin Guide distinction for restaurants offering excellent quality food at a moderate price, focusing on great value rather than luxury, often featuring a three-course meal for under a set local limit (like $50 in the US or €36 in Europe). It highlights great cooking that is accessible, from trendy bistros to traditional pubs, recognizing places where diners can have a satisfying, high-quality meal without overspending.
No shade at the BBQ place, my issue is mostly with the Michelin guide trying to expand and capitalize off their own name like some internet influencer.

The brisket at Heirloom is good, not great. The spicy Korean pork sandwich, Korean fried chicken, smoked wings, tempura sweet potato, kimchi slaw however… 🤌
Go to Owens & Hull for brisket. And check out Springfield BBQ Co, he doesn’t do many ITP pop-ups but his brisket is worth the drive. Keenan’s Pit BBQ too, another OTP based pop up.

They have a solid brisket but I really like the rest of the menu with the Korean touches. The ribs, spicy pulled pork and banchan sides are where it’s at!

Looks better than any brisket I’ve seen in a restaurant. But I live in Wisconsin so take that for what it’s worth!

I enjoy the Smoked wings at Heirloom.

They have the best Korean Fried Chicken! I love the kimchi pulled pork sandwich too. The way Heirloom started is a cool story too.

That’s $20 for a slice of fatty brisket. That’s a crime I’m not saying they’re the best but there’s food trucks in Austin that will cost much less and be 100 times more satisfying than that measly peace.

$20 for all that isn’t bad at all.

Will say it time and time again this is the best bbq I’ve ever had. Currently hold the best restaurant, taco and wing in the city for me. Bonus for the best banana pudding I’ve ever had with Korean sweet bread on top. Shewwee

The state of Georgia and the Michelin tire company are where all people in Texas go for BBQ recs.

You messed up and didn’t get the Kalbi beef rib 😉 Only available on Saturdays and usually sells out in a couple hours. It is the single greatest piece of BBQ I’ve ever had. The gochujang marinade is so awesome.
Their brisket is good, but the more Korean-inspired items on the menu are where it’s at. The spicy Korean pork is just amazing.
