Been to the Salt Lick. So what else is there within an hour's drive of here? I know about Kreuz's and Mueller's but haven't been yet. Any other places anyone would suggest? (And not just BBQ places.)
Dorsett 221, Buda- 24 hours a day...Chicken fried steak and eggs is the best around.
City Market, Luling- Best BBQ in central Texas IMO.
Gristmill, Gruene- Already mentioned before, but I have to 2nd that. Great place, food, location and atmosphere. Its also right next to Gruene Hall and you can usually catch a live band pretty much any time of day over there. Worth the drive.
