Your favorites, your recipes, and anything else having to do with BBQ. Let's hear it!
I have a ton of places to add, but I'll start with my favorite.

A ways outside of Austin in the middle of nowhere. BYOB place where you can order family style combo platters that they just keep bringing you more of. Amazing sausage and ribs. But the real standout here is their brisket. So tender, so incredibly flavorful, just oh so delicious.
I highly recommend a trip to anyone who's visiting Texas, and it's a must-visit if you go to Austin.
They now have a location in Vegas, I've heard mixed reviews.
I've ordered from them online, which is great. I highly recommend ordering from them, especially the brisket.
Getting hungry now...

While you're in Austin, I highly recommend Rudy's
here, the self-proclaimed "Worst BBQ in Texas." There are several locations around Austin, and pretty much everything is good. They serve everything on butcher paper, and have lots of different meat and side items you can order. There are even handwashing sinks that you can use. I highly recommend the pork ribs(especially the St. Louis pork ribs) and the chopped beef.
Also, there is a town called Lockhart about 30 miles SE of Austin that seems to be comprised entirely of good BBQ restaurants. If you're looking for the real-deal, Texan barbecue places like you imagine them to be, check this town out.
