Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Hands down best I’ve ever had. Not even close.
- Franklins BBQ lives up to the hype and then some for sure!!! ... Def best brisket hands down and it's not even close. Loved his espresso sauce!
- Franklin BBQ in Austin (I ate the day before) was on a different level.
- I had been to Franklin the day before, brisket was on point.
- The best? Franklin in Austin. Get there by 7am and you might have a table by noon.
Cons
- Stopped by here on my last day in Austin since Franklin and La Barbecue had long lines.
- Franklin's may have the best brisket, but not the best place...
- I did La BBQ the day after I did Franklin's. Franklin's has better brisket. But La BBQ has better everything else in my opinion.
- Franklin’s sides are crap
- Meat was good but they lack on sides.

Yeah you can’t go wrong with Franklins…. Best bbq ever…. I even ordered a brisket online to test the consistency… $260 for a 5lb brisket…… best brisket ever ……. I had to make a trip to Texas to get some paperwork and franklins was down the street and Terry blacks not to far from franklins…. So I spent a little over $500 between the to and asked them to tightly wrapped it up because I was taking this on a plane….. when I got home (2.5 hr flight ) we ate a little and then vacuum sealed everything else and threw it in the freezer….everything was awesome…. From month to month….arguably even better……
Best brisket I’ve had by a mile. La Barbecue was previous tops on my list and Franklin is a clear notch above somehow. We didn’t need sides, just a giant pile of meat. 11/10 and somehow there was no line.

For context out here obviously everyone talks about Franklin's, interstellar, Terry blacks and sure theyre good
