day for Franklin's, imho. Just because there are so many great bbq places. If you can get great flavor, smoke, and tenderness elsewhere why wait for hours?

Austin also has other great food. My favorite is a small plate, cool place in old house on quiet end of 6th. For dinner, it's $45 and all you can eat of a wide variety of extremely tasty and creative small plates. You order three each, then three more, then three more . Korean spicy ribs unbelievably good.
