Lockhart Chisholm Trail BBQ

Food flavor was great! Service was fast Buffett cafeteria style but no one helped! I drove 200+ miles for BBQ as a day trip and was almost hungry leaving! First visit. I ask for brisket 1/4 pd automatically I could have done 1/2 pd. The tea was great. Was good visit just could have used help getting menu items. Or how the items worked. Felt a little rushed. Price was good for amount of food. 3 sides brisket and sausage less then 20$ just wished they asked 1::4 or 1/2

I'm heading south and will be traveling right through the Center of the Texas Bar-B-QueHeartland. I didn't want to stop but,wanted a life affirming dose of Central Texas Q.I have passed Chisolm Trail dozens of times on my way to The place. However,I thought this is it. The timing is perfect. I think " "I'll hit the drive thru taking about 10 mins and keep going".That's exactly what I did and I have to give my Buddy Emmett T. from San Diego credit. I thought,if this guy can come all the way to Texas in search of,then I can give Chisolm Trail some respect and my business today.I went with the sliced beef sandwich and turkey stuffed backed potato. Everything was about what I expected,maybe slightly better. It did the trick and I drove on down the road.Anyplace that's been holding its own for decades in " The" BBQ town must be doing something right.Give'em a shot if you need to drive thru .

Surly meat cutter. Just went thru there, after getting the self serve veggies, waited at the meat cutting station for a few mins until the meat cutter decided to grace us with his presence. Once he was there, he seemed annoyed to answer any questions and rushed us as we had meats cut. Food was good but his attitude ruined the entire experience.

Did the drive thru. Got a trailboss sandwich a side of beans and an order of fries. The trailboss is a brisket and sausage combo w some pickles and onion thrown in . This had some pretty good flavor to it. The beans were good but I thought the amount for the price was off. The fries just fries not bad but nothing crazy. Would like to come back and try just the brisket.

Tried the top 4 Lockhart BBQ spots today: Chisholm Trail BBQ, Black's Smitty's, and Kreuz Market. Chisholm Trail ranked 3rd for me. I got ribs (pretty good, but kind of tasted like turkey leg), brisket (bark was good, rest was a little tough and different consistency throughout), dark chicken (dry not much flavor). I wasn't greeted or even acknowledged until it was time to order. I had forgotten I went two years ago.

Food was delicious! Mashed potatoes were so good we forgot to take photos. Server was nice. What more do you want from a steakhouse?

The sausages were amazing !!! The barbecue was also great !! I stopped by twice once the brisket was a little dry the second it wasn't ! I'm not sure if I got the leaner meat either but still definitely recommend

Our first stop in Lockhart was here and it was packed with locals. Great setup filling your sides yourself and the pea salad was great!

This restaurant don't know how make your they let thing out order. I want be coming back. Go cheap and get cheap services. Third time charm. Bye

I used to come all the time because it truly was the best, but I don't think i will be coming back due to all the changes they have made- prices went up (understandable) but they put less meat in the sandwiches, they changed the regular buns to thick buns. Not good when there is not enough meat inside the sandwiches. Potato salad recipe changed also. Sweet tea is the same so that's a plus!-I'm still craving a brisket sandwich
