Driftwood, TX

Come see us where it all began! Amid rolling hills, abundant wildlife, century-old oak trees, and native wildflowers, you can experience Salt Lick history firsthand. As you enter the restaurant, you’ll be warmly greeted by the famous barbecue pit where we’ve smoked every cut of our meats since 1967.

We’re only a short, scenic drive away from Austin. So you’ll be enjoying our legendary mouthwatering barbecue before you know it, deep in the beauty of the Texas Hill Country!
