Cattleack

Cattleack is the go-to barbecue spot for catering large groups in DFW, so don’t be surprised if you find it at your cousin’s SMU graduation party. But the restaurant is the move for a BYOB weekday lunch (Wednesday through Friday, only) for juicy charred brisket that comes in you’ll-definitely-have-leftover portions. If you’re the designated table leader, tack on some pork ribs, burnt ends, and their deliciously-moist turkey for an ideal spread. It’s also worth checking out on the first Saturday of the month, the only weekend they’re open, for specials like pastrami brisket and smoked wagyu tenderloin.
