Terry Black’s Barbecue

There’s no doubt Terry Black serves great brisket, ribs the size of boomerangs, and zesty jalapeño cheddar sausage. But this barbecue spot does sides and dessert like no other. Here, the cream corn has a perfect balance of spicy and sweet, with just enough capsaicin kept at bay by the cream cheese base. The smooth banana pudding is topped by a thick layer of whipped cream and gets some welcomed texture from wafer crumble. It all goes to show why it was only a matter of time before this Lockhart-born institution expanded into Austin and Dallas (and comes first in our barbecue ranking in its hometown).
