The story
At Parish Barbecue, the team combines the best of two proud traditions. The pit masters focus on the details, prioritizing quality over quantity, and using old-school low-and-slow cooking methods that define Central Texas barbecue. Then they layer in the flavors, dishes, and culture of Louisiana cuisine. The result is a one-of-a-kind barbecue experience that stands out even in Austin’s competitive scene.
Parish Barbecue operates from a trailer located at Austin Beerworks Sprinkle Valley, at 10300 Springdale Rd. The setting is casual and outdoors, with parking available. Hours are Thursday and Sunday from 11 AM to 8 PM, and Friday and Saturday from 11 AM to 9 PM.
This dedication to craft and value earned Parish Barbecue a Michelin Bib Gourmand award in 2026, a designation for restaurants that offer good quality cooking at a good value. It’s a fitting nod to a spot that proves great BBQ doesn’t require a white tablecloth—just smoke, patience, and a clear sense of place.
