Franklin Barbecue in Austin draws crowds willing to wait up to six hours for a taste of its legendary brisket, but don’t expect a second location anytime soon. Owner Aaron Franklin insists that expanding would ruin the magic—quality would drop, and sourcing enough top-notch meat just isn’t possible without compromising ethics or flavor. He’s all about keeping things balanced and authentic, even if it means sticking to one spot. For locals and BBQ lovers, this means the only way to experience Franklin’s is to line up early or find a friend to brave the wait. Would you wait hours for the best BBQ in Texas? #Food #AustinEats #FranklinBarbecue
