Round Top’s beloved BBQ spot says goodbye

Round Top is losing a piece of its soul as Merritt Meat Company, the BBQ joint that’s been a gathering place for locals and visitors alike, is closing at the end of August. This isn’t just about food—it’s about the memories, stories, and the legacy of pitmaster Lee Ellis, who made the place a true community staple. Folks have traveled from across the globe just for a taste. While it’s tough to see it go, the spirit of Round Top BBQ lives on through the people and the stories shared. What’s your favorite memory from Merritt Meat Co.? #Food #RoundTop #TexasBBQ
