My FIRST Experience At The Famous Salt Lick BBQ!



This was the beginning of my road trick with Jeremy and Erica Yoder of @MadScientistBBQ. We also met with our friend, Brad of @ChudsBbq. There was a lot of fun to be had being on the road as we make our way to Kansas City to bring some Texas BBQ to another bbq loving city! But before we start cooking for others, we wanted to make sure we get our fill of barbecue first. Hope you enjoy this video as others to come from this trip!

  1. Salt Lick was one of my favorite places to go to. Not for the bbq (because its just ok) but for the atmosphere. I went back in March and the bbq was not even ok anymore it was horrible and the atmosphere wasn't good either. I will probably not be back again

  2. I would love a video from one of you guys on Salt Lick’s cooking process. Because it is very unique. They smoke it, store it, then finish it off on their huge pit and mop it. I don’t know if they mop on the smoker too or not. It’s a very unique and interesting way of smoking brisket.
    I’d just be curious on thoughts and opinions on mopping brisket alone. We don’t get a lot of in depth YouTube content on the Carolina style of BBQ.
    I’ve been to Salt Lick in Round Rock and thought it was really good. This was before I knew much about bbq. Would like to try the original location too.

  3. came across the Salt Lick by chance on a trip to Texas, and while I was lucky enough to eat at some of the most highly rated places from Dallas to San Antonio, the Salt Lick remains my favourite. And as much as anything else it was the service and the atmosphere that made me fall in love with it. It just felt very genuine and welcoming. Can't wait to travel across to the otherside of the world one day and go back!

  4. Native Austinite here. Salt Lick was significantly better years ago before they built the addition to feed the masses. Now, it's just commoditized generic BBQ designed for tourists.

  5. Looking forward to the videos from the trip! Haven't had KC BBQ in a long time and my recollection was that it was very sweet in the past, so will be interested to see what you and Jeremy think of the food there.

  6. I got into bbq after i moved from missouri. Ill have to check out a slew of places next time im back. Looks good and its probably best to know not to expect texas style, but it is sad when a place might advertise as it and its not

  7. Salt Lick was my first experience with real Texas barbecue (back in the 1990s). My future from that point on always pointed toward bringing that taste to the KC area. So I am opening my first Mule Kicker BBQ in Warrensburg, Missouri. Crazy times, but you, Jeremy, Matt at Meat Church and a couple of others are keeping me sane. Tell Jeremy to stop by when he's in KC next week!
