re: Austin, Texas...are there any must do’s or must see’s?

Look, I’ve been to all the bbq spots outside of Austin.

For history’s sake, and then experience it may be worth it. But for the actual bbq all the stuff in austin is better than anything you can find out there in Lockhart or wherever.

Terry blacks, Valentina’s, La Bbq, and franklins are all just as good as anything you can find on the outskirts.

I agree with this. The "Texas BBQ trail" is so cool and worth a trip if approached correctly. But the actual BBQ is just as good or better at much more accessible spots now.
