Authentic Texas barbecue is world-renowned, and Dallas’s barbecue scene is no exception. In fact, we conducted a study to find the best barbecue in every state, and we found that Dallas is home to the most highly-rated barbecue joint in Texas: Pecan Lodge. Whether you’re a barbecue fanatic who needs a steady supply of world-class brisket or you simply enjoy cornbread and pulled pork as much as anyone, you’d probably love Dallas’s food scene.
