Serving up some of the best BBQ Fredericksburg TX has to offer, Cranky Frank’s BBQ has been featured in both Texas Monthly & National Geographic. In a small, unassuming blue building, you fill find casual seating and an outdoor picnic-style area. What’s lacking in décor is more than made up for in food quality and portion sizes. Eating a meal at this establishment means you will definitely not walk away hungry.
Enjoy Some of the Best BBQ in Fredericksburg TX
Cranky Frank’s is well-known for their marbled BBQ brisket plates, with heaping portions and perfectly moist meat. The ribs are another favorite, with tender meat falling easily off the bone. Order your meat at the counter, where all options are smoked with mesquite and include pickles, onions, peppers, bread, and sauce. Choose from their original or German styled barbeque sauce. Other meat options on offer include sausage, chicken, pork, and chopped beef. Select two sides or heap a plate full of all of the sides you desire from the self-serving side order bar. You will feel like you’re at a backyard barbeque with dishes such as potato salad, corn, coleslaw, and green beans piled high on your plate.
Enjoy your meal in the outdoor eating area or take it to go and continue into downtown Fredericksburg where you can enjoy your barbeque in the grassy areas and pavilions of Marktplatz (Market Square).
