The Black family embraced their generations-deep heritage by opening their legendary meat-market style spots, using time-honored recipes passed down through four generations of pitmasters. They keep their smokers running 24/7 to perfect the art of smoking meat, so much so that their Austin spot was named a Michelin recommended restaurant in 2024!

TEXAS BARBECUE & ALL THE FIXINS
When their doors open, San Antonians will be able to step tight up to the counter! You’ll get to select your smoked meats straight from the chopping block, from juicy brisket to tender beef ribs and sausage. Then, round out your tray with delicious sides like mac-n-cheese, pinto beans with brisket, and Mexican rice, plus classic desserts like banana pudding and peach cobbler!

OPENING DETAILS
Terry Black’s San Antonio is expected to open in Q4 of this year (exact opening date TBA)! They’ll be located just about half a mile from Pearl, home to several Michelin one-star and Bib Gourmand spots, making this corridor an absolute must-visit for local foodies, visitors and Texans craving a tray of delicious BBQ classics! lovers.
