Bbq Revolution Austin

As others have said, the biggest problem with BBQ Revolution is the logistics of actually getting it. Slim hours, select days, food supply. They can cause disappointment for people that really want to try it when they are in town. But this food.. I haven't had anything close to authentic barbeque since my vegan transition. Visiting Austin, with it's reputation, I knew I had to get some, and BBQ Revolution was at the top of the list in terms of recommendations. I got there at 8 on a Saturday night, halfway through their hours. Sizable line and wait, took about 30 minutes of chatting with fellow vegans and snacking on other snacks offered for the fest that was being thrown alongside the truck. I got the brisket (seitan), ribs (tempeh), mac n' cheeze, and BBQ beans. My God. It has everything that great BBQ offers, but distinctly lighter due to being veg based. It was SO satisfying. The brisket is falling apart and sweet. The ribs have a deep, smoky, complex flavor and are very hefty. The beans were a perfect compliment to slather on each main, and great enough to stand on their own. And the Mac n' Cheeze. The best vegan Mac I've had yet. It's so amazing. All together, this meal knocked me out for a little bit, but not the same way that the weight of a non vegan meal would. If you're vegan and haven't had traditional BBQ since you transitioned, the food with give you flashbacks to previous experiences, but will also make you confident in your choice, as I can confidently say this is the most evenly balanced, satisfying BBQ I've had in my entire life. Just come here, if you can.

We stopped here for a lunch date and were not disappointed. Being vegans from a small town known for BBQ this rocked our socks off. We hadn't had BBQ in 2 years prior to this encounter. We will be coming back here as much as we can. We had the combo platter which gave us a variety of all they had to offer. Ya'll it was so heavenly. Put this place on your go-to list.
