la Barbecue is a Michelin-starred BBQ joint at 2401 E Cesar Chavez in Austin, Texas, serving Central Texas-style smoked meats with recipes exclusive to the restaurant. Chef and owner Ali Clem is a James Beard recognized culinary figure who has devoted her career to perfecting Texas barbecue, a legacy she built alongside her late wife LeAnn Mueller. The brisket draws consistent praise for its moist texture, deep smoky flavor, and perfectly seasoned bark. Sides like mac and cheese and no-sugar-added coleslaw round out the menu, with throwback dishes honoring LeAnn's German heritage. The space is welcoming for families, groups, and date nights alike, with outdoor seating and a full bar on offer.
