Blanco · Where to Eat
True Texas barbecue on Blanco's courthouse square, smoked over Blanco County live oak.
for the wedding weekend
The casual group feed for Blanco-corner weddings — seven days a week, no logistics required.
Old 300 BBQ holds down a corner of Blanco's courthouse square with the only credential that matters in Texas barbecue: smoke. The pits burn live oak cut in Blanco County, and the brisket, ribs, and sausage that come off them have earned write-ups well beyond the town limits.
For weddings at the Blanco end of the region — Carter Creek, Carriage Hills Ranch — it solves the casual-meal problem outright. Open seven days, counter service, communal seating: send the whole guest list after rehearsal without a contract or a headcount.
Sunday hours run 11 to 3, making it the barbecue answer to the farewell lunch before everyone drives back to the airport.
