This was one of my go to places for years. Last time I went the guy at the counter talked me into…read morethe sirloin that he said he cooked himself and how amazing it was. I took his advice, it was inedible. Undercooked and super tough. My friend with me had the same experience. We both threw it away. I went back and told the guy that recommended it. All he said was 'Sorry'. I was very careful to not be ugly just simply told him that the sirloin was tough and not edible. A simple 'Can I get you something else to make up for it' would have gone a long way towards me ever returning.

The brisket is fantastic and so is the smoked pork, but the links are very dry. I've been going…read morethere since I was a child and my grandmother will take us there on a Saturday.

I favor the simply spiced no frills sausage that oozes juice when you cut into it and the moist brisket. I time my visits to Lee County TX and Giddings so that I don't miss the City Meat Market. You should do the same.

I really wanted to like Black Gold more than I did. It's a beautiful, modern space with super…read morefriendly and accommodating staff, plus plenty of parking which are all great first impressions. But unfortunately the BBQ, which should be the star of the show, just didn't quite hit the mark for me. I came in hoping to try one of their lunch specials, only to find out they had recently discontinued them. I almost left but the staff kindly honored the deal anyway, which definitely turned things around in the moment. I ordered the chopped beef sandwich with garlic parmesan fries. While the food wasn't bad, it lacked the depth of flavor I expect from Central Texas BBQ. Even with sauce it didn't deliver that rich smokiness or bold seasoning I'm used to. That said, maybe I just chose the wrong dish. Their menu does have some intriguing options like crispy duck, ribs, an elk burger, and a full bar. I might give them another try during happy hour or if I'm nearby, but I wouldn't make a special trip just for the BBQ.

I'm partial to baby back over spare ribs. Brisket was decent. Fatty slices were much better than the lean. Sausages were a star. Both were moist and great amount of fat. Pickles and red onion were a nice touch. Overall, a different spot than the norm and worth a visit. Prices are by the half pound and generous.

Like even on a hot Texas day, if I'm going to sweat, it better be over a slow smoked juicy brisket! Not to mention the bread dough of the sandwich and the mexican corn and brisket mac and cheese! So walk in, turn to your left where the strong smells are coming from and wait about 10 min for your order- even on a busy Saturday. Great service and of course fantastic meat market. I buy oxtail from here hella cheap compared to the big chain stores or even Costco. Come by and eat outside under the covered patio- come hungry!!

This improved standalone store is pretty impressive. I brought my wife, who's from California and had never eaten summer sausage, here to get an official introduction to the delicacy.

The jalapeno and cheese version of any kind of sausage is definitely my favorite.
