About Hill Country: Taking its "cue" from legendary Texas barbecue establishment Kreuz Market and its distinctive, dry-rub style, Hill Country's brisket, sausage, ribs, and other meats are smoked low and slow over Texas post oak. The barbecue is served in butcher paper, counter-style by the pound, with traditional trimmings. Hill Country features a meat-smoking room, two full bars with an extensive menu of longneck beers, tequila and bourbon, and a state-of-the-art sound system and stage for live music celebrating the thriving Austin, Texas music scene.
Updated versions of classic Southern sides and sweets have been created by executive chef Elizabeth Karmel. An all-Texas wine list and marketplace full of Lone Star state favorites, such as Kreuz Market sausage, Big Red soda, and Blue Bell ice cream round out the offerings.
Directions: Take the N or R train to 28th Street, take the F, M, 4, or 6 train to 23rd Street. Hill Country is located on 26th Street between Broadway and 6th Avenue.
