Hey Austin, get ready! There’s a tasty new place in town called Black Gold, and it’s set to elevate your barbecue experience to a whole new level. This fresh eatery is brought to you by the culinary mastermind Mems Davila, who made quite a name for himself with his food truck, Wunder Pig BBQ. So, if you’re a fan of delicious smoked meats, you’ll want to keep reading.
First off, let’s talk a bit about the name itself. Black Gold pays tribute to that glorious char you find on a well-smoked piece of meat. As the website notes, “Black Gold” is a nod to the famous saying about oil in Texas. But in the world of BBQ? It’s all about that rich flavor and craftsmanship that defines Texas Barbecue.
Austin is buzzing with excitement as Davila aims to bring something new to the culinary scene. “We didn’t just want to open yet ANOTHER smokehouse for Austin. It’s time to level up,” the website states. And if you ask Davila, he and his team are eager to introduce some fresh elements to the Crestview area, paving the way for a unique dining experience.
So what can you expect on the menu? Get ready to have your taste buds tickled with some mouthwatering offerings! Instead of serving up a traditional tray piled high with meats and sides, Davila is pulling in flavors inspired by his Tex-Mex roots. Some of the highlights on the menu include candied pork belly burnt ends, smoked fajitas, and you won’t want to miss the Wagyu smash burgers. Feeling adventurous? Try the smoked duck in a poblano cream sauce. Trust us; it sounds like a must-try!
And for those with a sweet tooth, Black Gold doesn’t disappoint. You can indulge in their Big Red ice cream and some churro-inspired desserts that promise to be just as fantastic as the main course.
But wait, there’s more! The space is just as impressive as the food itself. Imagine sitting in a beautifully designed restaurant, complete with custom smokers operated by the talented pit masters Stevie Ray and Jimmy Vaughan. There are three separate outdoor areas for you to enjoy your meal al fresco, and even a stage for live music! And let’s not forget the full-service bar—because what’s BBQ without a good drink to wash it down?
Davila put in some serious work to make this happen. After purchasing the space for a whopping $2 million, he kicked in another $2 million to transform the former mechanic shop into the sleek BBQ joint that now stands ready to take on North Austin. The design features a stunning palette of black and gold, making every dining experience an eye-feast as well.
Now that we’ve got your taste buds tingling, let’s talk about when you can check out Black Gold for yourself. The grand opening is set for Saturday, November 9, so mark your calendars! In the meantime, the restaurant will be open from Wednesday to Sunday, starting at 11 a.m. to midnight. Future plans include opening on Tuesdays and taking reservations any day.
For those curious about locating this BBQ paradise, you can find Black Gold at 1521 W. Anderson Lane, Austin, TX 78757—we’re sure this spot is going to be the new go-to for BBQ lovers in the area! So grab your friends and family and get ready to dive into an upscale BBQ experience like no other!
