This Father’s Day, Lockhart Smokehouse is doing what it does best — honoring Texas tradition with smoke, spice, and southern hospitality. On Sunday, June 15th, both locations of the celebrated central Texas-style barbecue joint will treat dads to a complimentary dessert with any dine-in meal, while supplies last. It’s a simple gesture, but one rooted in the kind of down-home generosity that defines the Lockhart experience.
And for the pitmaster patriarch in your life, Lockhart has crafted a gift box worthy of any backyard legend. Priced at $65, the Father’s Day gift set includes a signature Lockhart Smokehouse hat, their house-made barbecue rubs, fiery hot sauce, and a $25 gift card — the ultimate starter pack for the dad who lives to grill.
This isn’t just another barbecue restaurant paying lip service to its roots. Lockhart Smokehouse was born out of legacy. Co-owner Jill Bergus is a descendant of the legendary Schmidt family of Kreuz Market — a mecca of Texas barbecue since 1900. Since opening its doors in 2011, Lockhart has brought that smoky lineage north, first to Dallas’ Bishop Arts District and later to historic downtown Plano. The result: slow-smoked brisket with a dark, peppery bark, Kreuz sausages snapped to perfection, and tender ribs that fall apart before your fork gets near them.
More than a meal, Lockhart Smokehouse delivers a piece of Texas barbecue heritage in every bite. With their no-sauce, post-oak-fired meats served on butcher paper and cold beers in hand, the experience here is intentionally stripped-down and focused on flavor…
