About us

Luling City Market was founded by David Craig in 1981.

Since it's opening over 43 years ago it has become one of Houston's favorite gathering spots for great barbeque and meeting new friends in the ever popular bar. David's vision of bringing Central Texas style barbeque to the city was accomplished after a lot of hard work and planning all those years ago.

We smoke all of our meat on specialty designed steel pits and cook ONLY using Post-Oak wood. NO GAS!

Being one of the few places that use wood only to cook our meat on gives the smoke flavor & distinctive smoke ring that are genuine to REAL barbeque. Our melt in your mouth smoked brisket, pork ribs, chicken & turkey are cooked fresh early every morning. Our unique 100% all beef links are hand stuffed and hand tied twice weekly then smoked to perfection and have been a customer favorite throughout the years.

Our distinctive Luling City Market Barbeque sauce with its tangy mustard flavor will keep you coming back for more and is a customer favorite for many years now. We also sell our barbeque rub for those that want to barbeque at home.

We have the perfect side dishes to compliment the smoked meats we cook. You will not be disappointed! Our experienced longtime employees prepare our homemade potato salad, coleslaw and pinto beans fresh daily. To finish off your meal try one of our homemade individual pecan pies and brownies too that we bake from scratch in house.

Come on over and enjoy a cold longneck beer or a mixed drink in our saloon, enjoy some great food and meet new friends at our bar.

Let our experienced staff cater your next event. Full service delivery is also an available option or call ahead for pick up. We ship all of our meats , sauce & rub all over the United States on a regular basis so be sure to check out our shipping page here on our website too for all of the details.
