It's not often that iconic businesses make it during Austin's rising housing costs, but House Park BBQ holds on. This humble little joint is conveniently located in Central Austin, and it's perfect for breakfast or lunch.

Their classic slogan, "Need no teef to eat my beef" never fails to make passersby chuckle. This silly sign is so much more than just a marketing tactic, though -- it's the truth. The meat is so tender you wouldn't even consider using a knife.

Simple charm and classic decor are everywhere you turn. It gives you the feeling that this place has never really changed and that you'll be eating here for the rest of your days.

The pitmasters at House Park know that good BBQ doesn't come quickly, so they perfectly smoke these meats for hours on end. The final result is so melt-in-your-mouth delicious, you'll wonder how you ever ate at any other BBQ joint.

If you're looking for an amazing way to start your morning, head over to House Park and order a few mind-blowing breakfast tacos. These delights are only served on Tuesdays and Fridays, but it's worth planning ahead for. If you can't get up in time, just stop in for lunch. You can never go wrong with a classic brisket sandwich.

With prices like these, you can order as much as your heart desires. Mixed meat plates will only set you back $10.49. You'll definitely want to order extra potato salad and coleslaw to accompany your meal. These side dishes are unexpectedly incredible.
