Two things come to mind when I think of Sunday brunch: barbeque and Bloody Marys. If you’re looking for either – Stubb’s is your place.
The waitress tells us to go ahead and serve ourselves outside. Outside? Yes. Outside. Walking out of the door next to the stage you will find the epitome of Southern barbeque. There’s no plate big enough to fit what your eyes are telling you that you need. There’s fresh brisket (cut on the spot), cheese grits, fried catfish, biscuits, sausage, bacon, and more! There’s also Stubb’s sauce on the side so you can apply as much – or as little – as you want.
If you’re like me, you’re a bit skeptical about ordering a Bloody Mary at a restaurant because you’re not sure how they fix it, and not sure if you’ll like it. Well at Stubb’s, there’s a Bloody Mary bar. As in “make your own”! The waitress serves you vodka over ice, then you enter the Bloody Mary bar, which has its own special room filled with mix, veggies, and every type of seasoning you can imagine!
Stubb’s is known for its Southern barbeque and live music, particularly Sunday’s Gospel Brunch. I’ve never been to a “Gospel Brunch” before, but I’ll tell you that Stubb’s Bar-B-Q in Austin will not be my last! What a cool experience!

Nobody makes a bloody mary the way I like, so I’d love to try this place. The nicest recipe (for me at any rate, as these things are a bit subjective!) is one part vodka, 4 parts tomato juice, a dash of dry sherry, dash of lemon juice, ice, celery salt, tabasco and worcester sauce and freshly ground black pepper. Stirred of cause with the ubiquitous stick of celery.
The dry sherry is what transforms the drink into perfection, even if you are not using the best vodka. And using a vodka such as grey goose, and you’ll probably never let someone else make one for you!

I don’t get out for Sunday brunch as often as I’d like to these days with two small children, but if I’m ever in Austin I think I’m going to swing over to Stubb’s and give them a go. I’ll probably pass on the bloody mary though

Stubb’s sounds like one of those hole-in-the-wall hidden gems. This gives me another reason to visit Austin, which maybe the only redeeming to visit Texas—sorry, but it’s simply too hot for my taste.
