Just as important to the Texas culture as cowboy hats is authentic Texas barbeque. Kreuz Market has been serving up smoked meats and authentic BBQ since 1900. Thought the generations have passed, and the business has moved buildings, the same family still owns and run the market/restaurant. Originally, Kreuz Market was a grocery store with a butcher, whose mission was to use animals nose to tail. Roy Perez has been the pitmaster for over 30 years and insists that BBQ not be pretty or dressed up. Though sides are offered on the menu, don’t bother looking for forks or sauce, as these are not meant to be used on Kreuz’s meats.
