Texas BBQ

Any recs for BBQ chicken in Austin?  We're hosting a big family dinner on XMas Eve with brisket & pulled pork, but we want some chicken too and I've never had much luck smoking that particular bird.
I'm aware of Rudy's.  Others?

Best bbq chicken in town? Hoovers. Yes, Hoovers.

Looking at the picture on their website, the chicken definitely is the best looking piece of meat on that tray and looks pretty tasty.

Yeah, the rest of their bbq is fine. But the chicken is genuinely outstanding. If you want to get a side of jalapeño creamed spinach, that would be a good call too.

Definitely sounds like a good call.  Need to earmark this for the next trip to Austin this spring to see the older kid.

There’s lots of other good stuff on the menu. Solid CFS and CFC, really good meatloaf, good catfish. When they have gumbo on special, it’s good. Will always have a soft spot for Hoovers - we were having dinner with friends there the night my wife went into labor with my daughter.

The stain that the amniotic sac left on the carpet really ties the room together.
