Art galleries and river breaks give Wimberley a weekend glow, but the food stays practical. After a morning on the square, smoked meat makes sense before the crowds stack up. Pick an early lunch and you will get a better cut and an easier seat.
Kellys Hill Country Barbeque leans into that Hill Country comfort, simple sides and steady smoke. Brisket is the test, so start there and add ribs only if they look fresh. Finish slow, then take the long way back toward the water.
