LaVaca BBQ is a family-run operation that’s been firing up their custom-built, 1000-gallon smokers since November 2019. This Port Lavaca spot is led by Kelli, one of the few female pitmasters in Texas, alongside Lupe and Christine Nevarez. They’ve turned their passion into an opportunity to serve mouthwatering BBQ to our local community and beyond, attracting BBQ lovers from all over Texas.

What’s Their Secret?

It’s simple—the love for the craft. Every bite of LaVaca BBQ is packed with heart, and their Central Texas Craft-style BBQ, especially their brisket, speaks for itself. Their commitment to using only the highest quality meats and crafting unique in-house sides and desserts is what sets them apart.
