Pecan Lodge is a Texas barbecue restaurant on Main Street in Deep Ellum, east of downtown Dallas. It began as a stand at the Dallas Farmers Market before moving to its Deep Ellum location, and it has become one of the most talked-about barbecue restaurants in the state.
The restaurant is best known for smoked brisket and beef ribs, along with sausage, pulled pork and Texas-style sides. Meat is sold by the pound and ordered at the counter, and lines regularly form before the doors open, especially on weekends. Arriving early is the best way to get a full selection before popular cuts sell out.
Pecan Lodge also hosts live music, offers catering for events and ships barbecue nationwide. For catering quotes, the restaurant asks customers to email event details while its online catering system is being set up.
