Southside Market & BBQ Coming to The Dell
ROUND ROCK, Texas - Round Rock Express Baseball announced Monday a partnership that makes Southside Market & Barbeque the official sausage and barbeque of the Express through the 2014 season. Along with being the exclusive vendor at the Barbeque Shack located behind section 120 at The Dell Diamond, Southside Market & Barbeque also will be featured on the menus for the Intel Club, suites, hospitality and group areas, and the United Heritage Conference Center for all outside events.
Established in 1882, Southside Market & Barbeque is the oldest barbeque restaurant in Texas. Over the last 130 years, Southside Market & Barbeque has evolved from a one-man operation selling beef and pork from the back of a wagon to a Texas-sized restaurant and meat market with distribution of its branded barbeque products nationwide.
"We are extremely proud to partner with the Round Rock Express at The Dell Diamond," Southside Market & Barbeque CEO Bryan Bracewell said. "No doubt, fans at The Dell Diamond will be treated to the same exact authentic Texas barbeque that we serve proudly here in Elgin on a daily basis. You can't fool a Texan when it comes to barbeque. We constantly live with high expectations, and we are proud to bring the real deal to The Dell Diamond."
Located on U.S. Highway 290 in Elgin, Southside Market & Barbeque prides itself on its old-fashioned methods of making all-natural, authentic Texas barbeque which includes the use of only real Texas post oak and no use of gas in cooking the meats.
