Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Old 300 BBQ, 318 4th St, Blanco, TX 78606, USA
Grab a real Texas BBQ sandwich from Old 300 in Blanco. The restaurant has fed presidents and celebrities, and after one bite you'll know why. As you order, check out the list of Stephen F. Austin's list of original "Old 300" settlers.
Duration: 45 minutes
Stop At: Devil's Backbone Tavern, 4041 FM 32, Fischer, TX 78623-1816

Stop At: Gruene Hall, 1281 Gruene Rd, New Braunfels, TX 78130-3003
It's the oldest dance hall in Texas, and even after nearly 150 years, this timeless spot still has it going on. Every week, this gem attracts local, regional, and national acts and their fans who dance Gruene's well-worn wood floors.
