Tioga
Clark's Outpost
Tioga, TX, 76271, United States
Resembling an Old West outpost, this barbecue restaurant is housed in a rustic, one-story wooden building in Tioga, about an hour north of Dallas. The dining room has a low-key vibe with mismatched chairs, checkered tablecloths, and plaster walls lined with framed photographs of celebrity guests and cowboys. In the open kitchen, house specialties like the St. Louis-style pork ribs and hickory-smoked beef brisket — which is slow-cooked for 3½ days — are prepared. Sides include fried corn-on-the-cob and smoked baked beans.
Insider Tip:
Just down the street from Clark's is the Tioga Heritage Museum, where you can see memorabilia from the life and career of "Singing Cowboy" Gene Autry, who was born here.
