A Barbecue Family Legacy
Local News
Texas Monthly
"Like a number of multi-generational family businesses, the Bryans have experienced highs and lows, and the kindling for their business started just a decade after the historic Kreuz Market opened in Lockhart. Elias Bryan moved from Cincinnati to Dallas, where he opened Bryan’s Barbecue on February 13, 1910 in a small building at Jefferson and Beckley, in Oak Cliff."
Fort Worth Magazine
"It’s been over 100 years since Jimmy Harris’ great grandfather Elias Bryan opened the family’s first barbecue restaurant in Oak Cliff. Today, the family business is still thriving in the form of David’s Barbecue located at 2224 West Park Row in Arlington. Harris is now the patriarch in a lineage of barbecue masters that can be dated back 113 years."
