Our name is rooted in the history of North Texas.

Near Gainesville, Texas, two of the most significant routes in American history crossed paths: the Shawnee Trail and the Chisholm Trail.

These trails carried people from different places, backgrounds, and purposes. Cowboys, ranchers, traders, settlers, business people, and travelers all found themselves moving along these paths.

Their journeys were different.

But for a moment, their roads crossed and they shared the same ground.

That idea is at the heart of Two Trails Barbecue.

Great barbecue has a way of doing the same thing.

People arrive from different places, with different stories and different paths. Then somebody puts brisket on the table, pulls up another chair, and suddenly those differences don't seem quite as important.

Friends, families, neighbors, strangers, and travelers come together over food made to be shared.

Two Trails Barbecue is a reminder that different paths can meet at the same table, find common ground, and leave a little more connected than when they arrived.
