la Barbecue is a restaurant in Austin, Texas, United States.[1][2]
History
The restaurant was established by LeAnn Mueller and is now owned[3] by her wife Ali Clem.[4]
In August 2022, owners Clem and Mueller were indicted on fraud charges after the Texas Department of Insurance discovered a 2016 insurance policy was taken out on an employee after a serious injury had occurred and was backdated three weeks prior to the injury. The trial was scheduled to begin in October 2023.[5][6][7]
Reception
The restaurant was included in Texas Monthly's list of the "Top 50 Barbecue Joints in Texas" in 2021.[8] It received a Michelin star in 2024.[9]
