On the first night of BlogHer Food '13, we will be offering several no-host excursions led by Austin foodies to give our attendees a sense of the local epicurean delights. One of these excursions will be led by Amanda Cowan, of Food on the Table, to go to one what Bon Appetit crowned as the best barbecue in America: Franklin Barbecue.

Named earlier this year as one of the 20 most important restaurants in the United States, Franklin Barbecue will welcome a group of our attendees to sample their scrumptious foodand learn about their business and the food scene in Austin.
