Where Is Food Network’s ‘BBQ Brawl’ Filmed?

The Season 6 finale of Food Network’s BBQ Brawl left audiences hungry — not just for the delicious smoked feasts the chefs cooked up, but also for the opportunity to dine at a rustic Texan ranch. Want to know the backdrop of the thrilling barbeque tournament’s sixth season? Read on for more sizzling information.

In case you’re unfamiliar, BBQ Brawl is kind of like a smokier and more Southern version of the show Beat Bobby Flay. Each season, expert chef Bobby Flay goes head-to-head against two other professional chefs — this season, those chefs are Maneet Chauhan and Antonia Lofaso. Each chef coaches their own team of America’s most lauded barbeque pitmasters, or “Brawlers,” as they compete in intense and oh-so-appetizing grilling challenges. 

The Season 6 finale just aired on Food Network on July 27, cranking up the heat with an all-night cookoff to determine who among the last three Brawlers standing will be crowned the “Master of ‘Cue.” While we won’t spoil how the fiery tournament ends, we just have to gush about the beautiful ranch and old Western landscape that houses the competition. Where exactly was Food Network’s hottest cooking competition filmed? Here’s what we know.

Where Was BBQ Brawl Season 6 Filmed?

Though the show has moved back and forth between various locations over the course of its six seasons, it seems to have settled just outside of Austin, Texas — in the community of Bee Cave, to be exact — at a rural venue called Star Hill Ranch.

Home to 22 historic buildings, the property prides itself in being “a re-creation of a Texas Hill Country community typical of the early 1900s,” according to their official website. The ranch just drips with rustic Southern charm, making it the perfect setting for a good old fashioned Texas barbeque showdown. If you want to visit Star Hill yourself, you’re in luck — you can easily book the property for weddings, corporate events, parties, fundraisers, church retreats, you name it!
