The city of Grapevine announced Tuesday that
Salt Lick BBQ is coming to the city's 185-acre Palmeiro Tract next year.
Construction is scheduled to begin in the fall. Once completed in late 2018, the 10-acre property will offer 10,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor dining as well as a specialty wine and beer bar.
"We have searched the Metroplex the last 10 years for a site where the look and feel of the place would remind us of the Hill Country and allow us to recreate the backyard barbecue party we have in Driftwood. We have finally found a Hill Country home in Grapevine," owner Scott Roberts said.
The Palmeiro Tract is already home to Kubota Tractor Corp., Mercedes-Benz USA LLC,
TST Impreso, a
multifamily development and a
water park resort. The land was purchased by the city of Grapevine from former Texas Rangers baseball player Rafael Palmeiro in 2013.
