  1. Goldee's BBQ is legit. I went with lean brisket, moist and tender, good rub on them. Ribs were peppery, tasted great with their vinegary sauce. Sausage was good, I prefer a coarse grind. I really liked their cole slaw, cuts some of the heaviness of all the meat. Their take on potato salad is really good, not the mustard based we see so often. Cheesy grits and the beans are definitely on the must order list. AND their fresh baked bread.
  2. Goldee's in Fort Worth. Definitely deserves the high praise I've been hearing. Brisket was great, bark was spot on. Ribs are great and tender, I prefer a hint of sweetness on my ribs. Sausage is above avg, I prefer a coarse grind though. Cheesy grits are phenomenal. Potato salad is unique, not what you find at other joints. Cole slaw is nice. Beans were great, has beef with a tex mex twist to them.
  3. We did a fall trip to Maine. We enjoyed it soo much we hope to go back soon. We flew into Portland, used uber for a couple of days then rented a car and drove up to Bar Harbor. Acadia National Park is amazing. We liked Eventide Oyster Co so much, went twice. Had an awesome lunch at Duckfat. Great breakfast at Becky's Diner and Holy Donuts - they use potato flour. Make the trip for lobster rolls at The Lobster Shack at Two Lights.
  4. Jack Floyd - Panther City Irrigation and Landscape - 817-902-2451 He's always been fair with us. Only had sprinkler work done
  5. a friend at the 5300 block of El Campo 76107 never lost power except for one 15 minute blip in the morning yesterday. I also heard Central Market was fine and doing business as usual. I'm over in 76108, a couple of miles west of 820. Power has been out 24 straight hours. I ended taking the fam to the inlaws, but I had to work this AM. I heard Walsh and others in Aledo were in a lengthy outage.
  6. I kinda wish I hadn't seen that Edgar video. That was brutal to imagine what happened in those vehicles.
  7. I believe it's Burleson
  8. damn Im out of the loop. What the hell was Trophy Ranch Bar? I need to see what is still down there and what is new

    Christmas loot

    HA! Sounds like my situation. I found a house with a five car garage, single brick garage for the riding lawnmower, and an insulated 20' x 30' metal building. The wife is having several projects happening inside.
  10. I knew that, but our timing was not going to get me to Snows earlier. I was just taking a shot. I've been to Snows but it's been a few years
  11. Went to Brett's Backyard Barbecu in Rockdale on Saturday. The hope was to hit them and Snows, but by the time we picked up our two dogs, I knew Snows would be sold out. I checked on Snows at 130ish, sausage was all that remained and there were still 20+ people in line. Brett's is very solid. The brisket was great, but very thick slices. Ribs were a tad dry but had a nice rub, I prefer a hint of sweetness though. Jalepeno cheddar sausage needed more jalepeno, a little more heat. His Czech sausage is fantastic
  12. It was wrapped up with the sausage during the trip home. 🤷‍♂️
  13. Terry Blacks in Dallas was killin it on saturday. Everything I had was done very well. They were on their game today.
  14. I had coworker thats been. She said it was awesome. I'll ask what they all had.
  15. I know three kids that have learned from the suzuki method and have excelled. My kids do piano, one is about to start cello. I keep pushing the guitar on my son, but he's sticking with the cello. I keep telling him, you get the chicks with guitar, maybe when he's a teenager he will get it.
  16. Wife is not happy this was found in the backyard
  17. Haha! That is awesome. I dont know if anyone else I know would actually venture over to the area.
  18. Well actually.... my buddy buys and sells cheap cars on the side and takes them here to get body work and paint - El Piston De Oro - 1205 S Ayers 76105
  19. the bro in law and his wife have the ikamper. they live in colorado, big time ultra trail runners, and they love it. its mounted on top of the camper shell of their dodge 3500. https://www.ikamper.com/pages/skycamp
  20. I went on Wednesday. On this day, the sample of lean, fatty, and ribs were on par with the better joints in dfw. There's only seating for about 10, but in these days of covid, its currently take out only.
  21. small interior. take out only. moves pretty fast for a bbq joint. One girl takes your order. The owner and another is guy is cutting and plating, with another dude helping out. Then another girl bags it all up. Only five are allowed inside at a time. I arrived just before 1pm, i was #2 outside. When I left, there five people waiting on the outside. I didn't get ask if they make their own sausage or if it was sourced out. Is it pork, pork and beef, is it a coarse or fine grind? I don't know, but they had regular and jal/cheese. Smoked bolo as well. Wed and Saturday they offer dirty rice. I want to hit that up, plus some other offerings
  22. Went Smoke-a-holics yesterday. I did the three meat combo. Lean, fatty, and ribs. In these categories, they are just as good as the other top places. Moist and lean was very well smoked. Fat was rendered. The lean was not dry. I still give a nod to Panther City and Heim for ribs. Their sauce works really well for the ribs. I prefer their version of potato salad over the cubed variety. Baked beans also excellent.
  23. You can also check out Pecan Valley Custom Homes. He's a Longhorn as well.

    Port Aransas

    We went early to La Playa, half way through our meal I heard it was a two hour wait. they did an awesome job with the fish we caught, btw. Ordered from Irie's by 11:30 for pick up. For take out sushi, we hit up Dave at Blue Water Cowboy.
  25. I have the Google mesh router with the ring doorbell along with two floodlight cameras. It's only been a couple of months, so there is that, but all works flawlessly at the moment. The house already had floodlights on both sides of the garage and backyard, so I wanted the direct wired. Not sure about two cameras at once with sound
