  1. No argument-Cupp's does good work and their fries are endorsed by every heart specialist within 50 miles of McClennan county.
  2. Missing the Dart Bowl cheese enchiladas every time this thread is updated😔
  3. Health camp? Sounds like yet another cult compound Health Camp is the Waco equivalent of the now departed Hut's on 6th street (😔).
  4. Still laughing at this quote everytime I see a handicapped parking spot.
  5. The two best things about Waco are George's and Health Camp. All else is folly. Fuck Baylor.
  6. Shaddie- Something to look forward to when we are reunited with our canine kids forevermore. All dogs go to heaven and I choose to believe will meet us again. Your next dog needs you and is already looking forward to coming home to bring you joy. Don't miss the opportunity!
  7. Plotting his revenge-sleep with one eye open as Metallica says.
  8. Well that just sucks about Drew's Place. It was the best place to eat before going to here live music at Robert Ealey's bluebird blues club. Both Drew's Place and Drake's Cafeteria on Rosedale were the best places to get soul food. I shall miss the smothered pork chops with collard greens and broccoli rice & cheese casserole at Drew's that never failed to satisfy on a spiritual level, as well as the best customer service in Fort Worth.
  9. Bought a couple of two liter bottles at Wally world this afternoon. Eight remained on the shelf.
  10. They use Imperial margarine and everyone has one after eating there.
  11. Guilty by association ( within 50 mile radius) Fuck BAYLOR
  12. If you can name anyone who has a better bird nest on the ground than Brady, my hat is off to you. Hell, even when he loses, he goes home to a super model.
  13. We led for 59 1/2 minutes until losing in the 4th quarter on a hail Mary.
  14. Me and Typhoon used to frequent Bronx Zoo. They didn't even have drywall in half the place. Part of the monthly White Trash Pub Crawl back in the 90's. Good times, I think?
  15. Hell, there were only three bottles in the cooler when I snagged this one. Beggars/choosers dontchaknow???
  16. I remember when the seventh street corridor was nothing but abandoned car lots and a few bars when Fred's was about the only going interest. Always had good food and the staff was always outstanding. Sad that as you say the decline was very noticeable before COVID and will likely lead to the end of a great FW eatery if it continues in the new location.
  17. Arrived at Goldee's 7:15 this morning, 20th in line. Served at 11:20, and left the parking lot at 12:15, where the line was over 60 deep. Johnny White said they sold out yesterday at 4pm. You got to pay the price to enjoy the dance, and today was a spiritual experience for the wife, my best friend from Clemson, and another friend who just retired from TCU. Meat coma setting in, going to ...............zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz😑
  18. Yeah, Walter White's car wash was already taken, so this was the next best option.
  19. How many people were behind the guy holding the last man standing sign at Goldee's? Channel 5 had an interview this morning live from there so I'm sure it was a shitshow by the time they opened.
  20. Never made it to the circle location but when he first opened inside the gas station in Cresson his work was in the top 25. Sometimes when fan recognition and appreciation happens, the owners can become overwhelmed either by the increase in business or believing the hype so much that the quality that brought the notice slips due to the fact they stop doing the little things that separate great barbecue from that which is simply good barbecue. Heim is an example of this effect-the continued expansion from a trailer to multiple locations has had an adverse effect on their quality. It's still decent enough to warrant recognition, but not what it was when first opened. That said, I hope Goldee's can handle the pressure of their success, including being named #1. Life is about to get real interesting in the coming weeks at this little place off of Dick Price road. It was always great arriving 10 minutes before opening and getting served in less than that but I sense those days are over. I'm willing to pay the price of waiting so long as the product remains consistently worth the wait.

    Texas BBQ

    The north FW location has NEVER delivered imho. Having worked on the northside for 21 years and eaten there for company lunches, I did not ever think the hype surrounding Cooper's was deserved. Never went to Llano in their heyday, but somehow they lost their mojo.
  22. Corpus hasn't had good BBQ since Roy's BBQ went out of business. My senior year in high school at King (1970), the five chopped beef sandwiches for a $1 made up the four food groups for most of us. Coming back the first weekend in November and am going to stop in Mathis to sample the menu there as your update confirms what I suspected regarding quality in my old hometown.
  23. Good girl Zoey. Can't wait to see you someday along with all of the other best friends that have blessed my life. Sending my hopes to you JSB that the best memories you shared with this true companion will be comforting in this time of sadness.
  24. Well that sucks. Dick Price Road will be overloaded traffic wise Friday-Sunday.
