    I ate at the one in Plano this summer. I was pleasently surprised. Plano doesn't have many if any GOOD BBQ joints and I would probably say this is at the top of the list around there.

    They been on any recent Top 50 lists? I think like 12 years ago maybe. I love hit that up on Saturday before college football kicks off. But it's more a chopped beef sandwich and ribs place and dang sure don't want the sliced brisket.

    My brother goes there. I think they work hard and he's definitely cooking "Texas style" That all steel smoke room he has looks like a lot of fun in the summer time.

    When I used to smoke with Jordan Jackson some at Bodacious in Longview he used a mixture of Mesquite and Oak. Business going to be picking up in Longview at Sunbird. Glad to see them expanding their cooking capacity.

    I'd love to be able to make some shrimp brochette. I don't know how you get the bacon and the shrimp done at the perfect time.

    This and it's going to get a lot of joints in the near future if you ask me. Not sure what they can do but pricey cuts are going to get some of these bbq joints. Pulled pork and chickens need to become more of a focus. I'm surprised more BBQ joints are limiting their brisket days to maybe Friday and Saturday. I think the bubble is bursting on the Texas BBQ scene to be honest. It's been a hell of a run for years.

    I would assume this is what BBQ looks like in the majority of folks minds in this country. Of course not here at Surly Horns on the BBQ; it's straight trash.

    RIP John. Always treated me well.

    Just because you can cook a brisket doesn't mean you can run a business. You better have a book keeper hired and on staff. I'm guessing they were doing their own books and it spiraled out of control.

    My thermapen has finally crapped out I think. It closes but the slightest touch and it lights back up and operates. I don't know what's up with it. I've had it for 5+ years.

    Jordan Jackson was also working at Stanleys at the time (invented the Mother Clucker). Went on to fix Bodacious on Mobberly.

    Full bars, hamburgers and chicken pay better than smoked brisket.

    I also think you have to take in to account going from a trailer to a HUGE restaurant. There maybe should be some kinda step up in scale but maybe not the huge leap some joints are trying. Sunbird is a pretty good description of going from a food truck to a building without trying to be the taj mahal in the process. Sure if their business takes off they can always move/build at even bigger location.

    If you invested in multiple BBQ ventures and lost money I would question your investment strategy. Fool me once.

    Those Brussel sprouts are one of my favorite side dishes in BBQ and I really don't like vegetables

    I mean I get it. I bought four briskets for Easter (prime from Sams) and they were right at $70 each. But sheesh its just crazy when you think about it.

    Hutchins laughing at those prices they get $33.99 on brisket and they've had lines wrapped around both locations this weekend. https://hutchinsbbq.com/mckinney-menu

    Not the first time I've heard that.

    I ate BBQ at the Plano HEB location and honestly the food I had I was very happy with; it's not ELITE but it's good. I would put it over the Rudy's of the world, etc.

    Man that brisket fried rice looks fantastic. When you get used to it having some veggies in it and you go to some place and it's just the rice you are so disappointed. Looks like enough to feed an army too.

    Did McKinney get rid of the AYCE? Last time I was in there and saw a price it was $35. I think the first time I went it was $14.99 (was definitely under $20) and that is when you could get catfish with it and they still served cornbread muffins and hot rolls. Damn me and that place had some good times. They had a little tv in the corner and I'd drive up watch football and kill that thing.

    Did I F it up?

    Smoked four briskets; pulled at 200-205 area; I only temped one. The other three I just felt around on (insert joke). They were wrapped in paper. I then took them off and wrapped them in plastic wrap. Put a towel in the bottom of the my cooler and up the walls; laid the four briskets in kind stair stepping them (trying to not smash the bottom one) ended up with three bath towels on top and shut the cooler at 10:30 at night; opened cooler the next morning at 8:30 and top brisket temped at 148. Results were good. I will do it that way moving forward. I'll post pics in a bit.

    I like Railhead. Good location, Good ribs, great fries and big schooner of beer if you are in to that kind of thing.

    Why not an electric roaster? They go down to 150 degrees from what I can see. https://www.walmart.com/ip/AROMA-22Qt-Roaster-Oven-with-High-Dome-Lid-ART-732SBH/1178538713?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0
