Posted by Patricio Swayze,

I disagree that Reese Bros is not worth ordering. I think it is every bit as good as 2M, which I love. Overall, these are my 10 favorite spots, in no particular order (not that anyone asked or cares): Truth Brisket & Rice Leroy & Lewis Burnt Bean Tejas Reese Bros Valentina’s Butter’s 2M Lavaca (although my pops said last time he went he was disappointed, need to confirm)

Top 10 list.

Met my folks and brother and sister-in-law at Lost Pines this past weekend. Seeing that Snow's was just under an hour from Lost Pines, I put together an excursion to go Saturday morning. (I also had s

How long do you hover over your keyboard contemplating whether your drivel has captured the right amounts of smarmy and cocksucker before you hit reply?

Just got back to Dallas from Lexington. What a trip. We pulled up around 8:30/9 Fri night and were first on the scene. We went to the bar around the corner until they closed at midnight and came back

Metroplex peeps — my buddy (and cook partner) is doing his final pop-up of 2019 in FW on Saturday. He’s working on opening a permanent spot on Race St. His food (Seven Acres BBQ) is legit. Go check him out. Do not miss his beef cheek tacos — if he’s doing them. (Haven’t seen a menu.)

Agreed - 100%.  If Valentina's ribs aren't good, they shouldn't be on the menu, Tex-Mex BBQ or not.  If it was a one off bad cook, they just shouldn't have served them.

This.

 

also, if ur gonna have a bbq joint in Texas, u have to at least serve the Trinity... mexican ‘cue or not

Bummed about the Buck's BBQ news.  I have a client meeting tomorrow in Houston and the out of town client insists on going to Blood Bros. BBQ tomorrow for lunch. 

This thread seems to be pretty meh about the place.  Anybody been there lately that hasn't posted about it?  Are there any sure winning items on their menu?  Thai green chile boudin sounds pretty good, but not very much like BBQ as I know it!  Thanks for any insight (or more likely, your snarky comments.)

I come to this thread probably once a week, because it's the one thing I miss most about Texas.

There's a new joint opening up in a couple of months about 20 minutes from me that is run by a guy with some serious culinary chops, advertising "Clams, pulled pork, and 'Texas style brisket'."

I'm not hopeful, but hey, at least it made the list, right? Sigh.

Went back to Blood Brother’s for the 3rd or 4th time today. Last time was a disappointment but they redeemed themselves today.

They don’t ask you if you want moist or lean. So this time I made sure to ask for moist. Brisket was solid. I had the hot link and it was good. They also had a special togarashi sausage. It was good but I liked the hot link more.

Hit there around 12:30.  No line.  Was not impressed with my visit today.  Nothing was smoky.  Everything was dried out.  Hot links, black pepper links, brisket and burnt ends.  Brisket rice was OK.  Strong pickle and onion game, so they've got that going...which is nice.  Do not plan to return.

Tyler’s BBQ gets great reviews. Texas Monthly has them in the top 50 club. He cooks on mesquite which is not my favorite, I prefer the oak flavor bbq.

i get to eat all the Central Texas bbq I want so I don’t go to Tyler’s very often at all.

Tyler's is the only good place I know of in Amarillo.  Pork ribs are better than his brisket in my opinion.

Not only that, I had bbq again today. This time at Micklethwait in Smithville. Pottery “meh” to be honest. Not much smoke flavor and was a bit too fatty. It was relatively cheap. 1/2 lbs of brisket, link of sausage, beans and a drink for $17.
