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

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

For all you Houston folks, Tejas Barbecue trailer will be at my brewery at 5pm this evening. Great opportunity to sample their wares without driving all the way to Tomball.

I was in Austin visiting a friend and he wanted me to try the smoked burger at Moreno. Of course I had to get some brisket and sausage as I had not eaten there before. Burger was excellent as was the brisket. Sausage was good but not mind blowing. 

And the brisket? 

I've been meaning to get down there to try the smoked chicken in particular, but they're typically sold out on weekdays by the time I can leave work.  Maybe tomorrow.

They put out good product.  Sausage is always meh.  Pork ribs depend on the day.  Not saying bad, just varies from OK to excellent.

I have issues with Terry Black's for that reason.  I don't order ribs there any more.  Too much else that's good to great.

My son and I hit InterStellar on the way back to Dallas from San Antonio today. Got in line at 12:10 or so and placed order at 1:30. Line moved pretty slow. The food was fantastic and got to meet John and talk to him for a bit after we ate. Good dude.

We went to Corkscrew in Old Town Spring today. Brisket was very good, but the beef rib was disappointingly dried out. Their potato salad was more like super garlic chunky mashed potatoes. Mac’n’cheese and peach and apple cobblers were strong. 

Super garlicky potato salad, you say…?

You might be in for a fun night. Let us know you’re still alive today.

The Smoking Oak. Went for dinner

Glazed Spare Ribs - may be best ribs ive ever had

Sausage - standard

Chopped Beef (they were outta sliced brisket) - awful. Couldnt even finish it

Fried rib tips - good. Huge portion

 

service was awesome but my family were the only people there at 530 on a friday. Worth a stop i guess if you are in Mercedes

Hit up Burnt Beam for the second time yesterday. Still think the barbacoa (Sunday only - get there early) I got the first time I went was my best bite, but everything I had yesterday was very good. Might be favorite brisket since prime Shoeless Joe. Fresh tortillas didn’t make the pic, but they were also excellent.

What did they charge for that rib? Goldee’s is now $40 a bone.

if someone is going to sell at a very high price, isn't #1 the place that should be doing it?

can't say i ever blame #1 (or anyone in the top 10) for charging more

I was using Goldee’s as a benchmark, high as that might be. If Dickeys were to offer a beef rib at $40 a bone I would know they are smoking dope, as I know they aren’t smoking meat.

Any Texan that patronizes a godforsaken shithole Dickeys even just to take a shit on the restroom floor is doing a disservice to Texas and disrespecting all the brave Texicans slain at the Alamo and Goliad. Fuck that place.

B. Cooper BBQ

don’t remember seeing this place mentioned here; I wanted to try it mainly because they have smoked lamb. unfortunately he’s been having trouble getting lamb lately (says he smokes a “lamb breast” and not the leg; sometimes hard to get apparently) though he says he has it most of the time. today he did not. but the rest of it was incredible. I’ve had a lot of brisket over many years and this truly may have been the best I’ve ever tasted. buttery fat and perfect flavor. he’s located right off 7th street near springdale in a lot behind where distant relatives used to be. he’s been there for a few years and gets zero pub and my buddy and I were the only ones there for the first hour he was open.

if you are looking for a new place to try go and see him.

It’s in same parking lot as Odd Muse Brewery & very close to Cattleack.  A notch below Cattleack but way above dickies. I’ll definitely be going back.

Anybody getting hungry traveling through Bell County on 95, check out Li'l Armadillo BBQ in Holland. Kirby makes some dang good que from his truck biz. I haven't been to this location yet, but used to visit regularly at his Temple location a couple of years ago. I'd rather have his brisket and ribs, and some of the best Charro beans ever, than the snooty overpriced tourist joints in Belton. Look him up on facebook where they post their hours. 

I gotta get over there soon but it's a bit of a drive on $5 gallon gas and shit.

I’m in Salado pretty often, will hit him up. Don’t have Facebook, do you know his days/hours?

Closed Tuesday and Wednesday. Thurs, Fri and Sat 11:00-7:00 Sunday and Monday 11-5
 

Who had the bbq trailer in Temple out on Adams a few years ago?

Same guy, used to set up on Saturdays. They kept getting the business from the city making up new rules and stuff, jumping through hoops, and had some health problems, then covid hit and stuff. 

They just started back up in Holland a couple of weeks ago and are still trying to figure out what their regular hours are going to be.

We didn’t need the clarification on you being an idiot.  User name gets that out of the way right up front.
