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

Peak Bert’s  holds a special place in my heart.  I realize that the game has changed, and I appreciate the craft bbq movement, but getting a T-man for $7 was nirvana in college.  The last time I went there was when they were in the space adjacent to University Towers.  Tom came out from behind the counter and gave me a hug.

Also, they still have a sign on the wall saying they'll cook your meat for $1/lb.  Bring them a brisket, pork butt, whatever, and the next day you'll get it back in all its smoky goodness.  Now THAT'S a bargain.

Call first.

They used to do it for a 6 pack of Coors.

Waco Trib say Helberg hopes to be up and running middle of next week out of a couple of food trucks on the property.

Yeah, they went and picked up the truck that had been on premise at Barnett's downtown to get some extra cooking capacity.  I'll be out there for sure, even if it's a pickup order for a few lbs of Trinity.

Hello from LJ’s in Brenham, where I’m full af:

Brisket: 8 - Little dry and tough in parts but well cooked… probably caught a bad cut

Ribs: 10 - Fantastic flavor and fell right off the bone

Sausage: 9 - went with the jap cheese and it was gooey goodness all the way

Sides: 9 - Mac was a standout, but the street corn salad rocked. Coleslaw was mid.

Worth a stop for sure!

It’s been a minute since I darkened the door at Barnett’s, they used to have about every bourbon known to man.

Dear Lord...what is the cooking process for that? I guess they smoke it and then fry it?  I wonder how much cooking the fryer does. Looks pretty good!

yep, they showed the process on their instagram stories. looks like it's smoked, chilled, then fried. the breading had a nice crunch and then you got the good smoky flavor at the end. definitely a once a year type of meal.

Those ribs are so damned big, I doubt the fryer brings the internal temperature up that much.

So how's the gravy?

I'm actually off today so I think I'm headed back for the smoked chicken and dumplings.

Oh, I gotta try that.

It's not an everyday item there. They're just doing a bunch of specials this month for Christmas.

Yup.  But, they DO do it, every year in December.  Some of the other "12 days" specials change up, but the chicken fried beef rib is a staple.  So tasty, so ridiculous.

Had the smoked chicken and dumplings today and really liked it.  They have these Christmas specials dialed in.  

Don't think I can make it tomorrow but I'll be back on Sunday for the gumbo.

Need a ref or two for a friend …. Stiles and switch for bbq ? <<< no line kind of place 

need another brunch and lunch spot rec, downtownish thanks 

any good tex mex ?

Stiles Switch and Terry Black's both have full dining rooms and full dining hours, so they're a good choice for BBQ at dinner.  Minimal lines at both except at peak lunch hour and even then it might only be 20 people in line.

Not sure about downtown brunch or lunch.

For Tex-Mex, Enchiladas y Mas
