San Antonio, Austin & In-Between

[CBHorn 441]

So I moved North after graduating in 2005 and haven't been to a home game since. My lovely wife bought me a flight and tickets to see the West Virginia game with my cousin who lives in New Braunfels.  He's picking me up at the San Antonio airport on Friday.  What places should I put on the list to hit? Need at least one BBQ and one Mexican.

That's for tuna.   There is a Bill MIller and a Taco Cabana right before you get into New Braunfels.

Hays County BBQ is solid, and just off 35 in San Marcos. However, I would highly suggest Valentina’s in Manchaca. Definitely one of my all time favorite bbq joints.

There is a Cooper's and a Black's in NB now. Hay's County BBQ is good as mentioned above. If you're going to San Marcos just go to Herbert's Taco Hut. You won't be disappointed.

If you're in before COB Friday and BBQ is you

There's this place in San Marcos called Eskimo Hut that has really cool drinks and the owner is a really reasonable guy.

Depending on your ETA on Friday, 2M Smokehouse in San Antonio would be my recommendation.  Hays County and Valentina's are both good options as well.  The only barbecue place I would deal with on game day is LA Barbecue and that is because you can pre-order any amount 3 days ahead of time.  Otherwise, the Austin joints will have long lines or run out.
