March 24, 20214 yr Some jerks stole my brother in law's mobile BBQ pit which he handmade and modeled after Aaron Franklin's mobile pit. Needless to say, we are all really pissed. The smoker was stolen Monday night from the Ben White/S. Congress area by the dudes in the security pic. They removed their license plate to avoid detection. I'll pony up for a free prime brisket smoked on this bad boy if you track it down for us. Edited March 24, 20214 yr by MidTexHorn
March 24, 20214 yr You’ll give me a brisket if I track down a criminal and turn him over to you? What a deal!

That would be ideal, but if you see the dude and get a license plate number, address, good pics, whatever that helps us track 'em down, that's good enough. My meat will be yours.
March 24, 20214 yr Sorry to see this. Too many ass clowns running around. Hope it turns up...but could be 500+ miles away at this point. Edited March 24, 20214 yr by Tailgate
March 24, 20214 yr Is that a late 2000s/early '10s model Chevy Tahoe? Edited March 24, 20214 yr by Tom

March 24, 20214 yr They only stole it for the bucket. Probably left the smoker in some ditch near by. Edited March 24, 20214 yr by Gene Parmesan
March 24, 20214 yr Perpetrators look like a younger Mexican dude with one of those shitty mohawk mullet hybrids and the other guy looks like a fat old white trash guy that works at a bait shop in Rockport. Both are net negatives to society and should be publicly caned for their thievery.

March 24, 20214 yr 3 hours ago, MidTexHorn said: Looks like it. They pulled their plates off unfortunately so we can’t get a better ID. Yeah, that stinks. But between the all black wheels on a 7-14 year old white Tahoe and the one guy's mullet/mohawk haircut, there's at least a few distinguishable things to keep an eye out for. Hope you end up catching them. Thieves suck.
March 24, 20214 yr This looks like an inside job. Did your brother recently purchase any insurance policies on the pit?

March 24, 20214 yr If you ever do find the thieves, I'll help you beat their asses. You don't even have to pay me in brisket for it.

That is really too bad. FWIW, regardless if it was unlocked, that the thieves pulled into the area indicates perhaps a familiarity with the location. Keeping an eye out for the vehicle in that area during the daytime might yield some results. Whatever businesses are located in the immediate vicinity might provide an indication of who is traveling back and forth.

March 25, 20214 yr Author Some more details: 1) it was behind a locked gate. They cut the lock. 2) My brother says in the video the guys look pretty meth-headish. 3) They rode up on bikes and cased the place, then brought the Tahoe over, cut the chain and grabbed the trailer fortunately the Yeti was at my brothers place for the crawafish boil we had over the weekend. 4) Some sketchy looking dude on a bike was in the area today but a co-worker confronted him a bit too aggressively and he got away. May have just been a random homeless dude but the bike looked similar to one they saw in the video.
