If you squint the sausage juices are in the shape of texas.

All the Kings Men in downtown Bryan is supposed to be good.  And then there is Good Bull on G Bush Drive too, but it is next door to the texags office so you might catch the aggys.

I'll eat just about anything, and after being in Maine for a few months I would kill or severely maime several of you for a even a half pound of Rudy's moist. But I will be damned to hell for six eternities before I step foot in a place called good bull. Have you no fucking shame?

Agreed. Good Bull? Screw that no way in hell..  Wouldn't care if it was 19000000x better than Franklins.

Wedding in Georgetown, TX this weekend.  From reading this thread*, it looks like Louis Mueller in Taylor would be the goto?  I went to Taylor Cafe a few years back.  

Me and the son in law will make an early Sat run and need to get back relatively quickly to join up the party in the early afternoon.  I don't think he has any central texas bbq experience so give me your thoughts on what would be a cool introduction.

* I realized after posting that I only read about three pages of this thread.

First CenTex bbq experience? Louie Mueller is the right call

Snow’s isn’t far from GT.  LM is great too.

*son in law and I

and as RMac said, snow’s is a little more of a drive but they open at 8am.  if getting back with time to spare is important that’s your best bet. 

Perfect.  Thanks guys. 

One question -- assuming we get there relatively early, will there likely be some monumental line (asking more related to Snows)? 

(Bill Mueller's is right near my parents house in San Antonio - I may hold off on that until I next visit them.)

If you're getting it to go, call on Thursday and place your order.

Pick it up around back and you'll just have time to give Tootsie a hug before you're ready to go.

 

 

 

Had Pecan Lodge last sunday for the first time. Brisket was fantastic and the ribs and sausage were also very good.

Sausage and potato tacos / iced tea

Brotherton in Pville.

Brisket was good. Awesome crust. Not a smoke ring but not worried about that.

Ribs were ok. Almost candy sweet and not as tender or as big as Hutchins in McKinney.

Give it about 85. Pickles were 110% percent though.

Ah ok. Sounds great. I just heard y’all up in that part of Texas don’t know what a taco vs a burrito is.

Got one this morning. Total gut bomb. 63e0f03bc4de5a9ab51253b0375ac5cb.jpg

Havent seen this place on this thread yet...SIAP

Austin's BBQ in Addison (no website)

Pretty fucking bad.  Must have sliced the brisket at 3 am, it was dry, grey and no flavor.  Ribs were some of the worst in history.  Fried okra was decent, pinto beans were a train wreck.  Oh yea, forgot the jalapeno sausage...forgot it because it was bad.  Only good news, prices.  3 meat plate with 2 sides for $13.

Does a to go order have to be a certain amount? (Snows)
Would a decent order for two be worth calling in?

Your taking your son in law to Snow's for his first central Texas bbq experience. I guess if he hasn't ever gone to a professional baseball game, you would take him to the World Series.

Gotta start em right.  Im proud to say my daughter’s first CTXBBQ experience was Franklin

My daughter's first CTXBBQ experience was my brisket and ribs.  She likes brisket but she absolutely loves ribs, and although she's had ribs everywhere in Austin now, she still proclaims mine to be the best.  

She is, of course, correct.

I’ve got a 17 year old daughter.  And you’re right...cherish every compliment you can get.  Sorry to tell you, but it gets worse from here.

Lmao...I was fully prepared for that response.  Just didn't figure it would come from you.  Dick.

Stopped at Bodacious in Sulfur Springs on the way to Arkansas on Monday. People were nice, but food was not. 

Wanted to try Shirley's but they were closed because Monday. 

Sorry if this is old news, but what time does the line start forming at Franklin on weekdays? I'm advising some out of towners.

You are actually asking for a friend?

Nice write up and interesting story. I need to go back there. The two times I went I thought the food was great. Had the fried rice once and it was delicious. But they need to stop charging $3 for big red (I’m looking at you too Grant).

Butter’s in Mathis is really good, imo.

The Tails from the Pits guys and Daniel Vaughn gave it really good reviews as well.

Good for them on the publicity. It's been a while since I've been, didn't know that they have been experimenting more.

This paragraph is cringe-inducing though:

Blood Bros BBQ is located in a strip mall in the Houston suburb of Bellaire. The location should come as no surprise: After years of the so-called Great Inversion—in which affluent professionals flocked back to city centers, leaving the suburbs to recently arrived immigrants—we should all be accustomed to finding the most exciting developments in food happening amid pawnshops and nail salons and urgent care centers.

I guess Bellaire was considered a suburb....in 1950. The whole premise of the article is a little weird. There is in fact a ton of very interesting food stuff happening in the Houston 'burbs....but Blood Bros ain't it.

Yeah that’s just Houston zoning.

Other than Buck's of course, are there any unusual BBQ daily specials near the Inner Loop Houston? Not a good restaurant, but I do miss the smoked duck at Goode Company BBQ. 

Yes, I'm well aware of the pastrami sandwich at Roegel's. 

I guess Blood Bros has a really good publicist?

I was completely unimpressed by my recent visit. The best items were the fried rice and sausage. Nothing else came close to being described as good.
