  • Thanks. Just a clarification...I didn’t take over anything except assuming the role as GM and pitmaster. There are new owners (as of April 2019), and I’m just a hired gun who was brought in to get the

Did you get Feges approval?


It was mine before it was his. So no.

I'm just curious...do you form it free hand on flat trays and place on smoker or have a bunch of bread/meatloaf pans lined up on smoker?
 


Free formed in full size foil pans
If I was from Australia and you tried to take me to Galveston I would probably stop being friends with you. 
I agree, but as I noted in my post, he's from Austin. He knows what he's getting into, we used to go to the beach together as kids. Texas beaches. Which obviously don't compare. That said, your dick doesn't shrivel in the gulf and we don't have Box Jellyfish that can kill you. Or Great Whites.

So a loss on beauty, a win on usability.

Having spent enough time at both, I'll take usability and visit beauty.

So did you kick his ass or just send a sternly worded letter?

Yeah that meatloaf was pretty damned good. 25lbs of it out the door in an hour and a half.

So Champ, I realize it's a limited sample size, but so far how do you think that the locals and regulars are taking to your specials? How're the crowds?

We’re busy from open to close. And the demand for our bbq is so high that I’m going to be forced to roll out more bbq options sooner rather than later. The word is out, and people don’t want to be patient for me to phase it in slowly.

It was seriously delicious. SMU, sorry I missed you this time.

This is terrific news. Hey, you were respectful to the loyal customers, but G-Town has been void of great BBQ. And your focus on a short time from order to food arrival doesn't hurt at all. As I said to you, the Island Time culture is pervasive here, and this will stand out as a breath of fresh saltwater air, especially for those UTMB folks who punch time clock for lunch.

I’m shocked, SHOCKED i tell ya. 

I seriously love watching this thread, a man who loves his craft, doing things the right way, facing adversity and staring down hurricanes and shit, just fucking cooking BBQ that makes people happy. /nohomodoyourthingchamp. 

 

I haven't been to galveston in two decades but might consider it only to work in a pit stop at Bucks. 

Are you open on Mondays?

When will you serve alcohol? Is it BYOB till then or is that wishful thinking?

We serve beer and wine now. Full liquor license is a few months down the road.

I did two pans. About 12.5lbs each. At 375* they took about 1.5 hours to get to 160*

Nice. Thanks, I’m thinking of doing one up for the ol homestead since you’re so far away.

Congrats on the business, Champ. Well deserved.

On the menu look for the Don Juan Jose.  Northerners on flour and southerners on corn.

How could that possibly sound bad?

He must be a Communist or that’s just the face he makes when he shoots a load.

Sounds awesome to me.  I sure wish someone in the Austin area would make some crazyque like that.

I was doing smoked burgers at Pappa Charlies 5 years ago. So yes, I got permission

Funny thing about having been around for a minute. Folks think they’re inventing shit that was already invented. And not saying I invented the smoked burger. More a general comment
