The Ultimate Texas BBQ Road Trip | Eater

"Never a city content to leave any culinary bragging rights to its brothers to the north, San Antonio’s barbecue scene has exploded in recent years. One fine example is Smoke Shack, a well-loved pit stop that isn’t afraid to smother a little southern love along with its meats. Go beyond the typical meat plate and get yourself some Frito Pie, Smoke Shack Mac, or a Brisket Grilled Cheese. Because what goes better with brisket than some decadent oozy cheese? Your visit to Smoke Shack doesn’t have to end when you leave, either. Bring some meat (or a sandwich, prepared meal, or charcuterie) home from the Smoke Shack Meat Market." - Cynthia Drake
