"There are no shortage of barbecue offerings in Houston, and even more so if you’re visiting the Houston Rodeo, but for a classic take on Texas ‘cue, consider dining at Pappas Bar-B-Q, which has an outpost near NRG. Take on the behemoth beef or pulled pork baked potato, or dig into brisket, sausage, and mac & cheese. In need of morning sustenance? Pappas has breakfast tacos with fillings like chorizo, smoked chicken, and brisket." - Megha McSwain
