"If you’re bad with directions, just follow the savory smell of grilled meats wafting from the charcoal grills at Camino Alamo BBQ, a small food-trailer operation on The Drag near UT that specializes in Uyghur-style Xinjiang kabobs. There are three options for grilled skewers—lamb, beef, and chicken wings—that all get marinated in a mixture of cumin, salt, pepper, and Sichuan peppercorn before cooking over a tiny charcoal grill attached to the front of the trailer. It feels a little like a scrappy pop-up—and at one point it was—but it’s also a testament to how great the simple combination of fire and meat can really be. " - nicolai mccrary
