Meteorite BBQ Texas style

"Meteorite is a blink-and-you-miss-it barbecue trailer on the eastern edge of Westlake that’s run by a former Korean kickboxing champion. As fascinating as that story is, the Texas-style barbecue at Meteorite serves is even better. Their signature pepper-crusted brisket is neatly trimmed with just a thin edge of fat right along the edges, yet so tender it pulls apart with a soft tug. All meats are available by the half-pound, but if it’s your first time, go with the three-meat platter to sample the rich pulled pork and spare ribs in mustard-y sauce, too. Just be aware that Meteorite is only open on weekdays until 4pm—if you work Downtown, though, it’s the perfect takeout lunch." - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren
