Well. I made it to TX, so you know that I need some brisket inside of me as fast as possible.
I wasn't sure where I may end up for said brisket. Cruising to the hotel we passed this place. I had never heard of it before. David looked it up and it looked pretty damn good.
Walked in and they are flying "Yelp's Top 100 Places to Eat 2025" on the TV's. What!?!? Well I will be damned! I accidentally found this place? I am not sure I've ever been to another on that list before.
It's big, boisterous, and two stories on the inside. It screams Texas BBQ as soon as you walk in the door.
They have a place for buying branded items such as apparel, rubs, and sauces.
The line to get in is well decorated and you can see the menu board to decide what you want easily. So far, so good...
Got in line and waited with anticipation. The guys in front of me had some major camera equipment and ordered the whole place on a tray. I dig. I got a pic of the receiving their tray of goodies.
It's my turn and I say I want "fatty, please. He cuts a giant chunk out of the end and throws it on the scale. It was like 3" plus thick. WTH.
I asked for another, smaller slice and he obliged. I got a sausage and some ribs too. He threw in an extra rib I guess for giving me the crap pieces of brisket and ribs. I should have spoken up, but I was with a group.
You go down the line and serve yourself sides after you get meats. The sides are individually priced and not sold by weight.
I feel they should be weighed like the meat. I must have missed the price list, I was pretty high honestly. I got little samples of sides and was charged the same as the others who mounded it up. I like to try lots of things, not eat a pound of mac & cheese.
Oh well, stop griping, you are in TX, and you have BBQ, Adam.
Favorite thing on the plate was the sausage. I had the end of the brisket and the end of the rack of ribs so hooray for me! Beans were good and so was the macaroni, but I was here for the meats and just wasn't that into it honestly.
Spicy sauce was good, but I got it from the wrong floor, and gosh damn, don't do that!
Free soft serve milk product at the end with the free dessert is a plus. The ice milk stuff just left a bad taste in my mouth. Just like the dang meat I got. Ugh.
I'll try it again if I am ever nearby. Off days in BBQ happen.
