Truth BBQ

Truth BBQ in Brenham is Texas barbecue done right. We tried everything—brisket, ribs, sausage, and all the sides—and every bite delivered. The brisket was tender with that perfect smoky bark, ribs were fall-off-the-bone good, and the sausage had the right kick. The tater tot casserole and Brussels sprouts were flavorful standouts, but the banana pudding? Hands-down one of the best we’ve ever had—rich, creamy, and nostalgic in all the right ways. Great food, great folks, and absolutely worth the drive. 🐂🔥🍌🍰

I recently ate at the Houston location and wanted to try out this location to see how they compare. This location is a LOT smaller so it was easier to find a parking spot. There was a table outside saying "Enjoy a free beer while you wait." My husband and I do not drink beer but once we got inside, the employees were telling customers to put money in the tip jar for the beer so it really isn't free. 🫤 I ordered the 2 meat plate with brisket and pulled pork and my sides were mac and cheese and tatertot casserole. The brisket was delicious and the pulled pork was tender but they lacked the flavor that the Houston location had. The portions of the sides were also smaller but tasted good. I wanted banana pudding but they said they ran out of it a few days ago. I guess they don't make their desserts daily so I ordered a slice of chocolate cake and was disappointed that it was dry/stale. I threw it away when I got home. Spent $80 on 2 meals, 2 drinks and 1 piece of stale cake. Not worth it. I used their TINY unisex bathroom before I left for my 1 1/2 trip home and although it was clean, the soap dispenser was broke! If this is the only restroom for the employees.....they are not washing their hands!!! 🤮 I do not recommend this location.

We waited for half an hour on a Saturday. There was free beer while waiting. There was no sausage and half of the sides left. We had brisket, was good, turkey good too and pulled pork that was awesome. As a side we ordered Brussels sprouts (because there was no sides left) and we loved them! On each table you have two sauces, the red one a little bit acid and the yellow one really good. There are two tables inside and several tables outside, really close to the road.

I absolutely loved everything I ate here, but I can't stress enough how amazing their brussel sprouts and brisket were. Unforgettable. However, I would pass on the boudin and sausage the second time should I come again. I didn't get to try their carrot cake which I completely regret. I couldn't get enough of their corn pudding, but not as much as their brussel sprouts. Interesting blend of sweet and tangy. I had one problem, sadly, they had no room inside and it was wet and very cold outside.

We went to several “must-have” BBQ spots in Austin, but on the way back to Houston we stopped here. By far the best! Very clean bathroom with warm water, soap and paper towels. And for the cherry on top? Free beer. It should be the only BBQ you eat day after day whilst visiting Austin. We unfortunately were only stopping for a snack because we had had breakfast, but it was lunch-timeish. We wished we ate more. We went with the recommended Brussels sprouts, tater tot casserole and the brisket.

This place has been on my list for a while and it did not disappoint. Overall, excellent BBQ and sides! I'll be back. We had brisket, ribs, and jalapeño cheddar sausage. For sides, we had corn pudding, potato salad, and brussel sprouts. The brisket and ribs were very tender and flavorful. Both had great smokiness and a nice bark. The sausage had a good flavor, but it didn't wow me so I'd probably just get brisket and ribs next time. We loved all the sides we got. The corn pudding was probably our favorite. The brussel sprouts and potato salad were also great. We would eat all those sides again. We arrived about 10:10 on a Saturday and were the first ones there. The next people showed up about 10 minutes later. They opened a few minutes early. We left about 11:30 and the line was not too long and was moving steady.

Truth BBQ is the real deal! One of the best Texas BBQ restaurants I’ve ever had was here. We had two 2 meat plates and it fed my family of 4 easily. The brisket was the highlight, super juicy and tender. All the meats were moist and surprisingly was the turkey breast. Ribs were generously seasoned and fell off the bone! The jalapeño cheese sausage had a great snap to it and was perfectly flavored and not too salty. Out of the mac & cheese, tater tot casserole and potato salad, the latter was the best. We came early (11:30am) before the rush so a short wait. There was plenty of outdoor seating with shade and free beer on ice! Great friendly service! We’ll be back on every roadtrip from Houston to Austin for now on!

I was really impressed with their meats and sides. The pork ribs and sausage are standouts among a complete lineup of excellent bbq. Corn pudding and potato salad are also superb!

Wow!! This place is amazing. They live up to the hype. The brisket was tender, flavorful, and the sauce is so good. For sides I got the collard greens and tater tot casserole. The tater tots are home made and NOT fried, which is great because I don't want all that oil from the fryer. If you were thinking about trying Truth, do not hesitate, it's the real deal.

I was put off by the family ordering in front of us because they had 20 minutes to study the menu and still had to ask a dozen questions! "What are collard greens? Which is better, turkey or brisket?" And it went on. Frustrating. Our party had brisket, jalapeño cheddar sausage, pulled pork and sides of macaroni and cheese and collard greens. The brisket had the most beautiful thick crust and smoke ring. The meat was so tender and moist that neither my son or myself used any sauce! Some of the best I have ever had. The sausage was very good as were the sides. But that brisket was just too good we went a bought an additional pound to go. The picnic tables were comfortable and most impressive was the fact that the owner came by to see how everything was. Great service! Lastly, they have free beer while waiting in line! Outstanding experience!

Truth BBQ in Brenham has been on my radar for quite a while, but I don't make it to that town very often. Well yesterday that changed after my family visited Blue Bell Creameries & man was it good. My family of 6 ordered their Texas Trinity platter to share, 1lb each of brisket & ribs & 3 sausage links (regular, jalapeño cheddar, brisket boudin), plus we added 1/4lb of turkey for my youngest. Sides for our order were mac n cheese & brisket beans. If I had to rank each the entree items from favorite to least favorite, I would go 1/brisket, 2/jalapeño cheddar sausage, 3/boudin, 4/ribs, 5/turkey, 6/mac n cheese, 7/brisket beans, & 8/regular sausage. Dont let this ranking fool you, though, because I would return & eat all of this again in a heartbeat. Their brisket, jalapeño cheddar sausage, & brisket boudin are special dishes. Truth is some of Texas' best IMO! Service was fast & friendly. The most negative things about our visit were parking, highway noise, & they only have a single, unisex public bathroom.

Brisket was perfect. Melt in your mouth tender. Jalapeño sausage - outstanding. Pulled pork moist and delicious! Sides - fantastic! Servings were huge. Free beer while you wait, but no wait for us. Worth visiting. Service was fast and friendly

Have to remove 1 star from review due to extremely limited indoor seating at the Brenham location. Foo, undoubtedly the best BBQ I've ever had, and the tater tot casserole side was a first! Soooo yummy. Service was quick and helpful.

Arrived at 12:05 pm on Friday, 2 meats left brisket and pork ribs. Ordered Brisket, pork ribs, and jalapeno sausage. Brisket was moist, smoked to perfection. Ribs was seasoned extremely well, meat was moist and fell off the bone. Sausage had a great snap, delicious, ground to my liking The original is definitely way better

The food was great, as well as the service. I went to the one in Brenham, Tx. The only problem is there is like no seating. There were two tables. Unless there was more seating I am unaware about.

Super good bbq chopped brisket sandwich, Mac and collards. Friendly staff and nice outdoor eating area.

Like most other reviews the sides here are pretty amazingly good. The corn pudding was definitely unique (something I've never had before) and oh my The brussel sprouts was to die for. The brisket was moist, flavorful, and just down right rich. We are brisket people and truth doesnt disappoint. The ribs were pretty good but we definitely enjoyed the brisket more. The hot sauces were a great addition to the meats and the tables are cleaned off, turned around pretty quickly and there was never a giant mound of trash or trays left around unattended for long. They also have to go containers for any leftovers by the utensils and soda fountain area. The staff were super friendly, helpful, and quick to clean up any messes. We made a stop here before flying out so we had 3 pieces of luggage with us that they were able to accommodate and store off to the side. I definitely look forward to coming back.

Cannot believe how good this bbq is!! Brisket was amazing, perfect bark and super juicy. Also, the sides are to die for!! Tater tot casserole and greens are fantastic. On and I almost forgot the pickled onions, omg I'm still dreaming about it!! Great spot for delicious food on a beautiful day!! Oh and dog friendly!

Holy crap. It was so lucky that we even ended up here. My husband and I were visiting some family in Houston, and we came super excited to experience Texas BBQ. We were driving with my family to Austin, and my cousin happened to recognize the logo on the side of the road and we immediately turned around. Best decision ever. The line is so long. It went way out the door and only for worse after we got there. Shoutout to the beautiful people of Truth BBQ that had free water and beer for us waiting. The one employee is a prankster though. He was coming out to denote that the beef ribs and turkey were sold out. He went to go mark the brisket as sold out, but just as everyone in line was about to have a heart attack, he said he was joking. Ha ha ha. Speaking of the brisket. Best I've ever had, and it's not close. We ordered so much once we finally got to the front of the line. And the sides are absolutely worthy of writing home about, especially the mac and cheese. The carrot cake was heavenly as well. Make it a point to stop here. It's absolutely worth the drive and the wait.

This place is literally located on highway 290 and the sound of the highway just a few feet away is deafening. If you find yourself coming here, keep in mind there are only 8 parking spaces in their lot so you'll have to park on a surrounding street. You may also want to think about getting it to go since there's only about 12 picnic tables (and 2 inside) on the property. Keep in mind that they are only open on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. What's interesting, is the fact that the building that you order from is barely big enough to park a car in. You'll probably be standing in line anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes which is very common. They also offer some good desserts, such as coconut cake and banana pudding. As for drinks, they do have a soda machine, otherwise it's water. Their three meat plate will run you about $30, but you get some very healthy side portions, a full link of sausage, two ribs, and some brisket. I have to admit I was surprised how good the sides were, from the creamy coleslaw to the beans mixed with brisket to the creamy potato salad. The sausage links were meaty and cheesy and brisket was wonderfully moist and flavorful. The ribs were perfectly smoked and the meat fell off the bone. For another $40 you can add one of their beef ribs which are a meal in itself. Five stars for all the grub, but I have to subtract half a star for poor location, inadequate parking, outdoor bathroom, lack of seating, no alcoholic beverages sold (although they were handing out free cans of Lonestar) and no AC. This is definitely some of the best barbecue you'll find in Brenham, or for that matter anywhere else, and worthy of a return trip. And when you finally check out, like most places these days, get ready for that tip screen. ****1/2 stars

Yum! I've been to Truth BBQ in Houston several times, but it was my 1st time at this location in Brenham. They have a small parking lot up front but extra parking in back. It's WAY smaller inside, but so worth the wait! The line moved briskly, which was fantastic because I was starving! I ordered the 2-meat plate with brisket and ribs. For my two sides, I ordered the mac n cheese and tater tot cheesy casserole. Oh! And I ordered the banana pudding too. We had to sit outside because there is limited sitting space inside. The day was lovely. Clear skies and cool, so it worked out. My food was so delicious! I especially loved the mouthwatering ribs. My friend enjoyed her brisket, but the pulled pork was a bit cold and hard to eat. Her two sides were great, though. Service was great. Food was scrumptious. The day was beautiful. Overall--it was a BBQ win!

Brenham location: Food was like any other BBQ place I've been to. Good, but nothing more. Loved the tater tot casserole and Mac-n-cheese! Bbq beans were good and so was broccoli cheese casserole. Coleslaw, nah. Regular brisket very dry, moist brisket better but still leaning on dry side. Pork ribs taste decent, but not over the top. Service, well after waiting in line for 45 min you'd expect a better experience. My son said "mom they were kinda rude". I don't think I'd agree 100% but it definitely wasn't welcoming. Then you move to checkout, again, not very welcoming. And don't come in asking for additional sauces unless you want to wait, again! Ambiance was ok, two tables inside, lots outside. They offer free lone star beer while you wait. That's a nice touch if you like beer. Now, I have tried Truth BBQ in Houston, TOTALLY different food and experience. It's above par!!! Go check it out!!

After visiting the Houston location I had to go back and try the original in Brenham. It didn't disappoint I had a lunch platter with brisket, ribs, and turkey. Come with an empty stomach

Amazing barbecue! Stopped in at the recommendation from family. We were heading into Houston from Waco and wanted barbecue. Friendly staff and great food. The ribs were tender and fell right off the bone. Cliche but it's the truth lol.

March 26, 2023 Came for the bluebonnets but, wanted to try this place because I read it was one of the top 10 best bbq places in Texas. Truth be told ... I've had better. Sorry, Leonard Botello IV...I'm not sure you were grilling in Brenham today but, there was nothing memorable about ANY of the food and I spent $40. I got 3 meat... brisket, pulled pork and pork ribs. Corn pudding, collards and coleslaw. Pulled pork looked like scraps and it had way too much fat in it; grossed me out. The brisket was dry so I used the bbq sauce... that tasted sweet and sour, sour like vinegar; didn't like it. The ribs were tasty and had plenty of meat. Corn dressing... blah..no onion, no nothing... The collards were ok but needed more salt & pepper, at least more ham... the coleslaw... was decent, I prefer sweeter. Dublin TX take on big red soda was great. For the money... disappointed

All of the above. I think what makes it so good, is limited opportunity to get. Not true just down home good cooking.

Truth has to seem like a throw back to most people. Old school Roadside, walk up ordering with outdoor seating so that the barbecue speaks for itself is risky, but they pull it off. I had the Houston location before this one and there are some pros and cons to each, although your gonna have to wait in line at either location. The BBQ itself is worth that 30-40min wait however, when you get good barbecue it starts to be difficult to distinguish between other good barbecue. Thankfully Truth falls into that upper ring of good bbq. Tender moist brisket, snappy flavorful sausage, fall of the bone ribs, they have it all. Cole slaw was elite, and the carb heavy sides (mac&cheese/tater tot casserole) were a little one note, still finished every bite though.

Simply, a great place for barbecue! All of the meats are delicious, with some of the best ribs I've had anywhere in Texas. Love the collard greens too! Friendly staff. It's a place that you should not pass by if they are open. It's right off the highway within a mile of the turn off from 290 headed to or from Houston. Don't want to leave out the sausage, brisket, or turkey. All very good, and the turkey is pretty much the best in Texas in my opinion. Just go!

this is for the service, not the food. We arrived at 1:20 on a Friday. long line. free beer and water while you waited. and they kept us updated with the status of the meats and sides. Finally they ran out before we go to the counter. but they were very apologetic and were very nice. I appreciate being kept informed, even though I didn't get anything. Will come back but will be earlier! And did I mention free beer (tips appreciated) while you wait?

The bbq and sides are really good. We got there before they opened and the line moved quickly.

Water & ice cold beers available while you wait! Plenty of parking, and there's also a tree outside that provides shade thank goodness. Pro tip y'all, if you can, grab an umbrella for the line. We waited roughly an hour & half in line. When you get inside, everyone is warm friendly, nobody is in a rush. Small space inside, with a few tables, maybe two small groups can fit. Plenty of outdoor seating of course. Lots of folks just make friendly convo while waiting, and you really just get a big appetite ya know. We got a Texas Trinity, which comes with sausage, ribs, brisket. The sides are bomb, bbq is excellent. Tots & collard greens were my favorite side. The beans came in close too. 10/10 would come back while going to or from Austin. Just be prepared to wait in line.

Excellent stop for BBQ on the drive between Houston and Austin. Limited indoor seating, but plenty of seats on a patio. We purchased a meat plate with brisket and two sides (potato salads and beans, plus pickles and bread). Brisket was tender and beautifully cooked. not flashy, feels authentic and tastes great.

EDIT: This review is for the Brenham location. I haven't been to the Heights location in Houston. I actually used to live in the Heights a lifetime ago. Wish Truth was there then, but I digress. Read on for my review of the Brenham location. With all the hype about this place, I was eager to give it a try. My girlfirend and I were in Brenham for a weekend getaway and we knew this was on our list of things to try. The only thing I really liked were the pork ribs. The brisket and sausage were both average.....not bad, just average. Sides were average too. I may be picky since I live in Austin where good BBQ is all over the place, but considering how much press Truth BBQ gets, I expected more.

The 5 stars and Texas Monthly rating are well deserved. From, top to bottom, this is a first rate Texas BBQ joint. The brisket is outstanding, mouth watering, and delicious. Nice thick crispy bark that packs a nicely seasoned punch. The smokey taste of the brisket is spot on. The Jalapeño, cheddar sausage is about as good as it gets. Nice snap to the case, big chunks of sausage and good spices. As to the sides the pinto beans and tater tot casserole are sublime. Very nice pairing. My wife also liked the collard greens. Service was prompt and friendly.

Small place with great bbq....smokey brisket and wonderful sausage ....and have a complementary beer while you wait!

On our way to Austin from Houston we decided to stop and enjoy some BBQ. Food and service were amazing!

I tried the brisket, ribs, Mac and cheese, corn pudding, and tater casserole. Ribs were amazing but I thought the brisket was a bit dry. The BBQ was a tad too vinegary for my taste but I still enjoyed it. All the sides were as good as I was expecting. Nothing mind blowing. Would still go again and get the ribs, Mac and cheese, and corn pudding.

This has no right being this good located in HEB grocery store. Typically you get a fastfood or pop up type food, but for whatever reason HEB put a ACTUAL REAL BBQ restaurant. All I can say is THANK YOU‼ Now, I just hope my wife sends me a text to pick up a few things as an excuse to eat me some of that Q. The Q is not some over processed multi-chain BBQ slop neither. They actually know how to cook it. I have yet to come across anything I wouldn't be proud to serve and take credit for. Just wish you could hide it better from the grocery baskets. Hope you guys expand this to more of your locations.

I've always wanted to compare Truth to Nathan's but since I love Nathan's so much I never went to Truth. Now I've been to Truth and can say that to my taste Nathan's is much much better! The ribs were very smokey and although just a tad over still had a good bite. I can do much better on my grill. The brisket was very good but far from great. Good smoke ring but a tad too well done for my taste. $48 for lunch and still hungry. Nathan's is not cheap either buy I've never left hungry and usually have some meat to take home. You don't have to wait outside to order at Nathan's and you can eat inside. To me the win goes to Nathan's and now I can say I've been to Truths

Loved the casual but cool Texas bbq vibe, the helpful customer service, the freshly pickled veggies that are served on the side, and the thick hunks of perfectly barbecued meat. Also, the complimentary can of ice-cold beer that you're invited to help yourself to from a cooler as you wait on a hot Texas day is an excellent touch that takes this place over the top. Their side dishes are excellent, and I love that everything is served on a tray lined with parchment paper - a fun presentation of delicious food! We have been back several times and only wish we had a Truth BBQ closer to where we live. If you like quality Texas bbq, you'll walk away full and happy - this is your place!

Been to the Houston location a few times. It is a large modern space with a parking lot out front. During the week there is a line but it seems to go pretty fast- 30-45 minutes. May be hard to do if you need to get back to work. But I see a lot of people pre- order take out. The brisket and ribs are juicy and tender. Loved the brisket boudin. The sides I enjoyed are the corn pudding and tater tot casserole both had a creamy cheesy goodness that I love. There is a dessert case with cakes and pudding. I haven't tried any but they do look good. One of the best BBQ restaurants in Texas right here in the Inner Loop.

My husband and I stood in line for over an hour today for some Truth BBQ. We got there 45 minutes after they opened and there was already 30 people in line. We figured since there were that many people waiting then it must be worth the wait - and indeed it was. We waited so long so we decided to go big and order the Truth Texas Trinity - Brisket, ribs, sausages, and a bunch of sides. I can't say which is my favorite because everything was so good (even the collard greens lol).

Solid BBQ but not worth waiting in line for due to so many other top notch BBQ places in Texas. There is a huge disparity from what I sampled from their booth at the TM Monthly BBQ fest and their Brenham location. At the festival, their brisket was so tender, I could barely pick it up; I quickly went back for seconds! I noticed they were ranked #3 in TM Monthly but noticed that the magazine specifically referred to their Houston location, which I thought was odd. I figured their Brenham location could not be that different, right? I have yet to try the Houston location but the brisket I was served up here just did not compare to what they served at the festival. It's great for Texas standards but almost mediocre for a top ten joint. With so many places stepping up their bbq game throughout Texas, I can't justify spending an hour in line in the hot sun for just pretty decent BBQ.

We ventured out to try a new place and visit with friends. Partner ordered a two meat plate with a double order of greens. I had the rib plate with two sides. Tater tot side was too salty. The ribs without sauce were bland but tender. Sauce was okay. The coleslaw lacked flavor. It needs to be sweet or tangy not blah. Greens were great. Brisket and sausage were good. Seating inside is very limited. Outside has a number of picnic tables covered by umbrellas or a roof. No alcohol is served. Variety of soft drinks. Order inside and it gets brought to you or you carry it. Served on trays.

This is a very good place for your BBQ fix. Service with a smile, and if you need a little help to figure out what you want to try .. hint ask for a small sample. Take it to go or do like us and enjoy the out door area, with a Lone Star beer.

Absolutely a stop for lunch if traveling between Houston and Austin. It is a small place with only a couple tables inside but there are a bunch of seats outside. All tables had bbq sauce and napkins. The food was good, I went with the 2 meat plate - brisket and sausage. Both were good, brisket was moist. Sausage had good taste. Parking is limited in their lot but you can park along the road in back. The folks preparing the food were extremely nice. Go for it if in the area.

Outstanding!!!! Had the ribs, brisket, Mac and cheese collard greens! The best ever!!!! And family from East Texas, so I know BBQ! Keep up the good work!!!

Best. BBQ. Ever. All sides are delicious. My favorites are the pinto beans with brisket & the corn pudding! The texture of the beans are perfect with the pieces of brisket, it makes it for a perfect bite. Corn pudding melts in your mouth, it's addicting and I'll eat it warm or cold! Go. Enjoy. Go Back!!

Consistently in the top ten for BBQ in the Great State of Texas. I don't think I have to say anything else. Get there early, you won't be disappointed.

Awesome, wonderful, & Yummmmm. This is the best example of Texas BBQ. Service is also the best. Ambiance even in the summer is awesome.

Really good BBQ! The sides were yummy, Mac and cheese and potato dish. We were there on a Saturday, get there early if you don't want to stand outside for 45 minutes.

We tried nearly everything and it was top shelf bueno. Sauce, which I avoid so it doesn't interfere with the intended meats, is special A+. Go early to beat the hipsters in line get a bottle of their sauce for your next cookout.

So trying to find somewhere open on a Sunday and during labor day weekend was quite a challenge for us and we landed here. Thankfully we landed here not a minute later (around 1ish) as many people point out its hit or miss and when you miss, well you miss. We walked in with being one of the last three customers of the day. Obviously this meant our options were limited but let me tell you I don't mind all the public before me making the choices of what I was left with. Chopped brisket, house sausage, and jalapeno cheddar sausage, with sides of mac n cheese, cornbread pudding, pinto beans, and tot casserole all comes together with some golden hued butter bread. (3 meat & 1 meat plates were enough to feed 3 adults and 2 kids and still were beyond full). My kids not complaining and eating everything given to them is a testament to the food, it was delicious. Parking is limited, plenty of seating outside, not so much inside I counted 2 large tables which could be ultimately 4 tables or 3 given the rearrangement possibilities. Free beer or water while you wait, they only allowed 6 deep in line inside at a time. Glad we found this spot and again arrived when we did! Look forward to checking out their location here in Houston.

WOW! Went today and was a bit skeptical but This is the best value bbq of all times! The Trinity is exceptional value! You won't find this much quality bbq at this price. Also The 2 sides were massive and this menu item served 4 or more people easily! I'm a a huge fan of Terry blacks bbq! But I was highly impressed by this! The brisket is super tender and delish! The pork ribs were fall off the bone tender! And OMG! The pepper jack sausage is the BEST bbq joint sausage I've had so far! Definitely an amazing bbq place! I would highly recommend! Also the staff there is very friendly and generous! Exceptional bbq! They are indeed the TRUTH! Now I have to out their Houston location and if they also carry the same service and quality PS! When ordering brisket always! Ask for moist brisket! Lean brisket imo is only good for baked potato etc, and is too dry without anything else but always the best brisket cut is the moist cut! At any bbq place/joint!

Go for the sausage but stay for the ribs. The sausage menu is fluid so you have to keep going back to try all the new flavors. Spare ribs are very enjoyable as well. Only 8 seats inside so came prepared to sit under the roof of the dining area if they are busy. All the folks behind the counter are friendly and have great descriptions to help you order.

One of my favorite things about Texas is BBQ, and one of my favorite BBQ spots is Truth. I would plan my drives between Austin & Houston so I could arrive there just about time for them to open for the day. All the meats are excellent and they just happen to have the worlds greatest side dish called "corn pudding". A combination corn casserole and dressing (stuffing) dish that is to die for. On top of that they have triple layer cakes for dessert that will knock you off your feet if you're still standing from the meat.

Great BBQ if you're in the area. No indoor seating, so it can be pretty hot in the summer. The line moved pretty quickly.
