Texas BBQ

I’m headed to Texas in early March for Texas BBQ. Right now I have plans to do Snow, the three in Lockhart, and am preordering Franklin BBQ to skip the insane line. What are some other can’t miss joints? I’ve already done Salt Lick, Cattleack, and Pecan Lodge.

    My buddy would take me to Hard Eight BBQ when I'd be in Dallas for bidness. Their sausage and their banana pudding were always awesome.

    Did some research at the Horns board and I came up with a few more:

    Stiles Switch
    Terry Black’s
    Micklethwaith

    All for beef ribs. I should also try to find out if John Mueller has his shit together these days and is running a spot.

    Where you going in Texas? In Houston highly recommend Killens...

    I grew up in Tennessee and therefore on pulled pork. Took me a while to adapt to brisket but love it now.

    Also make sure you try burnt ends at a good BBQ place...

    I fly into San Antonio, then head down to SPI, then up through Port Aransas, Galveston/ Houston, Lafayette (Cajun food time), Dallas, and then down to Austin, and fly out of San Antonio.

    So "Hard Eight" is famous for sausage and banana pudding...

    Is this a BBQ joint or a gay bar? Or whoosh?

    The first 6 are consensual.

    Killens, is great, I've had it, but Truth is better imho. They both make every Houston Top 10 list there is:

    https://www.papercitymag.com/restaurants/houston-barbecue-best-killens-corkscrew-truth-bbq-pit-room/

    You can't go wrong with either.

    Also, if you happen to drive through Llano, TX, try Coopers. That was a staple of my youth driving to the deer lease. Always stopped in for a few pounds of brisket for the weekend hunt. You haven't lived, or plugged up your asshole completely, until the only food you ingested for an entire weekend is Coopers brisket and venison jerky from the lease. I didn't shit for a week. When it finally happened, it was like a butthole Guernica.

    You owe it to yourself to hit up at least a couple places like Coopers. This place was on the Texas Monthly Best Brisket joints in the 1980's. It's old school BBQ. The new places like Truth and Franklins are undeniably awesome, but places like Coopers set the stage for them. And hell, last I checked the list it was STILL on the Texas Monthly Top 50! Since 1962! Do it, your butthole will thank me.

    Looking at that list I'd pick Swinging door and brookstreet over a number of those.

    Not BBQ, but if you are in Houston have dinner at Papa’s Steakhouse. You’ll thank me later.
