Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Franklin BBQ in Austin

Great ending to the Natty trip. Meat coma is slowly setting in as I wait to board. 10 out of 10 would highly recommend. Got a pound of brisket, pound of ribs, half pound of pulled pork, potato salad, and their bourbon banana creme pie between the three of us. Potato salad was the only thing that wasn't to my preference. Had a little too much vinegar and mustard for my taste.

    Oh, and those sausages were damn tasty (chortle). The jalapeño cheddar was an 11 out of 10.

    Yeah, they look good. Did you take it down all at once or bite by bite?

    Shiner Bock with the meal?

    Inch by inch, of course.

    I also learned that I need to get an offset smoker of some kind.

    I had a Shiner on-base at JBLM last week at a party at a Colonel's house. It was fine for a lager. CSB.

    I never could really tell the difference with suggested pairings of food and drinks but had a Shiner with some brisket one time and it kind of made sense for once

    We hit 4 Houston breweries yesterday capped off by dinner from Pinkerton’s BBQ where I met Roman Tomanshoff - I’ll post the CSB details of my conversation with him in the Wam tomorrow.

    Brisket and a cheddar jalapeño sausage were fucking delicious. Sides were ok.

    Went to Saint Arnold, 8th Wonder, True Anomaly and Turkey Forrest breweries. 8th Wonder wasn’t as good as I hoped but the rest were great. Saint Arnold is massive and was a cool spot. Turkey Forrest got selected because it was close to Pinkerton and was a fun spot with us, one of the owners and another couple the only people there.

    We made it to Ninfas for lunch with friends from Lexington who were down for an appointment at the cancer center. Thank you to @Sobchak_Security for that recommendation. Mrs Nacho says it was the best margarita she’s ever had and she’s had a lot.

    Houston didn’t disappoint on the good side.

    People forget Bock is a lager.

    I was in Shiner yesterday:




    For BBQ I hit up City Market in Luling on the way to AUS.

    We hit Pinkerton’s yesterday, it was good. The brisket was fantastic, as was the jalapeño cheddar sausage. The pork ribs were pretty good, but nothing special. I thought the duck and sausage jambalaya was really good, but I wasn’t impressed with the Mac and cheese or potato salad. The smoked bread pudding was straight fire. I think their brisket was ever so slightly better than Truth’s, but Truth had better ribs and way better sides.
