I get this funky high on the yellow sun.

As someone who has done Franklin’s twice by getting there at like 730 (worth it, don’t at me) 5am for a line up is completely insane to me. That’s well past the point of diminishing returns.

Along those lines, was in Austin this weekend for a work thing my wife had and finally went to La Barbecue. Never went to the trailer, but a 1050 arrival / 1125 food order for its incredible quality was perfection.

I don't care one whit for the 'awesome bbq' places like pecan lodge or franklins. Hutchins and hard eight are much more accessible and just as good, in bougie north of dallas.

I prefer Rudy's to Franklin's and I don't have to show up in the morning to wait to eat, as I imagine there are still lines for that funk.

The key to doing Pecan Lodge is to go through the express line that is 1/4 of the wait and doesn't require anything other than knowing that you're paying $100 and getting all the normal poo poo. That's all the line is for. I wish more places would do the same system.

Most of the long rear end line places let you put in big rear end orders days ahead for a scheduled pick up. Since those are only occasionally places anyways, just split a big order with friends or something to take back home and skip the line.

can you explain that $100 box more? seems like a decent idea

but yeah I will never understand the folks that wait in line for places like this. I'd rather be at bill millers at dawn on a saturday because at least they have breakfast

There's the normal line then an "express line" where you only order "The Trough." You can add on sides as well so if you're with a group you might as well just do that.

THE TROUGH
79 (Serves 4-5)
1 beef rib, 1lb of pork ribs, 1lb brisket, 1/2 lb of pulled pork & 3 sausage links

Yeah waiting in line at Pecan Lodge is a waste of time, just get the Trough and gently caress off.

Heim Barbecue was really good the only time I got it, near Lovefield airport. They make a corn dog with any sausage they carry (or a hot dog if you prefer), and their burgers are supposedly really really good but I just got $200 worth of BBQ last time I went with a side corn dog.

When brisket is good, it's really good, but most brisket is just disappointing.

All meat is good. Some is most consistent to prepare good. Some is better than others when done right.

Coppell’s Hard Eights brisket, sausage, and ribs are garbage tier. Their chicken and turkey is good though. I think it has to do with them keeping it over a pit and it dries out.

The problem with brisket is that it takes all day/16 hours to cook, and then it's not guaranteed that it's edible. gently caress that poo poo; cook St. Louis/baby back ribs or pork belly in 5-6 hours and enjoy three days of leftovers as opposed to 10 pounds of tripe.

You have full control over how "edible" it is at the end of the 16 hrs. Set your temp appropriately (maybe 230, down to 215 it's a thick boi) and start doing stab checks at 195 or so.

And it comes with plenty of lovely white bread and pickles. And hopefully a decent potato salad but everyone fucks that one up

We used to go eat at Artz all the time before it closed and I'd always get their pork ribs which were like massive porkchops with a sliver of bone in them. Great poo poo, really miss Artz's.

Thanks Greg! We Texans appreciate all your hard work in ensuring so many extra people would die to pacify your insane base. This day wouldn't have felt nearly as good if only 10,000 of us died from COVID.

BBQ chat: the brisket torpedos at Ten50 in Dallas are enough to be a good meal with some sides. Do not attempt to combine with a regular order of meat. Or do, I’m not your dad.

HEB is selling brisket queso that you grill or oven bake. I may give it a shot this weekend.

Grape jelly makes meatballs good and I will fight this fight until I can’t fight no more because I ate too many meatballs.
