    My house, but I'm partial. Smoked some spatchcocked chickens and ribs for the neighbors yesterday, and they love me...

    As Costco brisket has finally moved south of $4/pound, I have one in the fridge, and will be smoking it some time this week.

    I know that doesn't answer your question, but I rarely visit bbq places anymore, as the prices are a turnoff.

    The missus and I went to the new one on 1431 Friday, and ol' Jack was there, standing at a table with some of his peeps. Three comments:
    1. Jack is shorter than I thought he would be.
    2. 1/2 price appetizers during happy hour are a steal. Great food, even better prices.
    3. The service at Jack's is fantastic, even more so when the boss is there, with his head on a swivel.
    Yum!

    No no, let's not go that route. Let's instead focus on what part of town you'll be in, and narrow the choices down appropriately.

    What you can plan to do it go to the Oasis and mock its prices and quality. Sunsets are cool, but they aren't THAT cool.

    Didn't we used to go to car shows out there?

    On that topic, is TTC still a thing? I'm thinking of scraping the sticker off the Tundy and the 40, and replacing it with this:

    That might get me out of a ticket or two.

    All seltzer tastes like ass. Like the alcoholic water version of IPAs. I do not understand the appeal.

    Human achievement peaked at the milk chocolate stout.

    Agreed about Styles, it's only popular because that was a shooting location from the movie Dazed and Confused.

    A little something every chance we get.
    If you wade through the garbage that is the Austin C&C FB page...
    This is about 2 weeks old.
    "guy A:
    • I believe so yes. SW sold it to them when they started doing it there (or around that time).
    "Guy B:
    • Correct. COTA owns the rights to Cars & Coffee Austin. They are going to make it a summer series May - September this year."
    As for TTC?

    Y'all made me hungry while I was working today!

    Interstellar BBQ off 620 is really good. Haven't went since the Top 50 came out. Used to be able to just walk up but heard the lines are long now.
