It's all business, right from the moment you drive in. This is how it's gonna be. Don't fool around, drive in without stopping, pay in cash. In Texas barbecue heaven!
You just know, when you see this,
and this, that it is going to be right. And it is. Or was, for a significant portion of the meal.
What you are having here is MEAT! Beef platter, sausage platter, ribs platter, or some combination of those. You'll get normal sides for this kind of a meal: ranch-house potatoes, beans, coleslaw, onions, pickles, and bread. Bring your own beer or settle for tea, soft drinks, or water. Simple, isn't it?
Just one thing, it's the best barbecue ever. The meat is all top of the line. The brisket is fork tender, crisp on the outside with burnt ends. The sausage is just the best you ever ate (direct quote from our party). The ribs are tender and juicy. The sauce, if you use it, is wonderful.
And the desserts are outstanding. A simple china bowl filled with peach and blackberry cobbler with homemade vanilla ice cream. A homemade pecan pie ala mode. Just perfect, except for one tiny detail. During dinner E reached over and forked up my dessert bite of brisket (the last piece, the one with the crisp burnt end) and ate it! I thought she was joking, or I would have jabbed her with a fork. Can you believe someone you think you know, someone who you have been married to for 32 years would do that to you? Well, she did. Hence the title.
My advice: just go here. It's the best. But be on your guard!
