I think that they used to be out on OSR. They have been known to try and capitalize off 1775's success when people confuse the two.

I haven't had the BBQ but haven't heard much about it.

They park in the beer joint parking lot across from Smitty K's. Used to park at the Cole Stop gas station.


They haven't been known to do that. He even mentions them on his Facebook page to avoid confusion.

They're both good but 1775 is better. Never got them confused either.
He changed his name from Mr. BBQ to 1976 after 1775 started getting recognized by TX Monthly and other media outlets. I have a screenshot from Facebook to prove it but cant figure how to post it.


There have definitely been people that have asked here, and on Facebook, if 1775 is located wherever 1976 is at the moment. It's pretty clear he's tried to swindle people into buying his product.

My wife (class of 91) owns Kid to Kid in Bryan at Boonville and Hwy 6 (next to Kroger). She sure could use some foot traffic. Appreciate if my fellow TexAger's could help get the word out!

Didn't know this existed! We've been putting off buying new clothes until after her birthday this Saturday, but we'll definitely swing by next week.

D-Bat Aggieland is being built near Edible Field in Bryan.

Appears to be a chain of batting cages, place for parties, etc. with locations in Houston and DFW.

I'm not knocking the restaurant going into that location but I'm disappointed because Jesse had told me he was trying to get that location. Jesse's would make a killing in College Station.

Buff City Soup coming to Jones Crossing by I Heart Mac & Cheese.
While bison soup sounds interesting, it is Buff City Soap, a sorta hippie soap place like Lush.


They may have some confused customers when they open because the other half just told me about a new soup place opening in Jones Crossing.

To balance the hippy soap and soup shops, 5.11 is going into the old Jos. A Bank space. I haven't seen that posted here.

Good copy. I didn't know that, but I have seen him give props to 1775, His BBQ is pretty good but 1775 is the best in town.

I haven't been in probably two years, but right when the brick and mortar opened in 2017 or so it always seemed pretty crowded. Was this just an inevitable covid casualty?

The express model combined with a bad hire at manager sunk it. Food quality went down, customer service went down, and covid did the rest. Sucks, but that's how life goes

Darn that's too bad, always thought it was pretty good and the location was great. Never tried the express model, but I've heard the quality had dipped.

Most of that entire block is going to get screwed over when the underpass wipes out the visibility and access to it.

Actually the owners have a master plan to raze it and redevelop a vertical mixed use development.

Bush-Wellborn Crossing



Nothing is going on. After looking at the website and checking on Google. There was never a funded project. In fact funding was denied for the project in 2020.

Looks likes they made apartments and businesses move for no reason.
