We're living in a golden era for Texas barbecue. The quality of meat and sides across the state is as good as it's ever been. Cover versions of Texas 'cue are popping up nationwide, and places are being celebrated for their mastery of the Lone Star style. The awards and honors? There are so many to count.
Having tried most of the local, I can't imagine anything in Brazos Valley making the list.histag10 said:
Was there a BCS one listed? The closest I saw in the article you linked is maybe Spring?

Here's a 95 page thread on his most recent ranking. I think we're due for another top 50 next year.FlyRod said:histag10 said:

Need to check with Daniel Vaughn, the BBQ guy who writes for Texas Monthly. He's mentioned a few here.
Memphis sucks, KC is okay, haven't tried Carolina.doubledog said:Quote:

Sorry Memphis, K.C. and the Carolinas

LOL I try to be transparent. However, I stand by the comment. I feel our local BBQ is poor in the area.techno-ag said:Grmpy said:Having tried most of the local, I can't imagine anything in Brazos Valley making the list.histag10 said:

Username checks out.
I'll have to be more diligent and try the places you listed.FlyRod said:
Lots of our local BBQ hides in plain sight. The Station is a good example. What's the Deal is very good. Lamar and Nicky's…a soul food joint that has good BBQ. It's here. But takes a bit of work to zero in on it at times.

Truth BBQ in Brenham was great and would love to have it locally, the Pit Room down in Houston has been very good... Enjoyed Terry Blacks, etc...

L&Js in Brenham is better than Truth... But that is the point, good BBQ is subjective.
What's The Deal and 1775 are to me the two best in the area. As mentioned previously, Coopers to me was average at best. LJ's in Brenham is very good.Grmpy said:I'll have to be more diligent and try the places you listed.FlyRod said:

I would agree with you......
But, then we would both be wrong..
Another good one is Sho Nuff Smokehouse BBQ - they are out on Tabor Road on Saturdays.FlyRod said:
