Is waiting in line for fancy BBQ still a thing? Haven't heard much about this since the covid mess started. I'm talking about the queing in the morning kind of line, not a lunch rush line.

Misread your post, but yes, I think it's still a thing

Their food is good, but definitely not that good.

Nor is there a need to be there that early.

People who stand in line for BBQ are slightly lower in the social weirdo pecking order than kolache "it's a klobasnek" dorks but higher than Jeep decorator dorks.

I think we should delve a little deeper into this. Where do you rank people that que up for special release beer? What about the people that go from Specs to Specs buying up all the special release beer?

Slightly above adults who collect limited edition action figures. Both of which are above people who go to Astros games just for the giveaways.

I've only ever stood at line for more than an hour at Franklins. And it's like a tailgate party that you are guaranteed victory at the end of, if it was just a line it would suck but still be the best brisket you've ever had

I just wanted to say that it was not me standing in line. They posted it online. I ordered Corkscrew to be picked up, I'm not waiting in line.

It was to get one of the tickets they have on weekends to guarantee a spot in the front of the line when they opened. It's still extreme to show up that early, and he may have stuck around and waited the whole time for all I know, but he didn't have to with the ticket. Just come back later and skip everyone when the time comes. Beats the hell outta showing up later and standing in line in the cold for a while anyway.

I waited well over an hour at Salt Lick circa 2008.

We were nicely drunk from our beer cooler by the time we sat down.

Standing in a shorter line to get a ticket to skip the longer line or getting drunk while in the line are flimsy excuses for justifying standing in line at all.

I've never understood people's issue with this. Would you rather eat a 7/10 meal and hurry back home, or eat a 10/10 and sit around drinking beers with your friends for a while longer.

I think it's just people that don't really enjoy food that much and can't understand people who do.

How about people who dress up in cosplay for the Renaissance Festival vs dress up for comic book conventions?

Oh, and adults who are "really into Disney" and go several times a year sans kids?

the chain mall titty women are ok in my book. All the rest are slightly below the bbq line people.

What about the guy that brings some obscure pet to a large crowd event? Used to be snake man, but snake man has diversified to other strange pets now, so I am lumping them all together.

I had to wait 30 minutes for Killens a few years ago and free lone stars made it ok.

I used to think the Q line dorks were lame until I found out it's an excuse to sit around and drink beer. Genius.

What's weirder, standing in line for BBQ or standing in line at Petco to get dog pictures with Santa Clause?

Also consider waiting 10-15 minutes for a table at a sit down restaurant, sitting down, getting drinks, etc, and ordering, food is rarely to you within 30 minutes. But wait 30 minutes in line for bbq and you're weird.

I'd wait 30 minutes for truth any day.

Pinkerton is the ****, and the line is brisk if at all when I go. Parking is a different story.

There's no 'gotta line up for hours' at any of those ... sure a small wait during lunch rush, but nothing more than standing in line at freebirds or sh*t like that

Yeah the parking blows at P's (and the others for that matter) but I like I can go get a viet iced coffee at hughies across the street afterwards

Parking could be a little tight at Roegels, especially pre-COVID during lunch rush, but just get your ride washed at Best Car Wash while you wait and eat they take of the parking.
