Was about to post this and see you beat me to it. (I wonder if your niece knows my daughter. Also a friend of Reid's.)

Heads up Waco. If you haven't been to @guessfamilybbq change that immediately. F & Sat only, for now.

Guess Family BBQ in Waco blesses the city with truly excellent BBQ. Brisket & Ribs are REALLY well done as is today's special Beef Cheek.

I went to the Aggie baseball game yesterday, so I missed my usual Friday BBQ stop.

I missed the beef cheek. This makes me sad.

Honky Tonk Kid has some truly GREAT gumbo last week. It had shrimp, sausage and some burnt ends in it. Unlike anything I've ever had.

Also, EMY, I made your usual Friday BBQ stop for you.

I figured you'd be there now that Lent has ended.

Missing the beef cheek does not make me happy.

a podcast about Texas BBQ. The guy talking is one of 12 members of the committee who selects 50 Best in Texas for those issues. He said, specifically, that there are new places opening up that are too new to make the list. The ONLY NAME of the new places that he mentioned was Guess Family Barbecue. He said he got a taste of it and can't wait to go back and do some more research on that trailer in Waco.

This was in my email from my daughter. When I find the origin I will post the source.

The podcast is cued to the TM part of the podcast.

Some of the guys waiting were talking about that podcast today. I think it was a podcast from BBQ Snob.

He goes to eat at a place 2-3 times before he writes a full review on it.

He wrote the review after visit #1.

He's been back the following two weeks.

A place in Whitney is on here. Seems like it's worth a visit. FWIW, it appears our places here in Waco that we like were both too new to have made the list.

Could it be because they are trucks, not actual places. Therefore not consistent at a certain location?

there are several trucks/trailers on the list including some in the top 10. I think one of the editors even said somewhere that they are just too new.

I would love to try them, but I am not going to drive 35 mile for any truck that might or might not be open when I get there and then have to eat in the car or outside. Give me airconditoning and I really prefer a waiter to having to try to carry my food on a tray. I have a major limp and it is tough.

Why hassle with going to Waco when we have Miller's?

I've eaten at Mueller's once...about two years ago. We specifically took an overnight trip in that direction to eat there. I won't go back. I had a rib. Huge and had to work hard to chew it. Husband had brisket and he wasn't impressed. I guess we hit a bad day as it seems everyone else is in love with Mueller's. Still won't go back.

Your secret is out, hoss. I got to Guess at 11:10 and the line was about ten deep. When I left around noon, they were already out of chicken, pulled pork, and sausage.

Saw a post where they were sold out in less than two hours.

I ran into former Texags favorite, Jason Cook, at Guess today.

He was as nice in person as he was online.
