That is a great chop. No room on the tray. They were in excellent form today. We got there early and got to eat off the first run so it was all cooked perfectly.

so everything is dipped huh?  Is it meh un-dipped?  Overpowering or complimentary?  

And what the hell?  I thought you were only allowed to cook in your new kitchen for a year or so.

Is it worth the drive from the Austin area during my spring-time Texas assault?

Food looks good, thanks for sharing the pics.

The brisket and that beef rib are makin' me weak in the knees.

And you're brave for hitching the KJ up to the back like that! Maybe run a cord through the DFMT so it doesn't pop off somewhere?

probably not. We can do all the damage you want in austin and driftwood.

Ate there last month and it was good, but extremely expensive. I had beef ribs, pork ribs and brisket. My friend had about the same thing with a couple side dishes and drinks. I think the whole bill was about 70 bucks. Ridiculous.

its on there pretty damn tight. May put the cap in the car on the ride home but so far so good. 2hrs to go. I suckered Lakewade in to driving the 8 hour haul so it just might be time to pour a Tito's in the Yeti Rambler and settle on in.

it's kinda upper middle of the road price wise. Cheaper than franklins, more than several others. I think most people order way too much. That's the trick. We ordered 4.5lbs of meat, 4 sides, 4 beers and it was $102. We have 2 lbs of meat left for sammiches for the rest of the trip

Everything looks good.  The Llano location can be hit or miss, especially on a busy saturday.  Glad you got there for the early bird overnight cook.  Love your blue yeti

Some day when I'm really retired, I'd love to do a BBQ tour through Texas.  The highlight of my recent ill-fated Texas foray was all the great BBQ.  Franklin's, Killen's, Gatlin's.  It takes so much time - not only to visit all the great places, but also to recover from the gluttony prior to experiencing the next incredible spot.  I'm up to the challenge!!

The Cen-Tex Smoker

It's on now. Tito's is flowing and wings going on the KJ jr. Big pot of chili on the stove and we cleaned out the fancy wine we had been saving throughout the year. Headed to the thirsty goat tavern for some live music and revelry after dinner. Happy new year all- Tex

Happy New Year! What a way to celebrate.
