Rockwood in the Austin area

Options
Is Rockwood available at any of the ACE Hardware stores in the greater Austin area?

I know I can order it but I want to try it this Saturday on some beef ribs.

Thanks in advance!

    It's available at Ace in Spicewood so I assume some of the others have some. Faraday's Kitchen store in Bee Cave is bringing it in as well. Not sure if it's there yet but I talked to him 2 weeks ago and he said he was bringing it in. 

    I have 6 bags right now so you can have one of mine can't find one.

    Same as CenTex said.  We buy ours at the Ace Hardware in Spicewood right now.  Call ahead because they might need to order it, or have a limited supply.  Call Faraday's Kitchen Store in the Hill Country Galleria to see if they have it in yet.  My husband and I are going to be teaching some BGE classes there, as is CenTex.  It's a really cool store and they are new to selling BGEs, but very excited about it.

    Cool deal. Not a bad day! I haven't eaten there but had some hours old takeout a year ago or so. It wasn't good but that's not their fault. Franklin isn't good in that state either. let me know what you think. Been meaning to give it a try.

    It's good. Maybe not "All Good". 

    Schmidts is better.

    You could go a little further out and go to Opie's, depending on how much time you have.  We really like it alot!

    Oh wow. I'm not a fan of Schmidts so guess I'll pass on It's all good.

    I saw it at Breed and Co. on 29th about a week ago. They had about a dozen bags out and it was about $25 per bag
