Burnt Bean Co Sunday brunch is like nothing else. It's not "BBQ" in the traditional sense although most of their brunch dishes include smoked meats like the barbacoa and brisket huevos rancheros, but honestly it's so damned good we don't care what category you put them in.

The variety of proteins & sides in Texas BBQ has never been better than now, and Interstellar's menu is a prime example.
Luscious pulled lamb, their take on hash & rice, sweet tea pork belly burnt ends, smoked scalloped potatoes, ranch beans, & homemade tortillas were our selections for this visit

If you've listened to our podcast you know Tom Micklethwait is one of our most respected pitmasters and chefs in Texas BBQ.
Visiting his new brick and mortar was another great experience and we can't wait to see what's to come for him and his crew.
Visit there soon!!!

You know we love the classics and the "original" at Southside Market is one of our faves. A bit milder than the old days, the flavor profile is unique and the simple recipe still warms our hearts

We ordered a lot at Snow's! BBQ breakfast at 8am
Pro tip is to bring a slicing knife and order your pork steak unsliced. The keeps the moistness locked in

Texas BBQ Road trip time!
This weekend we hit up Snow's, Southside, Micklethwait's new Brick and Mortar, and Interstellar
At 28 degrees the line for Snow's was reasonable even if the weather wasn't
They have fire pits along the wait line to help keep warm
