Heading to a friends in Warner Robins, GA. A friend and fellow egger lives there, and we are going to an air show at Robins AFB tomorrow. The headliner is the USAF Thunderbirds! I’m taking a leisurely and scenic route south today and decided to visit The Oink Joint in Zebulon GA. This one has […]
I helped out with another great class at Big Green Egg Culinary Center @bgeculinary recently. This one was an all day Egg boot camp. Unlike past boot camps, this was not focused on traditional BBQ, but on a wide variety of recipes to allow the attendees to hone their skills across the spectrum of egging […]
It was an excellent week in Texas. While the blog entries have focused primarily on the food, we took in a lot of central Texas experiences. The San Antonio missions, including the Restored By Light show at the San Jose mission. The LBJ ranch, the War in the Pacific museum in Fredericksburg, the hometown of […]
The final stop of the BBQ crawl was the original Salt Lick BBQ in Driftwood, Texas, southwest of Austin. I have seen this restaurant featured on multiple lists and TV shows. I was always left with two images in my mind when I thought of this historic location. The horseshoe shaped BBQ pit and the […]
Day five was the most anticipated day of the trip with a visit planned to the legendary Franklin’s BBQ in Austin. Aside from the food, Franklin’s is known for the experience of waiting in line for your food. It looks more like a tailgating experience than just waiting in line. I had mixed feelings at […]
I had heard some high recommendations for a San Antonio BBQ restaurant named Two Bros. It looked very inviting with indoor seating as well as outdoor picnic tables in a shaded courtyard. There was a playground for the kids, and another for the adults with a bocce ball court. The ordering here had the options […]
A couple of friends were driving from Houston to join the BBQ crawl, so we decided to meet in Luling, TX to visit City Market to start day three of our tour. The restaurant is located in downtown Luling. It has two rooms with indoor seating. One of the rooms has a service area where […]
One of the BBQ places I kept seeing high recommendations for was Snow’s BBQ in Lexington, Texas. I have several friends joining me on this trip, and I am looking forward to sharing all these great BBQ meals. However, they are coming to Texas over the next couple of days and Snow’s is only open […]
I flew into the San Antonio airport on late Friday morning. Wasted no time getting some BBQ for lunch. I had found a well reviewed place called the Smoke Shack, which was a permanent trailer on the lot of a former gas station, which it shared with a coffee trailer, a burrito trailer and a […]
A friend and I attended this annual festival today. I have been to this event in 2014&2015 when it was held at Atlantic Station. This year the event moved to the parking lot of Perimeter Mall in north Atlanta. The event, sponsored by the Atlanta BBQ club, was noticeably smaller this year with 28 teams […]
