Smitty's in Lockhart, Texas

Our first stop on July 26 was Smitty's in Lockhart. It has been ranked tops by Texas Monthly, among others. Shows what they know. First off, no ribs except on weekends. Second, no sauce. Third, no forks! Yup, all you get is a plastic knife and you're supposed to eat with your fingers or wrap it in bread. The sliced beef was tough and chewy and the sausage was little more than grease in a casing. The porkchop was tasty and tender and an easy highlight.
