Sampled about 12:15

This was another Texas Monthly Top 50 joint Scott had never sampled, though I have had them several times at Texas Monthly and other BBQ fests. This is your usual cafeteria style BBQ joint where you cue up for que and go down the line adding sides etc.  I grabbed my usual 3 meat plate of sliced brisket, ribs, and jalapeno cheese sausage and added some mac and cheese and broccoli rice. 

Both the brisket and ribs were tender and moist but had no smoke flavor.  The sausage had a great kick, the spiciest I had all day, and was a definite highlight.  It would have killed Scott.  Sides were average.
