DR vixmom, keep us posted on the van accident. I am very curious to know what was going on with the driver. Was it a robbery get away? out of control van? health emergency? What a nightmare!

There have been rumors floating around that the driver had a heart attack, but no official word

Such a terrible tragedy. So sad for the deceased and the families of the deceased, especially. And hoping the injured people in the nail salon make good recoveries.

About 10 years ago, I was asked to coauthor a book on Texas barbecue. Driving across the state to eat a barbecue places great, small, known and unknown was a great adventure. Learned a lot. Ate way too much. Met some wonderful people. Got some amazing photos. And the book came out fairly well, if'n I do say so.

I shall leave for the reading a bit after two p.m.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #39 on:** June 29, 2024, 05:58:35 AM »

I don't think our reading will take three hours......92 pages.....but that includes the scene breakdown and a page of photos for every scene.....and some scenes end with just a few lines on the last page.

Excited for you, DR Jrand73!

How horrific, DR vixmom.

So best barbecue? I remember some beef ribs at Killen's in Pearland that were tender, juicy and Jurassic in size. Topped with an espresso barbecue sauce, they were mind-bogglingly good.

That same day I tasted barbecue crabs for the first time. That's what they're called, though they're really fried. But they were outstanding.

I have a hard copy, but now it is on my Kindle, as well. Your royalty check should be arriving post-haste.

Probably not. Haven't had one in a couple of years.

I didn't sleep all that well, but better than some nights. One problem I have is that I like to lie down and turn my face right. Except that causes pain. So I have to face left. After two months of this I still haven't retrained myself to do that.

I grew up in Greenville SC, and it was the home of a "local" franchise (a few cities in South and North Carolina, IIRC) called "Little Pigs of America". Their BBQ was most excellent. Their sauce was mustard based (a Carolinas quirk) and also most excellent. The pork was always chopped really fine rather than pulled. Nice chunks but small ones.

Have had other BBQ in other cities...some very good, some not...but I do not recall the name of the places.

Locally, here in the town of Johnston SC in the CSRA, there is a lot of BBQ on various menus. None sing out to me, thus far, but they are good.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #49 on:** June 29, 2024, 06:13:30 AM »

Every article I have read on the best BBQ in the Carolinas place the eateries in cities quite a distance from where I am. So...

Saturday at last.

Nothing special planned for today.

Live and let live.

I was rearranging some books and was glancing through that just yesterday!
Amazing cosmic coincidence, or what???

What a grotesque and horrible accident, DR vixmom.

I loved Dallas BBQ, too.

When co-workers and I moved from L.A. to Danbury in 1989, we went into the city a lot that first year and enjoyed a lot of exploring and casual eating. One of our earliest meals was in the one at 8th Street and University Place - if I'm remembering that location right. I think so. Later, I ate at the one farther east on 8th St. a few times. It was there for a long time, but it looks like it's gone now. I also remember seeing one on West 72nd St. next to the Dakota. Looks like they're still around, but in none of those earlier locations.

We have your book. The book came out much more than fairly well!

Anyhoo, I've loved many kinds of BBQ, in many places. I couldn't name a single favorite, but Texas BBQ in general would be my druthers. Or, like Og, do I just love the one I'm near?

There's one here I was recently introduced to when someone gave me a couple of sample bites of their brisket that was to die for, but I haven't eaten there yet:
