  1. No its not. Again, eat more places. Their cue doesnt hold a candle to the stuff that has popped up over the last 4-5 years. And i can DoorDash Truth BBQ, as its less that a mile from my house. Pinkertons is just over a mile. Truth has always been better than Snows
  2. Lol at purist gatekeeping. Look, snows was the last great bastion of the old school joints. But time has moved forward and soon people will move on. It was good in its time. But to think its one of the best cue spots in the world is laughable. The similarities to the craft beer/coffee/insert cuisine here/ revolutions are obvious. Snows is Shiner circa 2009. But hey, if you enjoy waiting 5-6 hours for something that is worse than I can doordash in 20 min, you do you
  3. Same with Dickies. Guess I cant hate on it. It has 318 locations so it must work for some!
  4. I sat next to Tootsie for a whole day at Camp Brisket last January (or was it two jans ago?). Talked with her off and on for almost 9 hours. She is great. She makes damn good bbq. She is an icon but other places make better bbq than her now. Ive been to almost every bbq spot on every TM top 50 list since its inception. Anyone that thinks she is one of the current top 10 bbq joints in the state just hasnt eaten enough bbq. I get it, people drove for hours and waited 7-8 hours in line and dont wanna say its just solid-level cue after putting in all that work. But it really isnt worth any of that. Hell, its not worth driving more than 15 minutes if you live in austin, with all the choices you have locally. Sure, Alamo stadium is arguably the most storied stadium in Texas HS football. But lol at thinking its one of the 10 best to catch a game at in 2025
  5. Lavaca bbq and bneck and neck imo. Also, lavaca has two locations since last summer edit, sorry not redbird, meant Burnt bean
  6. Damn, great call! also, im glad Snows got the fuck outta there. Im shocked it even made the top 50, tbh
  7. Ive been to all of them minus smoak, sabar, jennings, bredyns, yearbys and redbird https://www.texasmonthly.com/interactive/top-50-bbq-2025/
  8. None of these gonna be on it https://www.texasmonthly.com/bbq/best-texas-bbq-honorable-mentions/ odd that Tejas isnt top 50
  9. The 10 commandments shit is fucking so dumb. At this point, I dont know how anyone can be a christian anymore
  10. Our country pre-2016 is never coming back. Materialism, apathy, lack of morality, consumerism, and misinformation has been chugging along for most of my lifetime, getting more over the top year by year. That aint turning around. Most of this country doesnt give a fuck about conservation, their neighbors, or the rest of the world. All they care about is having more money to spend and having cheap diversions to distract from the shit show that is their day to day life. Especially with the increases in technology, AI, connectivity, and the worsening of food and sedentary lifestyles… to think that one day we will be like 9/12/2001? Lolol the only way that is happening is if there is a WW3
  11. Houston is the 2nd most-humid city in the country. Any place but New Orleans is better
  12. Stayed at the JW resort this weekend. Always a good time for the kids Did Soluna (its the sister restaurant to Rosarios, and much better), La Fonda on Main (we always try to go here once a trip), DarkSide Pizza (if you havent seen or heard of this one, look it up. Its insane. Best themed restaurant in Texas), Alamo Springs Cafe (did this before we saw the bats at Old Tunnel State Park. The Cover burger was awesome but everything else was trash), had breakfast at La Panaderia (this gonna be the next big restaurant to franchise outta SA, its awesome every time), and had lunch at Tycoon Flats (great greasy spoon). We try to visit at least once a year and every time we talk about moving from Houston. SA is just a better city in most respects. Little to no traffic, no humidity (we sat outside when it was 91 degrees and it felt like 80 degrees in Houston), great tacos, laid back feel, best childrens museum in Texas, Six Flags, Hurricane Harbor, SeaWorld, Zoo, Riverwalk, Pearl, <30 min from Castroville, Seguin, NB, and 2.5 hrs from a pretty solid beach. The only reason we havent moved already is because im fairly convinced CenTex is gonna run outta water by 2030
  13. Top 3 burger in houston
  14. Saga was fucking awesome
  15. Pre season number 1 to missing the post season has that ever happened?

  17. The Smokehouse, San Antonio
  18. Looks like THC is toast

  21. We have two legit pitchers and a buncha average motherfuckers in the pen
