I’ll drop even lower on the BBQ hierarchy…if you haven’t had the smoked half chicken from the Pit Room you need to try it…incredible.

Truth, Pinkerton’s, Pit Room are all close to each other in terms of quality…splitting hairs.

I live within a 3 minute drive of Truth BBQ but rarely find myself there, mostly because the lines are stupid. I think Truth has the best sides.

Pinkerton’s has the best actual bbq of the three for me…their sides could be better…at least at the original location…haven’t been to the new one in the Montrose yet. If you want pork ribs, this is the place for you.

Pit Room has a more Tex Mex slant…get the tacos here, or sub the white bread you get with any 1/2/3 meat plate for tortillas. Original location is in Montrose, it’s tiny…the Memorial location is just as good and has an expanded menu…best god damn club sandwich in the city.

My son has ridden in NRG…couldn’t convince my daughter.

To get selected to ride before the concert you have to enter a lottery…and either know someone on the committee who has pull or get really lucky.

If you get picked to ride in the stadium, you don’t get a choice of what day, they tell you not to practice…which even if you do doesn’t matter anyway because the dipshits who put your kids on the animal usually don’t get them in a good centered position and they usually end up falling off, and lastly, if your kid is crying or refuses to get on they get skipped and don’t get another chance.

But as someone else said you can have your kid ride on the fairgrounds outside NRG with much less pressure.

Well that’s your problem right there…the food is mid to begin with and was always just a place for the gram.
If the traffic gets any worse at the I-10/I-45 interchange downtown I’m going to close up shop too.
Bollo? Kiran’s?

You must be fricking high.
Pinkerton’s has a spot in San Antonio.

I know this isn’t bbq…but if I’m ever in Austin, I absolutely go out of my way to make sure I eat at Este.
The older child went to the same school my kids do…incredibly sad.
Derian Hatcher should wreck Benn’s shite for his half assed captaincy the last few years.
It’s entirely up to Dan Friedkin at this point. Shake a little of that Gulf States Toyota money loose Dan.

If you’re in Texas the Central Market/HEB brand are great too.

Fajita comes from the word faja which means strips in Spanish…fajita means little strips.

Arrachera is the word for skirt steak.

My brother in Christ…boiled a few weeks ago, HEB on Washington was fine…field run but had good size.

There are plenty of Jones Act tankers out there…they just have ridiculous day rates.
I’m well aware baw…I’ve been going to Rodeo for over 20 years.
I’m going to see the Red Clay Strays tonight…I’ll report my findings.
I mean Shawn has a point…the guy had Hegseth, Patel, Gabbard, and Trump himself all on the podcast on the run up to the 2024 election, and they all basically lied directly to his face.

Now, that’s a Shawn problem for believing anything anyone in the Federal government says, but I think he’s finally come to the realization that a lot of the shite the he fought for was a complete lie, and that the current administration cares more about protecting the institution than holding anything or anyone accountable for the waste, fraud and abuse going on in this country.

We literally have aligned ourselves with the fricking head of Al Qeada in Syria masquerading as the president and are still sending 87 million dollars a month to the Taliban.
Please…HRL made plenty of money…Lyondell had the place “for sale”’ nearly a decade.

Lyondell wants nothing to do with things that aren’t plastics or chemicals.

If it was such a drain on their bottom line they would have said yes when Motiva offered to buy it.
