Been to The Pit Room twice now and loved it both times. In my opinion, their BBQ was awesome and the other stuff (Tacos, chili, etc.) was great as well.

By no means do I consider myself a BBQ connoisseur or foodie in general, but I thought the Pit Room was fantastic, especially for the location. Much better than the Lockhart BBQ I've had.

While I generally agree with offshoreangler and often support his opinions, I personally wouldn't go so far to write off Killen's entirely yet. Granted, I've only been to Killen's once. However, for now, given the location of the Pit Room, the barrier to entry is much lower, and I'm immensely more likely to frequent the Pit Room than Killens.

Pit Room has been great every time I've gone. Ribs cooked great, jalapeño cheddar sausage is fantastic and the brisket can definitely hang with Killens, Pecan Lodge, La Barbecue. I also dig their pickle/jalapeño/pickled garlic bar.

I did do Killens last week on a Tuesday -- short line and everything was killer, brisket, ribs and pork belly.



Anyone been to Pinkerton's on Airline? Think it just opened up. Guy my age started it up, haven't heard much about the grub.
