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.

Been to both the Pit Room and Witt Pit recently.

Pit room was awesome on my visit. Got the ribs and tasted the brisket from a coworker. Best area BBQ I've eaten.

Witt Pit is closer to my hood. They were out of the ribs when we went, so I ate the brisket. It was good, but a tad salty. Green beans seemed very salty.

Still liked it better than some of the other area BBQ I've had. If they'd tone down slightly on the sodium (and I do tend to like my BBQ on the salty side), they would be even better.

I like the nice outdoor, quieter setting of Witt Pit, but liked Pit Room food a bit more.
