Recommendations for Luling City market, Smitty's, and Kreuz BBQ?

I'm hitting up all 3 tomorrow on a little BBQ road trip. I've been to Kreuz and loved their brisket.
I'm planning on getting brisket at every location. I'm not going to be able to try everything on the menu at each place, so does anyone here have any recommendations for the best things to order?

I've been to City and loved the atmosphere. It's great. Cash only, it may be hard to miss the picture of Johnny Cash on the window informing you of cash only.
You walk into the cook room to order your meat and they place it on paper for you. Tell them if you want crackers, onions, pickles, etc. Then you can get sides separate outside the cook room in the main store.
Brisket was great, ribs were good, sausage was meh. The awesome thing about that place is you can order by the number of pieces. So get a couple pieces of brisket and 1 or 2 ribs to try them. Just tell them how many ribs you want. The sausage is in small ropes, so just get 1 to try, but if you don't want to fill up, it's not worth trying.
I got potato salad and beans, both were good but nothing you must try.
Smitty's and Kreuz are on my list still.

Skip Kreuz and try Blacks.. brisket and beef rib are top notch. Smittys is good too. Luling City Market is not on Blacks level. Blacks is always consistently great. I have Kreuz several tries before I gave up.

Get a ring of sausage at each. Trust me.
Enjoy the fun and get plenty to take home for the rest of the week. Smith’s sometimes has prime rib and that’s really good. I like the ribs at Smittys also.

A handy fact when traveling, Luling city market opens very early in the morning. I've been in and out of there at 8:30am with literally no other customers in there yet.
Mon - Sat: 7:00 am - 6:00 pm
Sun: Closed
I second the shoulder clod at Kreutz and a sausage ring from each to compare. Also the rib from Blacks was damn good.

Thanks for all the recommendations
Here is my review:
City Market
I mistakenly got the lean brisket. I’m not a big fan of it so I’ll give them a pass. The ribs were pretty good. Sausage was awesome.
Kreuz
The moist brisket was very good. The shoulder clod was even better. Jalapeno sausage was spot on too.
Smitty’s
This was my favorite stop. The brisket was slightly better than Kreuz. The prime rib was very good and their ribs were also very good. I really liked the atmosphere inside this place.
All in all, it was a fun experience. All 3 places are good spots that I would visit again.
