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

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.
