Weird that you left brisket off on purpose. Texas BBQ starts with beef. The fact that brisket wasn't mention first, second, or third means that it's just another Baton Rouge barbecue attempt. It's not weird. I was an insult.
Wait, you’re upset and writing off a bbq place because a write up in some local paper didnt list brisket first.
Hahahahaha. What a fricking loser you are.

Smokers look legit. Owners obviously committed to investing time and money. I like everything on the menu regardless of whether it's supposed to be TX BBQ or not.
I have a feeling it's going to be good unless they have trouble staffing and managing.

This is the FDB. Post a pic of a salt shaker. We will argue over it for a week.
Baton Rouge hasn't had legit Texas barbecue since Luther's closed. I look forward to someone changing my mind.

I was going to say the opposite. I wish they would have used better photos for their menu. Their stuff on their Facebook page looks great. The stuff in the photos they chose just looks like like plain run of the mill bbq.

Here’s my review.
I got in line right at 11:00. I did not get to order until 12:20. The line was very slow and I couldn’t figure it out until I got to the front.
You order to a kid at the register. The meat cutter listens and weighs meat on the scale. The kid hits a button and locks in the weight to charge you. If the kid hits the button too early or too late, he has to reweigh the meat. Your tray is then hen sent down the line for sides and sauce. It is a strange serving line and I hope they will fix it.
I ordered ribs, brisket and jalapeño sausage with sides of coleslaw and beans. The brisket was amazing and I like the sauce. The ribs were good but not great. They were cooked well-not too much to where they fall of the bone but some chew. Just not much flavor. All served with bread, pickles, and pickled onions.
Beans were kinda weak, tbh. The coleslaw was just fine.
I’d rate it a 7/10 because of the line and the beans. Hope they succeed and get the bugs worked out.

Place in Dallas is similar, you tell them what you want and how much they weigh and charge you after. Then you move down an assembly line adding to your tray until you get to the cashier.

I think this would better than weighing while you order.

Hopefully they learn a lot from the soft opening (since that’s really the point of having one). It looks like thier grand opening is set for the 22nd so that gives them time to work some things out.
I hope they do well, because we definitely need some good bbq around here

Should limit to Baton Rouge residents only
Tell St. George to get their own
That’s how all Texas ones price it out
I wonder how much platter they advertising costs - has to be over $100

That's actually what it costs. Looks like a good deal.

Jalapeño sausage was phenomenal

The burnt ends were really good. Liked the brisket and chicken. Ribs were OK. To be honest, the best thing I got was the pecan pie. That was excellent- I dunno if they made it in house or had a small bakery do it.
I’ll be back.
I’ll be back.

So you enjoyed the Sam’s container potato salad?
