Are you insinuating that DeBoar is gay?

Hmmm...would definitely explain a lot.

Incorrect.

Someone brought up Kosher. I addressed it and indicated the difference as it pertains to this thread.

Whether or not you agree is your prerogative.

That you think *you* have any legitimate capacity to pass judgment on any post of mine is laughable.

a brisket shawarma sandwich… NGL, this sounds like the best invention since algebra.


We’ve got a hole in the wall place, MedMex, that’s outstanding. They’ve got fresh lengua(cow tongue) pita wraps & tacos, carnitas, menudo, and mole everyday. Shawarma off the spit to die for. Maternal side is Lebanese Christian and father is Mexican.

A restaurant that offers Halal options? Not even the least bit concerning.


I think the issue you are glossing over is assimilation appears to be a one way street. It is local and regional culture having to adapt to outsiders instead of outsiders adapting to the local culture.. it’s no different than hundreds of thousands of people moving into Louisiana and expecting things like traditional gumbo to be modified to their liking. It says a lot about the person to demand locals give up and modify their culture so that you can simultaneously maintain yours.

JFC you are going to vomit after all this spin. You are in such a race to get to SFP pace, that you should probably just put more thought in your arguments the first time.

Of course I do. I consider it my duty to help people make more rational arguments, and to call out dumb ones. You're welcome.

Is opening up a BBQ joint in TX not an example of assimilating to local culture?

It always amazes how the low IQ among us truly believe they are the smartest.

Not when every bbq joint has to take on the additional costs of Halal.

Halal bbq is not Texas culture. Do you think you’ll find any non Halal bbq options if millions of Texans flooded into India?

It is very easy to be in the upper echelon of intelligence on this board. If you disagree...well I'm sorry I got some news for you....

Why does every BBQ joint have to do this?

Go to Cajun Kosher deli


Is this run by a guy named....Schlomo Thibodaux? We have borscht and a 24 hour (excluding saturday) bait shop!

Instead of a ball of rice or potato salad served on top of some gumbo, a matzah ball might work.

Really? You would Know if you are using coriander? It's in a lot of BBQ rubs along with the salt, pepper, cumin,brown sugar . You'll find a lot of it in Texas spice rubs.....and in dry rub mixtures like Rendezvous rub for pork......it's in a lot of spice rubs.

The bay leaf. I'll grant you that but only because the flavoring is so subtle as to be nonexistent.

So we've established that you are at least partially FOS or just engaging in gratuitous hyperbole.

Texas BBQ is getting a Halal Makeover

quote:

At least a dozen barbecue spots now serve halal meats, including Yearby’s Barbecue & Waterice, run by Black Muslim couple CJ and Sabrina Henley,
A dozen restaurants doesn’t equal “Texas BBQ”. Epitome of panicans.

And how dare anyone operate their business in line with their religious guidelines! Bake the cake!… oh wait.

Muslims are clearly making an effort to dominate what they think is a major symbol of Americanism - Texas.


They are not having to make an effort. The Pubs in Texas, especially Greg Abbott, recruited and welcomed them. So they came.

Our own Constitution provided the opening for this to happen. And the recent SCOTUS ruling on birthright citizenship is only going to accelerate it. Abbot can't legally enforce a "no muslims in Texas" policy.


Hate to break it to you, but Muslims were brought to America by slave owners well before America was even a country.

Then Henry Ford brought a bunch more of them over to work in his automobile manufacturing plants. Hence, Dearborn.

Many of those here today have been here for multiple generations.

And stop defending Greg Abbott. He is guilty.
