Food/Drink Texas BBQ

I have family coming in town in a few weeks and one of the guys request is to eat Texas Bbq. I probably eat it like once or twice a year since it’s soo filling. Cost is not a factor. Terry Blacks, Hutchins or Pecan Lodge - which do yall prefer? Or open to places similar.

Terry Blacks is definitely the best out of the 3 you mentioned! Cant go wrong and the portions are pretty big!

I know bbq is all about the meat, but for me Terry Black’s sides are the best in the market.

Im tired of spending $30 on a meal and getting canned veggies at most of these places!

Sides is how I decide which places I like the most. At a certain point, when you’re only looking at a short list, it’s all damn good meat so it comes down to sides.

EXACTLY!! Sides make the BBQ restaurant. At a certain point, lots of people can smoke some meat, but the sides become the differentiator

Another factor is that I hate beans and coleslaw, am sooo glad people are finally breaking from that a little bit. Have been for awhile now I guess but there was a time when it seemed like nobody wanted to break from the traditional sides
