Yo, I just talked to my butcher friend here in MF about beef ribs and I thought about ya. Give him a week's notice, 2 is better, and he can get you really good ones if you're ever interested in cooking at home. The Old Ingram Grocery in Ingram/Hunt and Harvest House in Johnson City are my other spots for fun stuff. You should try grilling some sweetbreads, so delicious. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Hill-Country-Fine-Meats/155303594506589
Nice, I appreciate it. Having butcher friends is the way to go. Tell me what time yours are coming off the smoker and I'll make the drive out that way. I loved making bread and pizza on my big green egg but unfortunately I just sold it last month when I downsized even further, so not sure when I'll be firing up a grill/smoker. In the past 2 years I've gone from living in 2500 sq foot on lake travis, to living in approx 70 sq ft in my Ford Transit i'm building out all around the lake. No room for a big grill in that small space although I have thought about putting a small BGE on a slide out drawer coming out of the back. For now I guess I'll have to just keep sampling beef ribs at all these great BBQ places popping up all over the state.
lol. what? care to explain? I am no bbq snob but I love feges. also, texas monthly could have put out a map that was slightly more useful. like at least show where the damn major highways are. sheesh.
The Brisket is OK, but the rest of that crap is awful. All of the sides are drenched in oil, the chicken and sausage are sub par, and the stuff is wayyyy overpriced. Its easy to get away with that pricing in Greenway, because its a b**** to get out of the building for lunch. Can't wait until we move over to the old Conoco Philips property.
Wait...what? A1? Pierce the meat? Did you learn to cook at Golden Corral? Does Appleby's just make the best steak for you? Please tell me that in a thread that's titled "BBQ Snob" you're kidding about using A1 and piercing meat before you cook it. This is just nuts. I get it if it's just not your flavor but there's no way Feges is worse than Papas or Dickey's.
