    As a European by birth who moved to Texas almost a decade ago I can confirm. Texas BBQ is absolutely phenomenal and it blows away every BBQ imitation I had back home in Europe. Like it's not even close, it's like an adult man beating up a toddler, that's how big the difference is. And the crazy thing is that there are another 3 or 4 American styles of BBQ that are just as good as Texan BBQ. And then there's South American BBQ, such as Brazilian BBQ. Europe is so far behind in the BBQ game it's not even funny.

      Very true, a friend if mine from Chicago visited me one summer. I smoked a brisket and some chicken, along with some polish sausages.
      After some hours, he told me I had forgotten to buy bbq sauce. I told him I happened to have a bottle of kraft bbq sauce that was about 2 years old, collecting dust.
      He couldn't get over the idea that we don't consider sauce a part of the bbq process, or, at least I don't.
      I asked him if he grilled his hot dogs already smothered in musterd? No. Ok do you grill your hamburger patties slathered in mayo? No, of course not. Why not? Because its gross, those are condiments. I said, Exactly. That's why Texas bbq is cooked by smoking, and served with sauce, on the side. Its a condiment.
      Folks that slather bbq sauce on the meat while it cooks are trying to hide a nasty flavor in the meat. In Texas, we want you to taste the flavor and juicyness of the meat, then if you want, dip it in sauce. You'll also be asked to sit at the kids table.

    Brisket has a very interesting story. Brisket comes from the lower chest of the cattle and as such is a very dense and hard muscle and was considered a 'throw away' cut because no one could cook it. Well the ranch-hands/cowboys that tended the herds asked the owners if they could have it and they discovered that if you cooked it at a very low heat (ie smoke cooking) over a long period of time the fat would render and soften the meat.

    Texan here, y'all hit on one of my favorite things about Texas bbq that I hadn't even thought of: how humble it is. You see a line of people who have been standing there for 4 hours before opening waiting to get in and get the best food you've ever eaten in your life served to you on paper plates and styrofoam cups on the side of the highway, and not a single complaint can be heard about any of it. There's no atmosphere you feel like you have to live up to, it's just good food and good times

      they did it just right too. Barbecue in America is food that's supposed to take an entire afternoon to eat, it's as much an excuse to hang out with your friends as it is to eat a meal. It probably looks weird to a lot of europeans, to just get a huge platter of food and then just go at it with your hands... but yeah, that's kind of the point. There's no ceremony, there's no etiquette, it's just you, the food and the company for a couple hours

      Yeah, Georgia ain't much different, though we tend to favor soul food more than BBQ. You ever come to GA, check out Pralines (Kinda like pecan cookies), Divinity (A pecan meringue dessert), and some soul food, especially nice greens that have been slow cooked in leftover meats, typically a bit of pork fat, my favorite are the mustard greens, though they smell awful, their taste is what matters really.

      If you go to Austin, you could spend a full day just eating BBQ, they have some top Notch places there, Franklin's BBQ, LaBBQ just to name a few. Austin is a food mecca for everything. Black's is pretty good as well, though Franklin's is often regarded as the Best BBQ in the US, but they have a 4 to 5 hour wait to eat there. So Terry Black's is a close second.

      Austin is a unique place, lots to see there, very diverse with food and culture as well. They have a great Food Truck section with several food trucks parked in one place. If you want some more fantastic BBQ, you can drive couple hours from Austin to a town called Lockhart, Tx, they are also very well known for BBQ, worth the extra trip, Imo.
      I would avoid going to 6th St, if that is on your itinerary, it is mainly for the younger college age kids, and has kind of gone downhill with crime. It is mainly bars, but Austin has a thriving nightlife, so no shortage there if that is your kind of thing, there are plenty of places for entertainment.
      Lastly, welcome to Texas, I hope you enjoy your stay here🙂

    • @Allen-hg2hu
      @Allen-hg2hu 6 місяців тому

      ​​@@JennyvdKHonestly, Franklin's while it is fantastic, is not worth the wait. Most people want the "experience", so the waiting is part of that for them, but If I had to wait 5 hours to eat somewhere, I would convince myself pretty quickly it was the best I ever had also. The locals, don't really eat there. And also avoid "Dickeys" brand BBQ, that is more of a fast food equivalent BBQ in Texas, and is not indicative of True Texas BBQ.
