      @@pizza_lovers TBF, it's probably better than BBQ is in most other places. It's very much mid tier for the area though. It's a fantastic location though in Driftwood, Tx. There are much better places to get BBQ in Austin. My favorite is Stile's Switch and Rudy's. Now people will balk at Rudy's because "iTs a ChAiN" but it's good consistent bbq.

      It SEEMS like a great idea. Between southern soul food, BBQ, and Mexican food someone could open a dozen restaurants and make a fuckin' killing. I have to assume that the reason nobody has done that yet is that the ingredients to make real authentic versions of those foods must be hard to source in the UK. Because let's face it, making authentic BBQ isn't exactly rocket science. It takes time and it takes attention to detail but there's nothing stopping people in the UK from doing it. It's not the Texas air that makes our brisket so good, it's ingredients and it's technique. Technique can be learned. So that leave ingredients. That's my hypothesis right now, it must be an ingredients issue.

      @@chriswhinery925 that combined with the brits actually loving "bland/er" foods... idk tho there have been episodes where they went to this BBQ restaurant in the UK opened by an american guy from some BBQ state... they said the food was good but i remember 2 times they went in on diff episodes and it was empty both times. i think the brits dont stuff their faces and are perfectly okay with paying more money for less food if to them they enjoyed the meal, got a decent deal, or also the healthy difference in our cultures. i think brits just feel like if they go to an "american" restaurant it will cost more there maybe because we just eat more food so it must cost the same for more food concept. could be the "southern cuisine" is just throw a stick of butter on everything and to the brits they just dont like it idk...
      theres also like the whole city vs outskirts ppl vibe like city ppl want think fast they want meals quick cheap on the go they probably cook to save money etc... and the more rural ppl like what they like and are super like we eat bangers and mash type so in theory opening up a restaurant would "kill" but i feel like it just never works out in reality... otherwise you would see it i guess, i mean mcdonalds really is the king of "adaptibiliy" while remaining true to its core and almost the same worldwide and EVERYONE loves and knows it lol

      For context and those outsiders curious, im eastern Washington. Peh-cuhn is very commonly stated here. Pee-CAN is very common is seems if you're bordering the ocean side of the state. Eastern WA has a more notable, though still minor contextually, Asiatic and western European population whereas we tend to have more Eastern European/Mexican/South American influences.

      I have theory that I hold true to my heart as fact: butter goes with everything, no dish or food would be corrupted by butter. Truffle, honey, mustard, bbq, mint, rose petals, salt, pepper in all its variations cayenne, black ect, parsley, bakon bits, nuts, hot sauce, lemon, all make great butter additives, herbs, seeds, meats, fish, vegetables, fruits, fungi - sweet, salty, sour/acidic, hot/spicy, umami, IT DOESNT MATTER!
      And the foods, seriously name one dish, other than maybe some baked goods that wouldn't rise, with butter added. Despite the fact butter is one of the main ingredients in most baking recipes its just maybe adding too much of a good thing is a bad thing, as is the case with all of the things.
      Hell even drinks could get some butter. Im going to cream my next cup of coffee with melted salted butter. It makes so much sense I dont know why I havent tried it yet. Coffee, salted, is an immediate upgrade and cream/dairy is a staple of its accompaniments, so why not try a more fattier source of dairy/cream especially if its on a particularly acidic roast/blend. Its a no brainer.

    I lived in Texas for forty years, before becoming disabled and having to move back East. I can say these things: Everything really IS big in Texas, the food, ESPECIALLY Barbecue and Tex-Mex, is FANTASTIC, the people are largely VERY big-hearted and friendly, and there's no place else quite like Whataburger. Oh, and even if you're not a country boy/girl at heart, the big rodeos are STILL a lot of fun.
    If you fellas go back to Texas some day, you should Jolly well go to the Texas State Fair in Dallas, attend the associated Grambling football game (ABSOLUTELY worth attending for the bands' halftime show alone), and be sure to visit Dallas's downtown Dallas World Aquarium and suburban Addison's Cavanaugh Flight Museum, including flight worthy examples of the Kittyhawk and Martlet fighter planes you Brits got from us in WWII via Lend-Lease and an example of the Heinkel He-111 that would have understandably terrorized your grandparents by dropping bombs on Ye Olde London.
    I promise, Dallas is absolutely worth a visit in its own right, and there's a LOT more to do than I even touched on.

Truthfully, of all my years in Texas it is the grandest in every sense of the word. I recently went to the Alamo (again), after not having been since I was a child. The heroism that was shown there I think truly embodies texas in everything Texans do. Heart and soul belongs in everything, from the great food, to the air shows, and more. Thanks for reminding me about all the things Texas, and Texans stand for. I wish you well!

    I had a tomahawk steak once and it is an incredible experience. The flavor is so rich and it cuts like butter. I got two lunches out of the leftovers so the expense was justified. The bone would be great roasted for the marrow or to make beef stock. So believe them that it was an amazing experience.
