    • Spare Rib: More smoke flavor; the entire rib pulled off the bone; subtle spice in the rub. Seems a little tough at first, but it gets better & better. Mmmmm… its up there!
    • Atmosphere: Busy, busy; jumpin’ for mid-afternoon. In the TCU area – I’ll wager that this place is packed with college kids when school is in session. This is a bar + restaurant… they have a big-ass plate of fries & onions. Their old place burned down.
    • Sauce: Heavier, with sweetness – touch of horseradish? I like it.
    • Sides: Good, but not great
    • Sausage: Casing melts into the meat, but its nothing special.
    • Brisket: Cut at a diagonal; Partly with the grain. Velvet crust; oh, yeah… fatty crust.
