MAIN FARE:
Brisket is falling apart tender – pot roast consistency. There is a little ‘tang’ detected on the bark, but otherwise good flavor. Rib is very good. It clearly has been ‘ovened’ for a while and consistency suffers a bit. You get the flavor of a sweet basting sauce on the finish. Pittsburg Hot Link – Salty & Smooth. Sausage and Regular Hot Link are standard commercial products.

ATMOSPHERE:
This is an old Donut shop… gutted and rebuilt. Concrete floors, cinder block construction with corrugated tin roof. The decor seems a bit contrived and commercial, but the DPS trooper at the next table swears this is THE place to come get your barbecue. Drive-thru is doing a steady business the whole time we are there. They’re cooking on 2 Souther Pride pits using pecan wood… and doing a pretty good job of it. Laverne comes over and talks with us… she’s part of the Scholl Bros family and seems like good peeps.
OTHER FARE (And they have a BUNCH of "other fare"):
Pintos – Standard, but nicely done… no spices detected but salt, however this is a very good bean.
Cole Slaw – Long strands of cabbage in a light sweet cream sauce. Purple cabbage and carrots add color. Fresh.
Potato Salad – Crunchy taters today.
Cheesy Potato Casserole is great! I love this stuff.
Green Beans – Canned. Skip ’em.
Pecan pie and Fried apple pie are both a very good way to finish a meal.
Potato Salad is ‘mushed’. Sweet up front, then tangy on the finish.
