New Yorker Confirms What Texans Know


(thanks to Todd Z for the link)

Here's an article from Calvin Trillin in the New Yorker. It's a bit of a behind-the-story look at this past summer's Texas Monthly Top 50 BBQ Joints in TX article where Snow's was named the winner.

It's a good read and it makes me really wish I had some good BBQ in SF.

I do like this bit from the column:

Lexington, a trading town of twelve hundred people in Lee County, is only about fifty miles from Austin, where Texas Monthly is published, and Texans think nothing of driving that far for lunch-- particularly if the lunch consists of brisket that has been subjected to slow heat since the early hours of the morning.

Mmmm brisket

We got it in Mountain View. Uncle Franks BBQ rocks! You need to come down and eat some with us. Of course, its even better that it's in the back of a great dive bar. Boiler Maker or your Manhattan chaser.
