Are you referring to the pit room in Houston?

Yup.

That place is good. Glad to hear it’s still up and running.

Its not going anywhere, and actually, they are looking for other locations if I'm not mistaken.

Tried Blanchard’s yesterday. Brisket & green chili corn casserole were great, sausage ok. Will go back soon (only couple minutes from home) and try pulled pork.

Their ribs are pretty darn good too.

Very few Cajuns BBQ anything. They grill stuff and put sauce on it and call it BBQ. I can tolerate Memphis and KC, but NC is garbage. Central Texas is the best.

You have to be more specific about NC BBQ being garbage. In NC their are different types of BBQ. My assumption is that you are talking about Eastern NC BBQ which is all vinegar based. Their BBQ sauce is not actually a sauce at all but more a liquid mixed with Apple Cider Vinegar, Brown Sugar and pepper. Lexington or Western NC BBQ is completely different, this is more tomato based BBQ, this is a more traditional BBQ sauce and is much better than the Eastern Style NC BBQ.

So saying that NC BBQ is garbage is not really telling the entire story, I can agree with you on the Eastern NC BBQ though.

The other thing to remember at NC BBQ is that it is all pulled pork. In NC when you go to a BBQ restaraunt, all you will see for the most part is pulled pork.

My problem with bbq on general in NC (lived here for close to 25 years) is that with few exceptions, it's just a pile of chopped to death (not pulled) meat with little flavor other than a sauce that's just a notch above straight vinegar...east or west. When I've asked for sliced..dry and just flavorless...like I said, there are exceptions, but few and far between...

Mm

Put it on a green egg and you can't miss.

OK now I'm hungry. Best BBQ in the Woodlands, TX, since I'll be there tomorrow?

Some guys that work Spring say CorkScrew BBQ is the best around there

Best kept secret in Lafayette the Mobile convenience store on the corner of Hugh Wallis and Kaliste Saloom. Serves BBQ everyday always good in my opinion. Go early they run out on most days.

Are you talking about the Chevron station next door to Broadus burger?

Smoked a pork butt on my gas grill Saturday. it came out great. Injected scratch marinade with BBQ phosphate the day before. Cut the fat cap off and smoked it at 275* for 10 hours. Most tender and juicy pulled pork I've ever had.

I object to BBQ on a gas grill on a spiritual level

I object to BBQ using any fuel other tnan seasoned hardwood; preferably hickory, pecan or mesquite.

Ehh...I’m not on the level of Pit Room and Feges..yet.

Feges is just downstairs from my office, so I’m both spoiled and getting fat.

Ever been to Virgie’s near Gessner/Clay?
