BBQ TEXAN STYLE


I can now officially say we had some Texan BBQ. Craig and I have seen this place every time we have come to Pharr. It is within walking distance to our hotel. It is a chain, about 15 of them throughout Texas. What makes it unique is that it is a country store/gas station/BBQ restaurant.

When you walk in they have tables and benches lined up family style with red checkered table cloths, a real down home serve yourself type of place.



You order basically your meat by the half pound, brisket, ribs, chicken, turkey, and sausage. Then if you want a side dish, we chose potato salad, you grab it out of a refridgerator case. They serve it up in a plastic crate with some paper to put down on the table as your plate.


Of course the meal would not be complete without some homestyle BBQ sauce. They had two to choose from. Their regular BBQ and the one made for sissies. We opted for the regular over the sissy style.


But when all was said and done, both Craig and I wiped the BBQ sauce from our mouths, and looked down to see we had eaten everything and boy was it great! This is definitely a place we will return to when we come back to Pharr.
