Quoted message said:The Texas idealism produces extraordinary barbecue fealty. Barbecue: A
Texas Love Story, a charming new documentary, captures the cultlike
nature of it, cruising with the University of Texas student barbecue
club and worshipping at the New Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church
in
Huntsville, whose barbecue side business is so beloved it has earned
the nickname "Church of the Holy BBQ."
Many regulars in houston.eats have, for years, raved about the Mount
Zion BBQ place in Huntsville. Never been there, but have always wanted
to make the trip to try their legendary ribs.
Have also always wanted to trek out west to try the BBQ in Lockhart,
Llano, and other places, as I've heard it's the best you can find
anywhere.
Quoted message said:Here's the amazing thing about Texas
barbecue. Even a run-of-the-mill place around here is better than the
best barbecue anywhere else.
Yep. That about sums it up.
Great article. Thanks for posting it!
