    The BBQ in Lockhart is the best.

    You're wrong.

    In Schulenburg, on Saturdays (and only on Saturdays) the city market cooks up brisket and chicken that is vastly superior to any other BBQ on planet Earth.

    Respectfully disagree. Smitty's in Lockhart is the tops. At least in my humble opinion.

    How in the HELL is Brother in Law's not on the list for Houston? It is by FAR the best BBQ in town.

    I thought Kreuz was better than Smitty's. I guess I'll go back again and have a redo.

    What I thought was good, but I didn't like the atmosphere was City Market in Luling. the line was out the wazoo and it was disorganized.

    This list is absolute crap without Joe's BBQ in Alvin. Woody's in Centerville should at least get an honorable mention.

    Best time to go is early. get there around 11. The way you know if you got decent brisket is when the brisket is still release smoke after its cut and on the butcher paper.

    Ping us when you go, maybe we'll get a central texas clutchfans bbq meeting.

    Hmmm..........talk about subjective. I would consider both of those places as marginal to so-so.

    Somebody mentioned the Salt Lick, and that made the "honorable mention" list.

    I LOVE the Texas Monthly BBQ editions. Sure, we don't always agree with the rankings, but they always give me some place new to want to try.

    The Salt Lick was probably the best I've had.

    I want to try the one in Schulenburg though.
