in search of the WOW brisket

in search of the WOW brisket

Every year Texas Monthly magazine publishes their list of the top BBQ joints in Texas.
http://www.texasmonthly.com/bbq/top50

A couple of years back Snow's BBQ in Lexington got rated the #1 brisket.
http://www.snowsbbq.com/

One of the best pit briskets in Houston is served by Jerry Pizzitola.
http://pizzitolas.com/ourstory.html
One Saturday he and his partner, and two of their pitmasters drove over to Lexington to find out what made Snow's brisket so special.

The Posse has a BBQ map on their site that is useful when traveling around Texas.

I'm guessing they don't get to Houston as often as other areas.

Check out Full Custom Gospel BBQ if you haven't already.

They have got a lot more spots visited for sure.  They gave both Pizzitola's and Gatlin's great reviews.

the secret to all good Q joints is to be there between 11~11:30am
it's all down hill from then on

the same can be said for any Chinese buffet ;)

Amen!  I need to make a trip to Houston I think.
