RG, maybe I am 2dum, but I didn't read where those pics of that que were from. I would venture to guess that you're not yet in Texas. I'm just guessing this because of the elegant plastic placemat/plate. In Texas, our everyday dinner plate is just brown butcher paper. If it is a formal dinner, we use white butcher paper. That chopped beef and sausage does look good.
Do you have an idea of your itinerary in Texas? What bbq joints are you thinking of hitting? Are you going to be anywhere close to Houston? By the way,like muebe said, anywhere within 200 miles is close in Texas.
