This place has spent far too much money on the renovation of the property to have even a remote chance of decent food. Make no mistake - Phil's will suck. I'm all in for the Shagging though.
In the meantime,
Luling City Market
Pizzitola's
Thelma's
My backyard, now equipped with a Big Green Egg.
you're thinking of something else. Thelma's is inside the loop. Pierson's is in "Acres Homes" although, the foodies have taken to saying it's in "Oak Forest"...
funny how that's worked out...
anyway...
so, uh.... where are we watching baseball? Pierson's to The Usual (last year's spot) is less than 7 miles straight down TC Jester...
the usual - "htown shaggy's unofficial/official lesbian-dominant, with an surprisingly amazing beer selection, hangout"
im in if this happens.
geezus, foodies are afraid of darkies?? you really post that kinda shit? do you believe it.
give it a rest ldogg
he's kinda right in this case. they know what they're doing. it's not so much the foodies, but the foodie followers who won't go to "Acres Homes" but will go to "Oak Forest" for good BBQ...
anywho... I'M ON A BAOT! mon - wed this week, so I couldn't hook it up until, say, Thursday at best... i assume we'll still be playing when the weekend comes.
gotcha...
i've never been to thelmas or drexlers (which i hear Suuuuuuuxks)... both are inside the loop. I've sat a Goode Co and had a beer, but no Q.
So, uh, back to Piersons and The Usual... Game 1 of the Super is 5p Saturday... what's the deal? (ok, i should probably go check the relevant forum).
I can confirm drexler's sucked. bad. i think it closed. Goode Co is no good for brisket, ribs, or sausage. However, if you want chicken (not racist), and potato salad it is pretty damn hard to beat theirs. I will be heading out of Houston to go to the games this weekend so i won't be able to make any BBQ get togethers in Acres Homes, but i certainly would like to go some time.
I volunteer to be part of the flotilla that ventures to the 'cue joint to safely escort the meat back to the usual.
the meat's not welcomed at the usual
this is shaping up nicely... i'm recruiting ldogg as well...
i'm guessing the best way to do this is either:
1. just buy X number of 3 meat plates, or
2. buy meat by the pound... (which I think has a high potential for over-purchase.)
what says the shag? do we need to move this to the bball board?
move the discussion to either the Baseball board or to Nastys...
I'd say buy the meat by the pound....
I should be good to go on Saturday as I've got to do family photos for the wife on account of the baby turning 6 months old... so then I'll come home to watch the World Cup and earn my way into game watching..
Not sure if I can make it. I get in town late Friday night, and then early morning drinking watching the World Cup (location has yet to be decided if anyone has ideas for meeting up).
opening today according to their facebook page and twitter. who ever braves it first, be sure to post.
brownie looks good... rest looks like shit... how'd it taste?
I'm going in with an open mind expecting it to be decent, but not today. I just ate a big ass chicken fried steak at Hickory Hollow.
surely, the food cant be as bad as those pictures, right?
Like watching scrambled cable food pron.

this is what the guy told me:I went there with 3 other friends (all foodies). We all agreed the fatty brisket was excellent, but you have to ask for it. See for yourself
Funny you say that. We were going to go to Lankford's, but no one had cash on them but me. The CFS is Hickory Hollow isn't bad.
here now with shaggesters. at least they have Summer pils on tap. verdict to come later.
Kaiser soze got just one rib in his two meat combo plate. A rubbery one at that. Not looking good so far.
"I think I've had a better mcrib" has been thrown out
boiled and drenched in prego sauceOriginally Posted by Mack Tripper
This is a shocking development.
Ask if they use a real smoker, or a gas unit
