Yep, same thing happened in Luling.

OK, I'll plead ignorance - what is the difference between a commercial smoker and a pit?
Mueller's is definitely solid. Haven't been there in some years. But I always preferred City Market's ribs.And Louie Mueller in Taylor.
While we're talking Central Texas BBQ, there's a fantastic place in Blanco called Old 300.
(does Blanco count as Central Texas?)
If you’re talking about the one in Giddings I’ll agree wit that. IMO the city market in Giddings is one of the top Q spots I’ve been to. The place is deep in smoke and rich in history. Good stuff. No frills just good Q. Love it.
Franklin is kind of a special case because for whatever reason it's become a "thing".
Also, "hype" is a poor choice of words. For all of his success and attention, I must say every time I've had Franklin's, whether I got it from the trailer, store, or picked up by someone else, it's been outstanding bordering on best ever. Even the best BBQ places have consistency issues from time to time but I've never experienced that with Franklin. He delivers.
Todd, just say NO! Been going since the early 70's and the last 3 times I threw it in the can or gave it to the dogs, not going back anymore.And Louie Mueller in Taylor.
Just don't get the chopped beef sandwich, threw mine out it tasted so bad, but do eat there fairly often and other than that its always been good stuff...While we're talking Central Texas BBQ, there's a fantastic place in Blanco called Old 300.

SHE makes some of the best Q that has ever passed my lips, IMO its better than Franklin!Yeah, the family split and the fire ruined a good thing. His daughter has a place in south Austin that’s supposed to be pretty good.
That's not what I wanted to hear. I really wanted to make a weekend trip over there.Todd, just say NO! Been going since the early 70's and the last 3 times I threw it in the can or gave it to the dogs, not going back anymore.
Gone 3 times in the past 12 mo, in fact special trip thru Taylor and not going any more. I'll give any joint a bad day pass and for LM I gave it 3 strikes and tapped out.That's not what I wanted to hear. I really wanted to make a weekend trip over there.

So, that's five folks eating for just over a hundy. That's not horrible. Whachucomplain'nboutWillis?Nah, that feed three of us, plus one back at the office. And the two extra sandwiches went back to the office, too.

If ya ever get out that way Blackboard BBQ in Sisterdale is top notch also.
Alamo Springs, WOW now there is a burger, great eating, decent prices and the folks who own it will be millionaires if not already. That said its not for everybody. This is a for real Texas burger joint. Unless they have a new cook the old one smoked as he cooked with a can for an ashtray on the cold spot on the grill. I grew up in Texas eating at joints like that and my exp is that is where you get GREAT food, GREAT prices!We drove by it yesterday, but as we were on our way home from Alamo Springs Cafe (highly recommended burgers!), no one was in the mood to eat. Looked interesting though, but I am still concerned as to how expensive it is. This Texas Monthly article isn't showing the greatest of portions for $20/lb...

And their reviews on Yelp are kinda mixed...

Seeing how Boerne's Texas Meat Company most likely went under due to their inflated prices, it will be interesting to see how a place in Sisterdale will fare with the same concerns.
Baker Brothers BBQ in Gonzales has set a new standard by which I will measure BBQ in Texas. It will be tough for anyone to beat their offerings and prices, but I am willing to check out any place that is up to the challenge!
Wow! You drove out here just to eat at Baker Boys? It's my local spot and they're usually pretty good. I can't remember ever getting a bad plate of bbq there.We drove by it yesterday, but as we were on our way home from Alamo Springs Cafe (highly recommended burgers!), no one was in the mood to eat.
