Lets do a worse of thread.

I figure we all have been there, eat something you would think that you are wise enough to know better then.

I bought some Dickie's Jalapeño & Cheese Sausage last week & Brookshire's. Ate it yesterday evening tonight it raised its stanking head. What overly salty crap sausage. High temperature process cheese need to be illegal. I cannot even remember what the little bit of meat tasted like other the jalapeño.

Bill Miller’s is quite possibly the worst BBQ in the state.

Anything east of the Mississippi.
Horrendous vinegar based sauce.
Ugh. Worse than Dickies.

I was surprised just how big they are. 151 location in just Texas.

Take a Nu Yauker or Californian there and they will maybe not move here they are so bad.

A-men!

When we moved down here I was excited to try Luby's. Then we did. I wasn't excited any more.

Man, someone lied to you. Lubys is horrible. I don't know if Furrs is still around, but they're just as bad.

The location we went to closed soon afterward.

When I was in high school the band took a trip to a competition at Opryland in Nashville. I can actually brag that I have played on stage at the Grand Ole Opry because of it. But...the band directors in their "wisdom" decided that the only places they would stop to let the kids eat on the entire trip were Luby's and Furr's. I refused to eat anything I either couldn't identify or that looked like poorly prepared slop, so for the entire trip I subsisted on mixed fruit cups and steamed broccoli. It was the only time when I was a teenager I ever actually lost weight instead of gaining.

There was an excellent cafeteria style restaurant in my childhood hometown called Bishop's. When I was a kid, my grandparents would take me there. Luby's was an attempt at nostalgia. Unfortunately, it was just a slap in the face confirming you can never go home again.

The band trip was my first experience with either cafeteria and...yeah, I never willingly went back after so many fails across five states (TX, LA, AR, MS, TN). This was in 1990.

The worst excuse for something called chili is at Real Chili in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It looks like they took dog turds and put them in a blender. I don't know what that would taste like, but their crap might be worse.

There is (or was in 2002) a Mexican restaurant on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Yeah, we didn't try it. One shudders to imagine what might lurk within.

Should of at least opened the door & see if it was authentic. I'm sure there's got to be a Mexican or 2 in Scotland. Some of the best Mexican food I've had are in little crappy looking buildings. In Houston I've ate at some sketchy looking taqarias that had some amazing food.

City Meat Market in Giddings. The flies liked it, but nobody else did.

Honorable mentions in the won't go back category:
Zimmerhanzel's BBQ in Smithville. Closed now. Everybody was sick after eating there...
Chisholm Trail in Lockhart.
Nathan's BBQ in Brenham.
Waller County Line BBQ.
HEB True Texas BBQ.
Hill Country BBQ in Hempstead.

 

[Lonesome Dove]

Never tried dickeys just for the name sake.
Mod pizza really sucks.

 

[Grumps21]

Salt lick just outside of Austin. I hear people rave about that place, but I didn’t like it one bit. Meat was dry and the sauce didn’t have much flavor to it. What a disappointment.

The best Dickey's was in Big Spring. It was ran by a black dude. He kept a really tight ship. You could taste the love for Q in the food there. He suddenly passed away and that place went to absolute shite. Haven't been back.
