Weekend recap

Yesterday, Amber and I hit up two places we'd never been: Kip's Texas BBQ in San Marcos (Get the pork ribs.) and McBee's Bar-B-Que in New Braunfels (Go sausage. Go turkey, if you want a sweet glaze on the outside.). Todd made the trip to Driftwood for a meal at The Salt Lick. Haven't heard if anyone else in the group had any BBQ. Pics to come.

Reader Review: McBee’s Bar-B-Que & Country Cooking (Pleasanton, Texas)

Reviewed by: James K. Merriman (Mesquite, Texas)

Let me start out with I am the self proclaimed BBQ king. I have 45 years experience cooking on and with everything you can imagine and then some. I and my 86 year old stepmother went to try the BBQ at McBee’s in Pleasanton, Texas. Upon seeing the outside it looks and is very charming and warm. The smokers are outside in a court yard and you can view what is going on at all times. The inside is pretty much like all BBQ places except in south Texas they try to put southern hospitality in all they do. We each ordered the three meat combo, yea my little stepmother weighs 92lbs and can eat with the best of them. The sausage was dry, tasty but to dry. The brisket was good, good smoke ring, tender and good flavor. The ribs were very good well prepared, tender with good rib flavor. The sauce was just a little thin but flavorful. All in all I give it a B+. They don't serve beer and that is a negative, but livable, try it.
