This morning, I've been thinking about how much the Austin BBQ scene has changed since I arrived here back in September 2007. Way more joints. More importantly, way better joints.

Answer sent to me via Twitter: "1) @JSM_meat. Nuff said Drew."
Sent via Twitter: "I can give you a 3-way tie for #1 plus a 4, a 5, and a 6. That's as good as it gets, different favorites at each of the top 3. Actually, append that. Too hard once I started trying to order them. There are 2 tiers...tier 1: @FranklinBbq @JSM_meat @la_Barbecue, tier 2: @CraftMeats @BlueOxBarbecue @FreedmensBar. I make my own rules. :-)"
Sent via Twitter: "FreedmensBar, LaBBQ, JMMC, Franklins, Stiles Switch, Blue Ox, Craft Meats. That's seven. First four are all almost equal."
Sent to me via Twitter: "Cannot comment on Franklin but I would easily put @FreedmensBar above JMMC and Craftmeats. Based on consistency is why I'd move Freedmens ahead of the others. I'm planning on coming back late July for Ox."
