Update: A return trip has yielded disappointing results regarding meats but one fantastic concept that I'd like to advocate. I got a sliced beef sandwich and a side of two ribs. The ribs were very similar to my first visit. Tender with a pleasant glaze, but no smoke at all. The brikset was even less distinctive than before. Low and slow was definitely not the tempo as the fat was barely beginning to render yet the meat was one consistent tone of grey and lacked any crust or smoke line.
The good news, at least at a conceptual level, is that I witnessed a stroke of genius while waiting in line. The implications of the item "Po Boy" on the menu had escaped my entirely until I saw one being put together. A long, buttered and toasted split roll was covered in sliced beef and doused with their sweet and dark sauce. While not a traditional Texas presentation of what meets our traditional Texas standards, it looking fantastic. Maybe it would be sacrilege to put some of Snow's transcendent brisket to use in that manner, but good Lord, would it be tasty.
