The BBQ Snob and Smokemasterone got some recent publicity in the Dallas Morning News. I did an interview at Baby Back Shak with Lindsay Kalter of DMN who has just learned to enjoy BBQ after living in Michigan for most of her life. Clarence, the owner of the Shak was glad to see us there, and happy to give me some tasty morsels for the road. I sure do love their ribs. One of the photographers that came along is the founder of Baby Back Shak's Facebook fan club, so he was happy to be eating for free. We all had plenty of food and a plenty good time.

On another note, Urbanspoon just celebrated having their 1000th blogger by writing up a story about their current blogger. FCGBBQ gets a nice mention in the article.

Congrats for being in the DMN. It was the first that I have heard of this blog and I am enjoying reading it! Good work!
ReplyDeleteNice article and interesting web site. However, where is the list of the fabulous six star bbq joints?
ReplyDeleteI keep searching for the elusive 6-star joint. It requires two 5-star (perfect) experiences in a row. There have been four contenders so far, but none have made it.
ReplyDeleteSo can you please name the top four for us?
ReplyDeleteThanks.
I love all of my 5-stars equally...ok, so maybe City Market in Luling, Kreuz and Smitty's in Lockhart, Prause Meat Market in LaGrange and Snow's in Lexington would round out my top 5.
ReplyDeletelooks like another southern pride in the background..
ReplyDeleteIt is, but Clarence tells me they don't skimp on the wood.
ReplyDeleteWe've been going to the original Spring Creek BBQ since like the late 80's, but I'm going to try some of the others on your list. Just found you after the DMN article and glad you're out there! Thanks for all the hard work!
