BBQ in the News


Hanna Raskin at the Observer learns that Momma Raye's BBQ, which has been operating out of a mobile smoker (early FCGBBQ review here), will be putting down roots in Deep Ellum. Thanks to SmokeMasterOne for having a good eye, and to Hanna for the shout out!

Craig 'Meathead' Goldwyn of AmazingRibs.com has two great articles out there on the interweb. First is a taxonomy of regional BBQ sauces, and the second is a primer on pork rib cuts. Both of these are concise explanations of somewhat common knowledge items for BBQ fanatics, but they provide a good introduction for the novice.

D Magazine names their top BBQ joint in Dallas. Taking home the cake is a very deserving Meshack's, while the readers select Sonny Bryan's...again.

Also in the same D issue is a good explanation about why we don't have more mobile food trucks. If you guessed code officials, then you're correct. I guess we won't be seeing any good mobile smokehouses anytime soon.

And finally, the Observer has no love for a new local joint in west Arlington called Tollie's. I'll be independently verifying their story this weekend.
