Location and Hours TBD
On a recent Friday evening I was traversing Deep Ellum on my way to Pepe’s for a much needed infusion of chipotle wine sauce. I was fighting back twinges of nostalgia as there was a small line of some sort in front of the reopened Trees and construction permits hanging in a few of the other spaces. As I crossed Crowdus, I noticed a Ford F-150 packed to the gills with a large wheeled smoker that had settled in the parking lot in front of Club Clearview. The severe shortage of street food in Dallas is well known, so I couldn’t pass up this opportunity.
Ribs weren’t ready yet, so I settled for a sliced beef sandwich. My slices had been trimmed of any evidence of crust. They could have used a few more minutes in the smoker with their bonier brethren, but were generally moist and flavorful. Momma raye’s is currently open Tuesday through Saturday, 7pm to 2am at the corner of Elm and Crowdus. They plan to open a permanent home at Commerce and Walton in the next few weeks. I’ll withold a star rating for now, but I can recommend Momma raye’s to those who need a little extra fuel while out enjoying the resurgence of Deep Ellum. I hope both are on a strong upward arc.

Looks like I mis-identified the truck as a Ford. Definitely a product of the General.
