Dang you guys!! I need those more than anyone!!! Travis, please deliver to Miller Creek RV Park in Johnson City!! LOL
Trip is going so well!! Got to the campground and it is beautiful!! Missed a meeting with Travis due to being surrounded by women...ah well, we are gonna shoot for Saturday. The truck is doing pretty well. All temps are good and power has been better since I am figuring out how to operate it and push the perimeters. Parked for the next four days and gonna drink a lot of beer, eat BBQ, and sit by the creek. Good times.

I like pretty much like any Shiner...and that beef from the Midwest is alright, but that Texas beef down the street from me is no joke. Midwest brisket isn't even on the same planet! LOL I think we need a Texas Riff Raff event.

Byron, if you're looking for BBQ joints around Johnson City, run over to Ronnie's BBQ. They're pretty good. They aren't Cooper's or Franklin's, but I've never left there mad before. Lol. Franklin's in East Austin is probably the best brisket I've ever had, but you have to stand in line for literally hours to get your hands on some. Lol.

Midwest beef. Ie cattle are better than that of Texas. There's more for them to eat than scrub brush and tumbleweed. Lol

Now if you want to send some filets down here in a cooler and Travis and I can do a taste comparison, I will give it a shot. I never say no to free beef if it isn't green!!

What makes Texas beef so good is it is slow cooked on the hoof for a long period of time before being served.
I just spent a week at a KOA in Ouray,CO that has an excellent Texas BBQ gig going on. The owner Dave prides himself on it. I have never tasted any so good in all my life.
I love road trips and posts about them, especially when they are still in progress..
Happy Trailering..
