Like all BBQ places, it just depends how you hit them. No brisket is good if it has been sitting out being sliced for an hour.

On my way to Waco, what's the best BBQ in Dallas?

The Pecan Lodge is my favorite in that area.

Gone way down hill over the years. It is now cashing in on a memory.

I haven't been there in about six years, so that's a bummer to hear.

make sure you say pee-can instead of pee-cawn. They don't like that

Tried that a couple years back, SUPER unimpressed

Weird. I have been there a few times and was super impressed every time.

If you’ve been impressed there you’ll be blown away at some other places

Farmer's Market Pecan Lodge is 80's/mid 90's BYU. Current Pecan Lodge is mid 2010's BYU

They were the anchor at the Dallas Farmer's market. Only open Fri-Sun. Market tried to strong arm PL so they went brick

You can do this in Waco and eat somewhere else in DFW.

Cattleack if you're there on Friday. Otherwise try panther city. 407 if going

I went to 407 once and was pretty underwhelmed. I won't be going back.

McKinney used to be the better location but after their fire it's pretty even imo

Panther City in Fort Worth is good. Rudy's is a chain, but its Moist Brisket

RedHeadedStranger

10:27am

Rudy's brisket breakfast tacos is the best breakfast money can buy. So good.

Big Ernie's BBQ

Jeffacka
