5 sailors died in a training accident this week and I haven’t seen a single picture of 5 beers sitting out at a bar or 5 flags planted in the yard in memorial. Just like the other 2300+ killed in Afghanistan, people only seem to care when it suits their agenda.
Had a nice pity party by the dumpsters with some of the other restaurant owners in our strip center. Second month in a row we have had to clean out our walk in coolers.
Welp, another day of begging people to order pick up and begging the government for assistance just so we can continue paying our staff. This is exhausting, please continue ordering from you favorite local restaurants. We all need your help.
I too find the price of meat ridiculously high. Maybe instead of blaming restaurants, direct your frustration to the 4 meat packing companies who control 80% of meat sold in the US. They’re the only one making money at the moment.
The agent of a projected 6th rounder asked us to provide FREE bbq for 50 people for his draft party. Bro, we’re a Thursday night bbq joint, not a Saturday afternoon joint.
Hi it’s me, fighting with every dickhead about masks on our business page because I have a year’s worth of pent up anger and I’m fucking done with this bullshit.
So the Astros cheating is worse than the Yankees and Red Sox because they cut out the middleman on second base? All 3 stole signs. The new argument seems to be that the Astros were worse because they relayed the info directly to the batter.
Oof, what a day. Yes bbq is expensive, I can’t do anything about meat prices. I’m sorry we serve bread and butter pickles and not regular pickles, whatever the fuck those are. Anyways, here’s your refund.
I am so incredibly proud for
@FegesBBQ
to be recognized as one of the best 50 bbq restaurants in Texas. She may not have been mentioned in the article, but Feges BBQ isn’t where we’re at today without

John Mother Fucking Brotherton is one of the most loved and respected people in bbq. He was the best of us. He was a great ambassador for Texas bbq. Hug your local pitmaster this week, we’re all hurting.
So my dad passed away this week. Not a complete surprise, but still a shock nonetheless. He loved to tell me, “I know that you can make a really good smoked brisket, but I make this Dr Pepper brisket in the oven that is some of the best that you’ll ever have.”
If the City of Houston regulated and scrutinized chemical plants as much as they did bbq restaurants and food trucks, we wouldn’t have all these incidents.
Is anybody else seeing a lack of communication from center point and city leadership on an actual timetable of repairs. Or am I just not looking that hard.
If only there was a company that could turn on the power to GRB…
Aim that criticism somewhere else
@whitmire_john
. Houston needs this distraction, just like we did in 2017.
Houston's mayor lobs a grenade at the Astros for playing Tuesday:
“George Brown doesn't have energy yesterday ... but we got a ball game going on down the street two blocks,” Whitmire said. “We got to get our priorities right, folks.”
My beer in the fridge is starting to cool back down. I get to sleep in my own bed tonight. Bar Bludorn reopened so we get to keep our reservations for tonight that we made weeks ago. Wyatt goes back to school tomorrow.
Things are looking up.
Last night on the way home from work, a car blew through a red light and hit my truck. Truck is dead, I’m bruised but fine (I think, currently at the dr office)
When I was just a line cook, I always went and grabbed bbq for lunch after a particular rough service the night before. Always acted as a sort of reset for my head. Yesterday wasn’t fun, so today I’m eating at one of my favorite bbq joints.
This surge feels different from any other time this past year because guests absolutely do not give a fuck what small businesses are going through right now.

@ShipleyDo_Nuts
is really the superior donut. All those places that just throw a bunch of crap on top of their donut are just pretenders.
Finally got tired of listening to the complaints, and the one star reviews, and switched to coke products. First guest today: “What, no Big Red?!”
Y’all, Pepsi distributes Big Red.
An employee’s car was stolen out of the parking lot. Called
@houstonpolice
over an hour and a half ago and no one has showed up. Station full of cop cars less than half a mile away.
On november 9th of 2020, I signed the nda to start the process of bottling our bbq sauces. We finally get them delivered tomorrow.
On to the next project.
Live in an area experiencing a drought? For a small fee, I will schedule an outdoor cooking event near you. Guaranteed to produce rain or your money back.
I wish there was a way to let social media ad spyware know that I finally bought a backpack and that they don’t need to keep advertising backpacks to me anymore.
My parents have been stuck in their hillside neighborhood outside Fredericksburg with no power or water for 5 days now. They’ve been checking on and feeding their elderly neighbors the whole time. That’s what Texans do. They deserve a trip to Cancun.
It’s like the entire city of Houston has forgotten Harden running everybody off, helping Morey bury this team in a hole, and then quitting on the city. I don’t understand the sudden infatuation with bringing him back.
Eating cheese off of a wooden block next to some cold cuts is fine dining, but shoveling shredded cheese into your mouth by the handful while standing over the sink makes your weirdo?
Due to unexpected turnover, I have been working the closing pit shift the past couple of weeks and I am absolutely nailing the second half of the brisket cook.
He never made it for me, just bragged about it. So I’ll be walking around the dining room at Feges BBQ tomorrow, handing out cans of Lone Star and Dr Pepper burnt ends.
My wife and Chopped Champion
@PurslaneErin
competed against 3 other champions just a few months after Wyatt was born last year. Tonight he got to see how badass his mom is.
Erin and I get the keys to our new house on Friday. It'll be my first place of residence with central AC in 10 years. You know, in case y'all were wondering when we'll get our first cold front.
We're trapped in this office building with no office workers to feed. We'll do curbside, we'll meet you at the doors and give you access to eat in this giant, mostly empty food court.
