thats probably because it wasn't a conversation. you questioned my opinions, and i answered. i think you're just mad i don't think big rigs is good bbq cause you seemed to take it rather personal. you also won't tell me your experience with bbq. once i again whats you're favorite bbq in the whole world is so vague how can i begin to answer that? if you want recommendations for good bbq, the answer becomes dependent on other relevant factors.

are you only able to eat at one bbq place in austin? im gonna have to say franklins because its the go to classic. but if you want some really awesome bbq go to la barabaque, micklethwait, and leroy and lewis. drive up to fort worth for goldees.

want whole hog in nc, you have to have skylight inn and sam jones then pick a couple others,but nothing will top skylight. get some chicharrons for snacking later.

want to try and bbq at home, first off don't try to do it in a pellet smoker, they suck. make sure you know how to properly trim a brisket, something big rigs does not. choose your wood wisely, texas is known for post oak. watch some how to videos online. learn the important temps and times. meat will be absorbing the most smoke the first two hours of smoking. this is when your ring is formed and is why its important to not f it up.
