I really wanted to like this place. Becky had me so ready for a good experience.....Hubs is from Houston, and loves a good casual BBQ joint, and we'd been on the road for 2+ hours, so just getting out of the car to stretch our legs was a treat.\n\nWe arrived at a fun looking place, with cow hides all over, and lone stars everywhere. The smell from the smoker told me it was a solid choice, and I was already patting myself on the back for leading my family here. \n\nGreeted by a man (Bruce) whom I assume is a relative of the owners....most likely the dad who was grumpy to have to work that day, and completely unfamiliar with the workings of this deli/restaurant.\n\nHe greeted me brashly and told me that we could sit anywhere we want. We chose a quiet table in a room just off to the side of the main dining room, but in plain sight of the server. This evidently pissed him off to no end, because he said in a gruff voice \"NO one ever sits HERE\" and every other glass/cup/plate he brought out from them on was slammed on the table. He would then tend to another table, and he was as pleasant as pie, so I assume he just had it in for us because we didn't sit in the main dining room.\n\nThere were only a few tables when we got there just before 1pm, and they were already out of the cowboy caviar....it was a busy Friday afternoon, and I could hear from the server's other conversations that they were gearing up for a big medieval festival, so I didn't understand how they could be out of their specialty side so quickly.....but, no matter.\n\nI really thought Bruce was going to have an aneurysm  when he took our order... I'm thinking Bruce should be out back tending to the smoker.... But,  I really wasn't offended, as much as amused by his \"soup nazi\" mentality.\n\nI ordered beer. Took 15 minutes to get it, but it WAS good....served in a tall jelly jar, and only $1 :) Made me happy.\n\nOne ear of corn, which I ordered for my daughter was $3.... made me sad....especially since it was over cooked and soggy :(( Corn should never be soggy, unless it comes from the state fair, or from a can....\n\nIf I had to order from there again, I would get the chopped instead of the sliced brisket....the veins of fat in the brisket were thick and had to be cut off before I could eat it. The chopped brisket, on the other hand, was cheaper in price, and yielded way more edible beef. The smoke flavor was not very strong, and the BBQ sauces seemed to be watered down.\n\nA family of four ate a lunch there and the meal with tip was over $60...that was with NO dessert, and only $4 worth of beer. It is in a remote area by a destination golf course, so it probably does well with the locals, but I wouldn't go out of my way to go there again.
