Texas and BBQ go hand in hand just like Wisconsin and cheese. Austin has several fantastic BBQ options to choose from. For my taste-buds today I chose Green Mesquite BBQ. You know the place is authentic when you smell the smoker from the parking lot.
I made sure I showed up with an appetite. I had to try their wings because they are smoked not fried. It was a great change from the typical wings you find in other restaurants.
For my main course I decided to go crazy and try the pulled pork, the traditional type BBQ dish from the Carolina’s. I was curious how it would taste prepared the Texas way. The pork was very tender and retained its moisture. The smokey flavor was in every bite of the pork that it really didn’t need any BBQ sauce – but you can’t help but put the homemade sauce all over the meat.
When I go back again I am making sure I try the brisket because it looked so mouth watering. Check them out at: www.greenmesquite.net
Enjoy!
