    There are actually a few places besides Micho around here to buy marinated fajiats (El Rancho comes to mind). Just tired of the typical red marinade that everybody does. I've taken to buying them unmiranated and doing them myself but didn't have the time. That and we were looking for something different and BBQ was voted in. I just chose poorly.

    I don't know why my mind went completely blank Saturday afternoon when we settled for BBQ. Not a lot of good choices in my area either except for maybe Lockhart.

    I'll have to hit them up this weekend. I've been saying that for to long now.

    I need to go by there again. The last two times I was there were right after they opened and it was so so. I actually considered going there last Saturday but didn't want to deal with parking (which can be pretty bad on the weekends).

    LOL my Step-father picked up some of their fajitas for our cook-out and he tried acting like he marinaded them himself, they have some good fajita meat there.

Bad idea Both the ribs and brisket were pretty dry and adding sauce did not help what so ever

    I think the last time I bought BBQ it was from a guy who had a pit on a trailer at a gas station down the street from my house. I bought some chopped and sliced brisket along with a link sandwich. BBQ from this guy was much better than Colter's. Wish I had seen him Saturday

    If you look at most franchises, the large majority of them serve shit food. All you need is a simple concept and marketing.

    No doubt! I need to do a road trip to Lockhart, TX to remember what good BBQ is like again.
