The Rotisserie Chicken at The Water Stop Is The Second Best Reason to Go to Marfa | Bon Appétit
"An unassuming roadside restaurant built around a single vintage rotisserie that the chef, Rebecca Bockelie, centered the entire operation on when she opened it in December 2017. Whole organic chickens are brined overnight in honey, sea salt, and sugar and cooked over mesquite and pecan wood, yielding exceptionally juicy meat and burnished, crackly skin. Beyond the chicken, the menu features epic biscuits, custardy quiche, chewy, toffee-y chocolate-chip cookies, and a green-chili cheeseburger served on squishy housemade buns with hand-cut fries—dishes that prompt visitors to wonder how and why the cooking is so good and to consider returning for the food." - ByJulia Kramer
