"This sprawling indoor and outdoor barbecue joint, serving Central Texas-style smoked meats, is a kid’s paradise. There’s lots of room to play, afternoon live music, and a laid-back vibe in the East County establishment. The kids’ menu has chicken strips and a pulled pork sandwich, but the general menu has smoked meat options for carnivores of all ages, like barbecue spareribs with Frito relish." - Helen I. Hwang
