atom disclaimer each joint is judged on the essence of texas cue sliced brisket and pork ribs sausage is only considered if house made sauce is good but good meat needs no adornment to satisfy each review can only be based on specific cuts of meat on that particular day finally if the place fries up catfish or serves a caesar salad then chances are they aren t paying enough attention to the pits so we mostly steered clear the prophets of smoked meat posm gear buy the official shirt of the prophets of smoked meat contact us if you know of a joint we need to add to the texas bbq map or if you

of black goodness around the edges of brisket or ribs that holds excellent flavor meat caramel after gratuitous amounts of smoke are applied and liquid rendered fat has come to the surface of the meat to mix with the applied rub a chemical rendering takes place that creates a sweet sticky layer on the surface of the meat that clings to the tip of your finger when pulled away from the meat this is affectionately known as meat snot parboiled a process in which ribs are boiled before being grilled or smoked this is what makes meat fall off the bone and it also leaves good flavorful fat in the water it s cheating rendered the process of cooking fat until it literally melts into the meat cook it too fast and the fat is absent from the meat creating dryness if it s not cooked long enough the fat remains gelatinous and unsavory there s no need to put well rendered fat aside roast beefy brisket that hasn t been bathed in smoke but rather tastes as if it was thrown in an oven like any hunk
