i remember seeing chuck talk about wanting to open her own place in alvin's vid about goldies - amazing to see that not only did she do it, she's among the best of the best now. thanks for sharing their story!

[@Nesto-nv7iq]

As soon as i seen this video i remembered that, im proud of her she is really doing it and went thru with opening her own restaurant

[@JamesWang007]

Same, really great to see her dream come true.

[@joshworthy9756]

SO glad Chuck is finally getting her flowers and her time to shine. She's busted her backside at her craft and has always been so transparent with everything that shes learned and experienced. Seeing her backstory and support from Jirby, Jo, and her entire village is empowering. Fantastic story telling as usual, Ant. This one is an absolute gem.

[@David-burrito]

This video deserves some kind of award for excellence. It is so much more than just a cooking tutorial. The human interest aspect, the way the personal interview segments are conducted takes it over the top. Well done to everyone involved. It's cool to see a Goldee's smoker behind her.

[@darcycardenas24]

I could watch Chuck and the Barbs-B-Q team work their magic all day!! Such a beautiful and inspiring story, you really can’t help but wish the very best for them. Can’t wait to visit again!! 🙌🏼

thank you, yeah chuck is awesome. loved everything she shared

[@tedchanin2013]

You've done it again. These people and their stories that you show and tell are incredibly inspiring. I'm always happy when you delve into the backgrounds of these folks. I've seen Chuck and some of her barbecue experiences in various KZbins over the last 4-5 years, and to now to see her success (co) owning and operating Barb's B-Q and The Texas Monthly acclaim is really something to be quite proud of. Keep up the fantastic work!

[@AntsBBQCookout]

Thank you for the kind words!

[@marcorodriguez5919]

Amazing story! I remember watching the Goldees Documentary and you specifically said you were going to open your Bbq restaurant of your own! You did it! Truly inspirational! Can’t wait to visit your place next time we are in Texas. We applaud your hard work from California. ❤

Aw I’m happy to see Chuck got her restaurant and hit the list too!

[@daniel.espinotx]

Love this! You can see the passion behind the business. Also happy to see the Mexican culture behind Chuck and her business. I teared up a bit when she mentioned her parents and the Juan Gabriel song. I totally understand where she is coming from!

[@andrewharp2233]

Honestly the best series of videos out there. Thanks Ant

[@HolisticPatriots]

It's great to see Chuck and the Team at Barbs-B-Q get out from under her previous job. That place was totally holding her back. Now her talents will be truly appreciated.

She's got something special to have the nerve to open a first time shop in Lockhart of all places, a couple blocks from Black's, and not only succeed, but excel. The reviews are incredible, Next time I'm down there for work I'm stopping by.

[@wordlifejce]

I remember seeing you on a goldees video a few years back and you made a comment about maybe opening your own BBQ place one day... I remember thinking "She should!" To then come across this video makes me so happy for you! I love that you are willing to stretch BBQ and do things that aren't normal because YOU love it... Spaghetti...Lamb... BOTH amazing items! My wife and I often smoke our tomato's with basil just to get that smoke flavor in our spaghetti Sause and everyone is always blown away! As an entrepreneur myself... I cheer you along from afar (DFW lol) and pray success for you!

[@JoG46]

I believe in Chuck and all of her brilliant ideas! There is a lot of blood, sweat and tears that go into crafting such highly acclaimed BBQ! Chuck is one of the best humans on this earth and I’m so excited to see what the future holds for her. #BarbsBQForever ❤️❤️❤️
