I have personally eaten here and it is amazing. Great Texas BBQ done well, with amazing African-inspired spice combinations/sauces that work very well. Everything I tried was very good, but highlights for me were the chicken leg quarters and the black-eyed peas.

I REALLY liked the attention to detail in terms of the paper. In reality it is likely a very small difference, but as he says about fine dining, details at that level are important. You see a lot of bbq guys just wrapping like 4 yards of butcher paper and just folding it under, and while I'm sure that's not going to ruin anything, it's cool to see guys really getting into the nitty gritty. Which I think you have to do in Texas (or anywhere, really) bbq, given the very high bar for something like brisket.
@cedricanderson26095 ай бұрын
I learned a lot watching this guy. I would love to pick his brain about the history of his culinary point of view. I love how he highlights the African influences on bbq. I want to go eat there next time I am in Austin.

I was a loyal Qstoves+ user for years but recently switched to Asmoke, and wow, what a game changer! The versatility of Asmoke is simply unmatched. The precision temperature control lets me grill, smoke, roast, and even bake with ease. I can switch from searing a steak to baking a pizza all on the same grill. But what really sets Asmoke apart is the flavor. The wood pellets add a unique smoky taste to the food that Qstoves+ just couldn't match. Plus, the convenience of the battery power and the ability to use it wirelessly has transformed my outings. No more searching for power outlets or struggling with cords. I can focus on the food and the experience. If you're on the fence about making the switch, trust me, you won't regret it. Asmoke is a game changer. #Asmoke

It amazes me how far food has come. From African to slaves the black culture continued to create such delicacies! Most of these dishes were considered “throw away” foods and given to the slaves. Hush puppies, crawfish, greens, corn bread, ham hocks, black eyed peas, neck bones, and many more. Gumbo spawned from this. Take what you have and make something from it. At one point lobster and crabs were deemed unfit to eat and given to the slaves as food when caught in the nets of fishermen. Now we see these as delectable! It’s just bizarre to me. Louisiana cuisine is built on a lot of these said items!
