To get this point: You must enjoy small town Central Texas BBQ.
Caveat #1: You must receive your BBQ on a slab of paper material of some kind or else it does not count.
Caveat #2: If you are vegetarian...you must bring a carnivorous friend and share his/her side orders, while he/she devours the BBQ.
There are many food items that Texas is famous for-- fajitas, citrus, chili, salsa, shrimp, migas, kolaches and chicken fried anything, but to obtain this point you must go to the heart of Texas culinary spirit--BBQ. There are different BBQ joints throughout Texas and many are excellent, but the best BBQ is in central Texas- Luling, Taylor, Lockhart, Elgin, and Lexington.
To give you an idea about some good BBQ joints, I will refer to the Texas Monthly in June 2008 where the top 5 included:
- Lexington, TX- Snow's BBQ
- Lockhart, TX- Kreuz Market
- Lockhart, TX- Smitty's Market
- Luling, TX- City Market
- Taylor, TX- Louie Mueller Barbeque

Wondering if this counts...several years ago...6 or 7...my family and I stopped at Rudy's BBQ (I think that's the name) in the San Antonio/Boerne area, and they served us brisket on butcher paper and, seperately, big thick slices of white bread that was in a paper bag. This is what we got after ordering sliced barbecue sandwiches!
Also...Joel's BBQ in Flatonia! I think this is the best I've had. Located on I-10 in Flatonia, TX, smack in the middle between San Antonio and Houston. There is always a big American Flag flying. Can't miss it.
