Drinks with me and Mullet for starters. What part of Houston? I work downtown live southwest of town.
We have a fantastic museum district, an incredible food scene...and that’s about it. |

Yep. Remember that from when I was working near there in 2008.
If your number is the same, I'll give you a call when I get in Sunday night. |

Sure is, Sunday night we’re having dinner at 7:30 with a few forum folks actually down near my place if you land early enough. Fri-sun afternoon we’ll be at MOTO GP in Austin.

While you're there you should hit up the best BBQ place in Texas and get yourself a McRib.

I'm down for a meet-n-greet, just let us know when and where. I'd suggest Killen's BBQ, or any number of Tex Mex restaurants.

Overall I’m just underwhelmed with Houston’s bbq scene...hill country/Austin is where it’s at. But I haven’t actually made it into Killens BBQ yet. |

This is the mecca for Texas bbq: https://saltlickbbq.com/ County Line on 2222 in Austin is good, too, great scenery. The Houston location in NW Houston is also good, but can't quite capture the experience of the Austin location. |
