Never heard of this place before, stopped by Tender Smokehouse in Frisco for lunch yeasterday. They have a sandwich called "El Jefe"...damn it was good. Menu is simple and their prices are fair. Tender Smokehouse
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

The TM top 50 should be coming out soon, I know they recently finished up their food tour.

May try this joint out. Hutchins in McKinney has disappointed me after they just opened back up after the fire. You can NOT buy single or two meat plates anymore. Everything is by the weight. Very inconvenient if you are trying to eat on the run. Rant over

Hutchins in Frisco has been consistently good. Best brisket that I have had.

They have a sandwich called "El Jefe"...damn it was good. Looks like there's way too much going on in that sandwich. Best BBQ I've had in DFW is Pecan Lodge and Heim. Nobody else is close (I haven't tried Cattleack yet). My son and I recently ventured down to Lexington just to try Snow's. It was very good, but we both think Pecan Lodge and Heim are better. But, the best I've ever had is Franklin's, followed by Kreuz.

Driving 3-4 hours for a BBQ lunch is not optimal from DFW.

Looks awesome with the exception that if I'm going to drive almost 40 miles one way for lunch, I'd like to be able to sit down inside the restaurant to eat (I read that it's takeout only).

I keep saying i need to go back and try it again, but haven't yet. I also haven't tried Heim, is there a specific location that's the one to go to, or are they all consistant with each other?
