I've made a pilgrimage to Coopers in Llano to eat under W's picture. KYHillChick has down there that sends it to us as a Christmas Present.


Whoever it was who invented it Im thankful. My adopted grand dad's cousins over in Lockhart had good BBQ back in the day. They were all Kreuz's!


Prolly wasn't mesquite they were slow cooking with. But that's ok.

And yet it irks me the poor dappled fools,
Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."
