    Welcome! Glad y'all are gonna be here.

    Andrews does a lot of out-and-back loads of engine oil and other lubricants, packaged and in bulk.


    Conspicuously absent from that list are Evie Mae's (Wolfforth), Big E's (Lubbock) , Hard 8 (Stephenville), The Salt Lick (Driftwood), and Harmon's (Cibolo).

    edit: and Southside Market in Elgin. Plus, ya know, Stubbs (Austin). And Howard's (Corpus Christi).

    It’s not Maxine’s on Benbrook Blvd is it?
    I use to go there when I was stationed at Carswell back in the early 80’s.

    Might be. Now it's called Johnny B's. Right next to a closed out strip club

    I don't think I am going to live long enough to sample every bbq joint in Texas, which is certainly a testament to the beauty of Texas.

    How is the sausage at 407? I seek out quality sausages.

    Hell yea buddy! I wish you much luck in the new location. If you find yourself missing blue armpit hair...visit Austin. I hear they keep it weird there.

    Oh an I vote Tanker. Dry Van is so 2019. ;)

    No Tacos? In Texas? Serving booze but no tacos?!

    An yes...I've got some jokes, but...alas...I feel staff would not be as amused as me or the rest of you. Sadly, not all of my humor is forum friendly. ;)


    @Flat Earth Trucker You need a best of Tacos in Texas list. BBQ is everywhere.

    Let me know if you want to piss of any Texas, I'll gladly send you some good old NC BBQ if you promise to send me the video of their heads exploding from the audacity of such a concept. :) I like Texas BBQ...and NC, and Tenn. And KS. And everywhere else that has their own BBQ style. Only Texans get all butt hurt though. It's fun messing with them.


    I mess with Texas and I enjoy it. HAHAHAHAHAH!

    They left out Snakes, Scorpions, Spiders, Cartels, Illegal's, doped up rednecks with guns, etc etc.

    Read the post from "Just passing by"...on the following thread page...for a few tanker recommendations:

    Switching from dry van to tanker

    But good BBQ ain't.


    Oh please, NC's version of BBQ is just pulled pork with vinegar-y sauce, and ribs.

    Lockhart is hands down my favorite. Best brisket I've had anywhere, and ask for extra bark.
