    I love banana pudding. Ever made it with chocolate instead of vanilla ?

    It's alright ... but I wouldn't call it awesome ... I'll get some if it's time to stop ... but I wouldn't stop just for the Q.

    If I stop on the 20, it will be at Bodacious in Tyler.
    Can't speak to the banana pudding, though. Personally not fond of it in general.

    Stopped at the Cowboy Plaza on I35 x 174 in OK ... Had the 3 meat platter, ribs, sliced brisket and pulled pork ... It's bad, real bad. Ribs were barely edible ... I saved the brisket and pork, I might be able to salvage it by making tacos out of it.

    On a side note their jalapeno baked beans were pretty good and the dinner comes with a pickle bar ... It's a salad bar with just, well, pickles. The bread and butter pickles were also pretty decent.

    I'm at the J in Dothan tonight ... SoI thought I'd give Dobbs a try ... got the meat sampler. First they don't use brisket for their beef, they use a rump roast ... not good, it's one of those cuts that should not be BBQd ... not enough fat or connective tissue make the meat moist for slow smoking.

    The pulled pork was average and the ribs were fair. Their problem is they use no rub. Not even salt and pepper. The meat reflects it, there isn't really much flavor there.

    Side note the people there were very friendly and the service was good. Go their for an hamburger or something, but the BBQ is disappointing.
