    I have been running Wichita often lately.....anything out that way other than Oak Grove in MO?
    I could have swore years ago there was something else near KC that had truck parking.....
    Been looking for a good brisket place but don't get to Texas anymore..

    Exit 87 BBQ is good on I40 in Jackson, Tn. If you are heading south on 55 in Southaven, Ms you can get off Stateline Road exit 291' go east about half a mile and go to Tops BBQ which has a big parking lot beside it. On Hwy 78 exit 6 in Olive Branch there is another Tops BBQ beside the Flying Hook. And just know that Memphis has the best BBQ in the world, you need to check out the Memphis in May BBQ fest world championships.

    Rudy's Country store, about a mile walk from TA Albequerque.

    Well, Memphis in May is right there on the bluff of the Mississippi River. I'm not sure where a big truck could park, it would be best to go just as a mini vacation. They have the BBQ competition, a lot of big music groups and you aren't too far from Beale Street which is pretty cool.

    Now this is a useful thread! Lots of great info!
    Several of these were already on my list but there's a lot of places on here I'm gonna try.
    My 2 cents ...Freeney's BBQ
    7822 S Great Trinity Forest Way, Dallas, TX.
    I just found it a few days ago.
    Easy full rig parking. Food was great!
    Freeney is a really nice guy! The hospitality was so good that if the food had been bad ...I would've still gone back!
    Brisket killed it! Loved the hot links! Great sides! Huge portions on the sides!
    The pecan pie gets a resounding YES!!!
