Pecan Lodge in Dallas

[2165 Turbo Rail]

anyone ever been there? we just saw it on Diners, Drive In's and Dives and it looked really good

is it worth the long lines that they supposedly have?

[UserX]

I saw that on TV yesterday too.

I haven't been yet, but I've heard great things about it.

If there's anything Dallas truely lacks is enough good Texas style BBQ.

I still want to try Lockhart BBQ in south Dallas too, but it's such a long trip to both from the north side of town.

We came to the Pecan Lodge today and it is outstanding
The kids has a chopped sandwich
Stacy had the pulled pork
I had the three met plate with sausage, sliced brisket and pulled pork ( they were out of ribs)

We had the fried okra. It was good but just good not outstanding

Mac and cheese was really good

Brisket was awesome
Sausage was really good
Pulled pork was pretty damn good too

The wait was about 55 mins an the line was wrapped around the building inside but you get your food 30 seconds after you sign your bill. We got in line at noon and it is now 1:23p

I would recommend coming if you can be here about an hour and a half or better

It's delicious. He used to come by our office with the smoker on a trailer behind his Land Rover every Wednesday for lunch. He was getting too many catering orders to keep doing that so his sister said he set up a spot down at the farmer's market, but I haven't been down there to verify.

Bringing this back from the dead to say it was damn good. I had the 3 meat + side that included Brisket, Ribs & Sausage w/pinto beans.

Yes it was worth the $21.
Yes it was worth the 1 hr 12 min wait.
Yes I would only do it on a work day where I am getting paid to have a 2 hr lunch

i've been. it is the best damn brisket i ever had and im ready to go back.
get some burnt ends while you are at it. mac and cheese is good, i second the okra is good but nothing special. banana pudding is pretty good.

the cheese shop sells beer. bring a buddy, trade off turns buying rounds while in line.

I heard that it won't be there much longer, due to the remodel of the Farmer's Market

^ what they said. Probably 3rd best brisket i've ever had. Their beef ribs probably the best i've ever had.

OK $8 for a half pound of brisket?

[momo]

yup

[Rick Modena]

OK $8 for a half pound of brisket?

yup

Fuck that!
I pay $6.99 per half at Rudy's and I've never had a bad batch, I've also never had to wait in no fucking hour or more line, the most I have waited was in the indoor line at Rudy's and it wasn't more than 15 minutes.. They have run out of ribs and smoked potatoes, but the brisket has always been consistent.
