BONUS STOP! I heard about City Market BBQ in Luling, TX, but didn't think I would have enough time to stop by on this trip. Lucky for you (and me), it was close and I drove down. Boy am I glad that I did. I got there during their very busy lunch rush, so I wasn't able to get a tour but Alex (who was working in their pit room) was generous in letting me take some pics of the pits and him. Just look at those sausage links smoking away (photo below)!

Sausage is steadily rising on my personal list of BBQ faves. I ordered the ribs and sausage and thought they were top notch. Their barbecue sauce was unique in that it had mustard mixed into it, but not in the same heavy vinegar fashion as a South Carolina sauce. Tasty! #‎chasingbbq
