And yes, The Ginger Man Pub does have an obscene number of beers on tap. You should definitely go, it's reasonable walking distance from 6th St -- well, as long as you go BEFORE you start drinking a lot. One other thing about Texas BBQ: Your focus should be on the brisket and the pork ribs, or pulled pork if ribs aren't available. I don't think the sausage is usually anything special. The chicken can be very good in some places (including Rudy's) but usually nothing amazing and never as good as the brisket and ribs. And the turkey is just there for health nuts, though ironically sometimes even that aspect is cancelled out when places compensate for turkey's dryness by dipping it in melted butter. As for sides, beans are the most popular, but I greatly prefer German potato salad, which has a vinegar base which makes it awesome, as opposed to mayonnaise-based regular potato salad that I personally can't stand.

Some places do certain things better. No place does all things awesome it seems. But Rudy's does a really good job across all of the meats. Nothing spectacular, its all good! Although...if you stick to BBQ in Austin you are missing out on a lot of other great food!

On a similar note, are any of you folks going to be in Austin around the time we are? It would be great to meet some of our southern M3 friends!

Cool. Once we know a little more about our agenda, we'll fill you folks in. Hopefully, we can all get together and do some bench racing, and have a beer!
