South Texas BBQ
Tuesday, June 24, 2014
I’ll let you in on a secret that isn’t so secret about me: If I am anywhere North of Llano, Texas, then I’m just
not interested at all in eating at a BBQ restaurant. That includes any joint in Dallas or Ft. Worth or
Lubbock or Amarillo or anywhere inbetween. Unless it is made by someone I trust in their backyard, I’m
not interested in BBQ up here. Sure, if I’m invited, I’ll go politely, but you’ll never catch me recommending
any spot in the Northern half of our state. I hate to get too elitist in any category of my life, but two places
that I won’t budge are 1) an orthodox understanding and application of the gospel and 2) BBQ done right. !
!
So, when I headed South with my brother last week to visit my grandmother in the hospital in Austin, we
had several places to eat lined up in advance. Even my sister-in-law was excited at first, “Oh, I love eating
BBQ!” Two days into the trip she asked, “Are we really going to eat BBQ every meal??”!
Yes. We sure are. !
When given the opportunity (which is rare), I want to take supreme advantage of the ability to eat at all the
best BBQ spots in our state. I’m talking:!
Cooper’s Old-Time Pit BBQ in Llano!
Black’s Barbecue in Lockhart!
Franklin Barbecue in Austin!
Lambert’s BBQ in Austin!
Kreuz Market in Lockhart!
And my personal favorite: The City Market in Luling!
!
You just can’t beat those spots and they make every accessible BBQ restaurant in the panhandle seem
very Junior Varsity by comparison. My wife says that I’m a big pain in the backside when comes to this
rule, but I’m holding firm in my convictions.!
As we talked about Sunday, lets never let our faith in Christ become less than what it was designed to be.
Colossians 1:23 warns us to be stable and steadfast, to not shift from the gospel that we’ve heard. That
means we don’t settle for a morality based religion of trying to clean ourselves up for God - we trust that
he’s already done the washing (1 Corinthians 6:11) in his Son and we seek his forgiveness from sin and
look to him for strength to live in a holy manner. It also means that we never take anything besides God
himself and put it in the place of primary importance in our life. Money, sex, homes, cars, furniture,
vacations, friends, neighbors, alcohol, hobbies, careers, and notoriety all make for very poor gods. Yet, in
our foolishness, we often treat one or more of those things as if it were the most important thing in our
lives, and we move God out the highest place and reduce him to something less than ultimate. There is
no substitute for Christ - he is firstborn, preeminent, before all things, holding all things together, running
his church, making peace by the blood of his cross. !
