North Main BBQ

8/7/11 Euless, TX BEST BBQ IN D/FW. $17 for a three meat plate (to go) and worth every penny. I believe it's $15 for an all you can eat deal. Brisket is tender and smokey, ribs are fantastic so just eat 'em, and the sausage is pretty good as well. Don't take that as a bad thing, the sausage would be stellar at most places, but it can't comptete with sausage from central Texas. Regardless, the ribs and brisket would hold their own against the top 1%. It's that good. It should be on the register for historic places or something.
It's good to see the staff getting nice and surley too, like alot of good BBQ places, customer service just seems to go out the window. I say who cares. I'm not there for smiles and tea refills, I'm there for smoked meats, period.<-Period.

Sonny Bryan's Smokehouse

8/5/11 Las Colinas, TX There's a "Pig Out Platter" that's very tender and tasty. It's on special every Friday for $10 which is pretty good timing since you've been eating vegetables and Cheerios all week (yeah right).
On this last visit, I hit the 2 meat plate with brisket and ribs. The ribs were ok, but not worth getting again really. The brisket was good and tender, not much complexity to the taste, just good and tender. Recommend going with the Pig Out Platter. I don't really remember the sides too much, but I'm sure they were fine. This place is pretty good for a chain.
