Great update! I miss Texas and the brisket already!
Had to hit up a final brisket spot before I left last weekend. nowhere near as good as Terry Blacks, but the bone in pork belly was good

I tried Lone Star for the first time last week. It didn't/ did disappoint ???
Another great update @Broark, where I come from BBQ means rocking up to a mates house with 24 cans of Fosters and a box of frozen burgers

Bottle of Lone Star really ties that pic together
I can’t buy it in Alabama, so “when in Texas” right? Haha

Haha Lone Star is nostalgic for me, and usually only drink it at bars in texas while I’m there.
I unapologetically keep either PBR or High Life as my cheap beer around the house since, and lone star is a Pabst product so I’m guessing it’s pretty much the same recipe as PBR.. I’ve always thought the two were related at least.

Meant to post these pictures from yesterday last night, but wasn't feeling great.
Started my day off with some coffee and hanging out with Olive on the balcony.
Shout out to @sir_longshanks for the mug.
Olive looking out over her domain.
Went to run some errands, then grabbed a couple tacos at what I think is the best taco truck in Austin. It's called El Primo and it's just one dude slanging tacos. Cash only, no receipts, friendly service, the way it should be. He's been doing this for years (no idea how long, but I've been visiting for maybe 5 years now?) and it's always just been him cooking things up. Super friendly guy, he even remembers your order if you come around enough. In a time where things are changing drastically in the city it's refreshing to see someone stay true to what they love doing, even if it's as simple as a taco truck.
One pastor and one barbacoa is my go to.
Next up I swung by my local beer shop. It's a bit of a diamond in the rough, on the outside it looks like a normal convenience store / gas station but they get some good beer and they don't jack the prices up like some other shops. Sadly they hadn't received the beer I was on the hunt for, so I'll probably check back today.
Came home and took some photos of the jeans, I'm wearing them with my Tender Co. belt.
Ended the day with a nap in the jeans, Olive has taken a liking to them as have I.

I spy Yellow Rose at that beer store. Wouldn't mind getting that as a shelf beer. Any chance the jeans will be visiting Jester King?

Yellow Rose is seriously good stuff!

Is the beer store you mentioned the "flag store" at 45th @ Duval?
It's actually not, and some would say that Flag Store is one of the ones that does jack up prices!
It's a little place down south called Food Mart 2400, I live close to it and it looks like quite a dump from outside.
@Stropio:I spy Yellow Rose at that beer store. Wouldn't mind getting that as a shelf beer. Any chance the jeans will be visiting Jester King?
Yellow Rose has become more readily available and that makes me pretty happy. I will try to make it to Jester King one of these weekends, it's been awhile since I've been out there so I'm due for a visit.
