Our son lives in Austin. I made the pilgrimage to Franklin the first time we visited him. As good as it was, I wouldn't do it again because there are a bunch of other Q joints I want to hit in that area.
BTW - lour son sez most of the locals wait until after the crowd thins to go. You may not get exactly what you want every time, but whatever you get will be very good.

If not cooking outdoors, I am cooking on the stovetop with my 14" carbon steel wok, 12" CI skillet, or in the oven with my two Lodge CI pizza pans, or two dutch ovens. I've also got a nifty Lodge carbon steel grill pan that rocks for veggies outdoors.
luvthemstillers Thanks for taking me on a journey to a place I would love to try, but will likely never see in person. My wife would NEVER EVER wait in line 6 hours for food of any sort. She doesn't like waiting 15 minutes to be seated. I would have to do this trip without her...
Started this tasty craziness in 2018.
Using a Traeger Silverton pellet smoker.
Home is the Seattle area...
So much to learn, but it’s a helluva fun education!
Wow, just wow. HUGE thanks for sharing with us. This little vicarious trip to Franklin’s has me drooling and looking at flights.
Whoa, says that little voice, check-in with the other half and .... well, we’ll work it out! Thanks man!
this is cool! did you grow a whole pant size while you were there? i think i would need a nap between eating sessions and a bungee cord belt if i went there
