Maybe because this phase of foodland is so familiar to me I'm a bit jaded, but there's little to nothing to learn in this article that hasn't been said in this site before, especially if you follow any of the Texas Meat Up threads. It's more about a superficial overview, sort of what is common in modern "journalism". The author even disclosed that she doesn't eat meat............hard to put much soul into writing about a subject you don't much care about (meaning the food part).
I thought it was interesting - especially the part about pricing. The prices are pretty ridiculous. The first time we went to Burnt Bean, one beef rib was $30, and they sold out fairly quickly. Sure, it was large enough for a couple meals, but that didn't include sides. Average folks can't eat at these places very often. Heck, i am so far above average the scale runs out and i wouldn't be able to eat at these places very often. OK, maybe that last statement was a little exaggerated. All of the places we went to were pretty expensive IMO.
One last observation - I went to Blacks and Terry Black's last trip. Terry Black's was head and shoulders better than Blacks.
