I’m up in Austin to work with Andy for a few days on the new stats system for WP.com. He found this BBQ place (Pokey Joe’s) that offers free wifi with their brisket, and I think I’m in heaven. What more could you want?!

Sounds messy!
Also check out Rudy’s BBQ, the “worst” in Texas.
If you can get to Taylor, the best BBQ in the area is Louis Mueller. Tough to find but GREAT BBQ (no sauce necessary). Rudy’s and County Line are considered two of the best, otherwise.
+1 for Rudy’s. Pick up some breakfast tacos for breakfast and then go back for a late lunch outside on the patio. Their meat is great without their ‘sause’ but it kicks it up a whole ‘nother level. Put the word out and I’m sure you could get an impromptu meetup going.
Me, I’d rather have pulled pork, but that’s just because I’m from Alabama, where we’re not huge fans of brisket. [But I like brisket and would buy you dinner, Matt.]
Go to the Salt Lick. Its down south in Hays county, but its all you can eat BBQ, and some of the best in Austin (or the state, depending on who you are). No wifi though, they country hicks.
I could ask for more power outlets and a wifi connection that doesn’t reset every two hours… but I guess it keeps the all-day types out. Bear Rock Cafe has continuous wifi and power outlets on every booth. It’s on Parmer, west of Mopac. I found it via Auscillate. Good sandwiches, or cookies and milk! 🙂
Ermm … what more could you ask for?
A BBQ-proof Mac?
You’re in Austin? I would like to meet the great Matt.
Let us know if you come back to Houston… lunch would be on me. 😉
Hope you are enjoying austin. As an Austinite I would like to say that I hope you are enjoying the city!
