This is it! I have ruminated today two years of barbecue ruminations and commented on all the Top 5 of 2008. In all my carefully planned pilgrimages, midnight runs, business stopovers and quick fixes, City Market in Luling never had a bad day, never lacked for flavor or quality and never let me down. I’ve eaten inside and on the road; I’ve packed it out to the golf course, home 10 hours away and FedEx across the country. I’ve enjoyed it alone, with the preacher and even my mother. Far and away, City Market does it better than everyone else, every time and in every way. I never fear when I order, “Two hots, two ribs, two bread, half-pound brisket, some pickles.†Add to that two Sunkist and a sixty-cent cheese and there’s no better way to spend 30-minutes at the lunch table. Don’t listen to those yahoos at Yahoo who complain about the staff; the people who work at City Market are friendly and purpose-driven to serve customers. YOU spend all day in the only non-ventilated pit room in the Top 5 or separating out all the free beans. This isn’t some cookie-cutter bistro with a horde of co-ed wait staff trying to earn tips. These people live to cook the best, most consistently flavorful meat money can buy in the state of Texas. If I ever had to choose my last meal, it would be Central Texas barbecue- Luling, Texas- City Market- second booth from the pit entrance. Save me a seat.
