Inspired by the highly anticipated “50 Best BBQ Joints” list of 2017, the specialty items featured in the BBQ Collection at the TM General Store have been curated by our editors with the hope that you will bring them along on adventures around the state and incorporate them into your homes and onto your tables where family and friends are gathered. Check out the TM General Store here.
Whether you are waiting in line at Snow’s (the number one joint on this year's list) or taking your to-go barbecue order to a park, this picnic blanket will be your trusted sidekick. You can even throw it over a table linen to jazz up your tablescape. Fort Lonesome, the iconic Texas-based chain stitch and embroidery company, created a custom Texas ‘cue patch to make this classic blanket even more special.

So many choices, so little time. This is what Texas Monthly’s own the Texanist dreamed up for a true Texas barbecue tee slogan, and he graciously agreed to try one on for size. We know Dorothy and her friends would approve.

These indigo denim waist aprons in two colors were inspired by ranch work wear from the early 1900s. The print on the fabric has been hand-drawn and screen-printed for a perfectly imperfect dot pattern. This apron is an easy style for home cooks and only improves with more wears and washings. McGuire Moorman Hospitality's creative director Ryan Smith designed this product and is the genius behind the smart and comfortable vibes at some of our favorite Austin spots like Elizabeth Street Cafe, Lamberts, and Jeffrey’s, to name just a few.
