Walker's can and does run out of food at the lunch service. I have been there at 1pm and there was no food left. You can avoid this problem by either going early or calling ahead with your order. Have a great time!

Thanks SV for this tip, as I prefer a late lunch.

Will keep you posted, PAZ on any field trips.

BTW, I once had smoked fresh salmon at Hillbilly that was truly out of this world. I wish he'd start doing that again.

For those of you that frequent Hillbilly, please report back on current offerings. The last 5 visits were not so satisfactory (very dry meat) & while I loved it for a long time, can't see going back for more dry que.
I'd really love to hear that things are back to normal.

I didn't see the requests to join us at Hillbilly's until aterwards. Sorry about that, but the only thing you really missed was our excellent company. :D

Maybe we can get together for another outing soon.

crrush doesn't think much of Walker's and she knows what she's talking about, but I wouldn't mind meeting out there just so I could say I've been.

After Walker's, I can only think of the little place across the side street from Corky's called Texas BBQ and Steakhouse, or something like that. I think that's about it for the area.

Once upon a time, Texas BBQ Co used to be Harold's Texas BBQ.
I worked in the area & would visit at least once a week... we're talking the old days . . . late 70s - early 80s.
It was very good back then. Talk was his son took over & changed the name to Texas BBQ.
Does anyone know if the same family owns this joint? I went a few times, but this was years ago.
No where even close.

Two nights ago, outside of Maple Leaf, a couple of guys were grilling on a barrel rig. I rolled down my window, but didn't smell a thing. I sailed on by.
I wish more late night drive by BBQ was available. The good stuff.

I'd like to go Walker's & from a strictly experiential point of view.
We'll keep you posted.
