It is a very beautiful place, I am from Mexico and I was fortunate to work at Almant Plant and I lived there for a few months. The native people are very polite and respectful of foreigners. They helped us when they saw us carrying purchases from Walmart on the road. I would love to return!!! Greetings to all those beautiful people of Giddings Tx from Querétaro, Mexico.
@@TheDaytripper you need to do East Bernard, the Czech ladies at Holy Cross Church make great noodles.. check out Vincek's Smokehouse and the KOLACHE-KLOBASE FESTIVAL 6/8 at Riverside hall! There is a cool story about Bonnie and clyde at the Glory Bean Coffee company at the old bank you need to look into.
Close by Fedor was our Houston city slicker weekend property bought in 1961. Those were the good times. Still miss Schuberts road cafe on 290. Get the sausage at City Market.
Great video! My parents are from Serbin and Warda, and I'm Wendish! I also graduated from Concordia University but never knew they started in Giddings. I remember eating at the bbq place probably 60 years ago, and yes on the butcher paper!
It’s been 15 years since I’ve been there. I have eaten sausage all over Texas. But the City Market was the best. Heard it not the same anymore. But it was amazing. Checs
Wow, they didn't go to the Taqueria Guadalajara?! Missed opportunity! Suuuch tasty tacos, there is literally always a huge line. It isn't fancy though and wouldn't make for good TV I suppose, but we HAVE TO stop every time we pass through pretty regularly between Houston and Austin.
I really enjoyed this video. It was 1984 when my father and I visited Giddings, TX at the county fair showing some cattle. Don't remember much, but do recall the downtown area though. Need to go back for a day or two to visit and see what you saw.
Another great visit. Learned something new…this time the Wends. Must be really smart people as they settled in Texas instead of the Dakotas which also have large numbers of Czech and German immigrants.
My 5x great uncle started the town!! Went there with my dad 3 summers ago. My great uncle sent me this video last night. I know a little bit of the history. What up tootsie!!
Before I watch I just wanna say. YES! Really one of your best Chet. Treasures like the BBQ place, Miss Tootsie and the Wendish heritage. I really want to check this place out. Great work overall as well. The shots, editing and the interactions were all great. Top tier. Been watching your show since I saw it on Omaha public TV in 2016-17. Getting better all the time. Via Con Dios
MISS TOOTSIE SAID IT THE BEST "PUT A PELLET SET TEMPERATURE AND GO ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS" SHE AIN'T KIDDING BBQING IS CLOSE TO BEING A LOST ART UPON MANY OTHER THINGS THAT TAKES TIME TO CREATE AND OR MADTER.

My Barbecue Hero!
Preach on Miss Tootsie! She epitomises everything I feel about TX BBQ.

Great episode Chet. You have a great production team. Had a great chat with you and crew at the Brewhaus. Good to see it all turned out so well.

Giddings is where I grew up at! So nice to see your video and I'm impressed by the history and new places being shown. Hey G Town ❤
We used to pass through Giddings when we lived in Hallettsville! Great area!

Tootsie reminds me of my nanny that passed away in 1987. She seems like such a sweet lady.
