    I made my first visit to Truth in Houston this week, and they are truly special. I got a 3-meat plate (brisket point, ribs, and turkey) and two sides (collard greens and corn pudding). Though I am a hard sell when it comes to BBQ, it was honestly the best plate of BBQ I've ever eaten. The brisket was well rendered and perfectly seasoned. The ribs, with picture perfect bark, were delicious. The turkey was moist, buttery, and flavorful. And the collard greens and corn pudding passed the Alabama test with flying colors. And to top it off, the staff are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. One of the waiters told some regulars, "See you tomorrow." I wish I could have gone back with them. Leonard and the gang rock!

    Such a great video. Both of you understand how to break the cook down analytically, and pivoted on that new start up in Houston. I've eaten so much average BBQ commercially, and you can tell the pit master is stuck in his/her ways, and won't change/pivot to produce a better brisket. (What are you spritzing those briskets with?)

      hopefully someone will make an updated video about the new leroy and lewis location. if that happens I will, but right now it would just be me talking and I don't think that would make for a great video. also if you haven't, you can watch my 4 videos of walking with the new leroy and lewis and the other two videos of cooking with brad.

    • @duweydang
      @duweydang 3 месяца назад

      It seems they didn’t have enough airflow into the room for the pits which caused backflow. Hence the adding of windows. If he just screened the walls, there probably wouldnt have had those issues.
