Since the first part of my trip to Texas was all about Baby Mikey I figured I should post a little bit about the second part. Sadly, I left my camera in Texas where ALL my pictures are living for the next little while, but Ashley was kind enough email me a few pictures I could show our kids.
So here is to some GREAT Texas BBQ. Some may wonder if there is even such a thing as Texas BBQ but honestly, this was Awesome! Thanks to Brian and Ashley doing some research for Jared on what great places to eat at in Dallas, Texas. Jared had one request while visiting Texas...He wanted to eat, eat and eat some BBQ and Steak. That's it. So what did we do...we ate until we were all sick. Honestly, it was painful. But at the end of the day it was still delicious. This restaurant was called Hard 8 BBQ, you entered and literally just saw a giant metal pit of BBQ meat. You tell this BIG sweaty guy what kind of meat you want and how much, they plop it on a plastic tray lined with wax paper, weigh it then charge you. It's unreal. Then you walk through line and pick up all your sides. We had pretty much one of everything, and lets just say I will totally try and recreate their Jalapeno Creamed Corn. Random side dish but totally delish! YUM. From start to finish this was an A+ meal.
This here is a picture of the gate that enters the entrance to a highly secured neighborhood where Glenn Beck just moved in Westlake, Texas. We went here for my mom, my sister and a few other fellow Glenn Beck fans. We obviously couldn't enter, but I thought I'd snap a picture of two in honor of those who just adore him!
As soon as I get a few more pictures I will upload them and blog about them. But until then you will just have to wait!!! Despite the HEAT we really had such a wonderful trip. I can't wait for Brian and Ashley to return to Utah and visit us!
