What is this? A meal on an Aircraft Carrier?
Couldn’t be, there’s protein on the plate
It’s the new barbecue place in town
The new barbecue place in town is a meme?
Yes
Can’t be. Meat isn’t blue enough.
No, I heard those meals need to be “steamed” 🤪
“We do things a little different around here.”
And then proceeds to do everything by the vanilla play book. Moreso for manbun burger places, but still works here.
“We do things a little different around here.”
Then proceeds to explain Tapas.
Or all you can eat with a tablet
Differently? Alright, what’s on tap?
“we serve coke products here, sir”
They charge differently maybe
The new BBQ place in my town
That is $300
My local BBQ place will do a full 3-meat (and sides) catering spread for 20 people for $350. If you’re paying $300 for 6 people, you’re getting ripped off.
Depends on which currency I suppose but probably not $300 in the one you were thinking
Just say the price you actually paid for that platter for 6 (judging by the hamburger buns) with those boiled looking brisket without a smoke ring.
Wouldn’t $300 in any currency still be $300?
Like 5 kilogram of any material is still 5 kilogram?
Sure you might have one block of steel and 250.000 grains of rice… But still 5 kilogram.
$ doesn’t tell you anything though. $ CAD != $ AUD != $ USD. Grams have an agreed upon global meaning.
Either way, they should tell us the currency.
Edit: In Toronto, this is a common price for this quantity (1/2lb), in CAD.
That’ll be $200 please and thank you.
Lol. Very original bro.
Self five.
The way those rolls were laying i thought it was just an entire loaf of challah bread.
I’d love to see their “smoker”. Zero smoke rings on anything in this picture and that pulled pork looks like crock pot pulled pork.
That brisket is a crime against humanity.
You know how sometimes you can watch a food ad and taste the food they’re selling? This is like that, but I can taste the bag they reheated it in.

Mmmhhmmmmm
YUM
Nice sly reference to the company owning several well-known restaurant chains.
Yum! Brands, Inc. (sometimes called just Yum!) is an American multinational fast food corporation. Based in Louisville, Kentucky, the company operates KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, Habit Burger & Grill, and several technology companies. Yum! is one of the world’s largest fast food restaurant companies in terms of system units. In 2016, Yum! had 43,617 restaurants, including 2,859 that were company-owned and 40,758 that were franchised, in 135 nations and territories worldwide.
2016? Guess Wikipedia hasn’t updated this one in a while.
They might not be updating their marketing materials.
I hear their tacos will change your life.
Yum! used to be Pepsi’s fast food division.
It’s been ages since I’ve set foot in a bbq restaurant because of this.
*equips cane, glasses, and supplemental O2 tank*
Back in my day, an entree in these places wouldn’t break the bank, and would send you home with leftovers every time.
Can y’all stop using the word entree to mean main course rather than appetizer? It has the same root as entry for a reason lol, it comes before the main course. The English word is just “main course”.
Entree is common Anglo parlance for the main meal. Shut up, pedant.
TIL! As a French speaker I would have gotten them mixed up if it wasn’t for you guys’ lil discussion here
Yeah maybe a historian can comment on how it got switched in English.
It’s what we call a “false friend”.
I had an outree for dessert.
Ah yes the three item meal plus one other thing.
This is what Mission BBQ is like, but add in the guilt trip to buy a $3 plastic drink cup “for the troops”. And the barbecue is not good. It’s not inedible or anything, it’s just that everything (including the sides) is loaded with sugar.
I had Mission BBQ onboard the US Ship Truman and did not pay anything so if you bought a cup thanks for your service. Like and unlike the Lincoln the total deployment time was 7 months with 2 port visits and in the gulf Arabian Sea the supply chain isnt always the most efficient.
I didn’t buy a cup FWIW. I assumed you guys were paid from the US military budget and hence from my taxes, not from Mission BBQ plastic cups.
Do the same for tips.
24 dollars? What? Does that come with a hand-job?
Yes, but it’s not applied to your equipment, but rather your wallet.
Briskit is $40/lb at the last bbq place I went.
It’s spelled Brexit
Where are you getting $24 handjobs?
Hey, I heard you have $24…
And it’s burning a hole in my pocket
It’s a quick handy, gotta maximize profits. A little rugburn is inevitable.
That’s actually the VD
From a handy?
Your mom
Finally, a career that I can excel at
Rudy’s menu near me. 2.50 more for “moist”.
Always splurge for moist.
If you’re splurging and it’s not moist, you need to hydrate more
They are two different parts of the brisket. The “moist” is from the point which is fattier than the “lean” flat.
MOIST!
Please tell me this is a backyard starship reference. I need to know there are other people out there that like this series too.
Yea, lemme get some dry brisket, because it’s good that way…
Rudy’s is good in a pinch but way better options across TX.
A half pound of coked ribs? That’s like 2 ribs.
I was about to grumble, but then I saw $3.49 for Cole slaw and can only believe this is a joke.
Depends ribs of what. Chicken ribs, you get lots of ribs. Beef ribs, only part of one. For babies, I guess it depends.
Good point! 8 oz of snake ribs? Like 800 ribs!
Sorry, I brought my own
Oh if that’s what’s being served at $25 I’d wonder if I’m trapped on the Abraham Lincoln and just dissociating/imagining my daily life.
Pickles? In this economy?
I feel bad for people that don’t have access to good Barbecue.
As someone who lives in 1 of those areas and visited Texas once 3 years ago I agree… I never had bbq ever like that before. Thats all we did for 3 days straight, bbq, brewery, bbq, brewery, concert festival at night. Best trip I had in a long time.
Texas has the shittiest fucking barbecue. To the point where they shouldn’t even be fucking calling it barbecue it’s fucking garbage. If someone asked if you want barbecue in Texas, you should expect a fucking sausage on a tortilla. Fucking trash.
You are definitely wrong. La BBQ was one of the best meals of my life and then they ended up getting a Michelin star. There are other Austin places like Moreno’s that are also amazing. Any time I visit I go straight to BBQ places.
Well whatever we had was worlds better than my states crap. Just curious if Texas bbq is that bad what bbq is the best in your eyes?
I have direct access and make it myself, you might find some better but way cheaper from ho,e
That’s like 16 Costco hotdog meals.
More like 15 here, sales tax sucks in WA
10.4% last I checked. Nice and regressive.
It’s somewhat made up for by there being no state income tax, but it is still among the highest sales tax rates
Yeah it’s great for people making six figures and not cashing in over $278k/yr. in long term capital gains
10.55% combined state + county + city in Seattle.
I hope you don’t like schools or an educated population
Sales tax is regressive.
Affording beef, in this economy? Fancy.
There haven’t been a ton of bright spots moving back here to the south, but plenty of good bbq places is one of them.
