Ok-- so its the typical "What restaurant" question... but with a twist....

Ditto on Slow Bone and Hard Eight.

If you're going to be in SW Fort Worth, check out Dave's Hot Chicken (Bryant Irvin & 20). Yes the "hot" is really hot. Add the cheese, and ask for more honey. Trust me, if it's too hot, add the honey.

Not a fan of Hard 8. Found it to be dry and bland. But maybe it was an off night for them. My top 3 in no particular order... Terry Black's BBQ, Hutchins BBQ, Cattleack BBQ.

Going to try Goldee's in two weeks to see if they deserve their lofty #1 ranking as the best BBQ in Texas.

Try First Chinese Barbecue in Richardson. The orange chicken is to die for, you'll never be able to eat anybody else's again. The deep fried pork chop with chinese broccolli is a personal favorite. It's cash only, though.

thx for the idea - i should go for a return visit to chk them out.
I don’t go out to eat very often but when I do one of my favorite places is Brasao Brazilian Steakhouse in Plano

Adding to Sir Lance's comment on Dayne's in Ft. Worth; their BBQ is great, but like Goldee's, they are only open Fri-Sat-Sun 11AM until sold out.

I was embarrassed there, about 2 years ago. I was driving, 2 people with me who eat fast food, typically, big portions at lower price points. We had been somewhere, forget where, and it was time to eat. Happened to be sort of near Chef Point, I suggested it, they went along.

We went in, got seated. My companions were taken aback by the menu prices, and viewed the portion sizes of those seated near us. They wanted to leave. They couldn't without my blessing, LOL.. My meal was delicious, they ordered Sodas only, choosing to stay hungry for another hour until I got them to Whataburger.

Our Waiter sensed something was amiss, but he played along.
