Kreuz Bar-B-Q Cruise…

image

 

Two ingredients that fit together well as sugar and spice, are Hot rods and Bar-b-q. Over the last decade, I and few others have shared some very rememberable and flavorful times. Cold and Rainy days can damper most, but it often makes the fellowship that much better when combined with a steaming platter of brisket and sausage. The small group that gathered for the first Meathead run of 2015 to Kreuz Market Bar-b-q had a swell time. The Brisket was good, the sausage was excellent.

If you have an attachment to Bbq sauce or forks this may not be the place for you. The sour kraut and German potatoes were very good. It is for certain every central Texas Bbq establishment has its strong points and personality… Kreuz BBQ strong point… for me it was the sausage, kraut and potatoes…

Kreuz Market … Excellent service, and a great place to try, if you find yourself in Lockhart Texas.

The 13th Annual Lonestar Round Up

The 13th Annual Lonestar Round Up April 4th & 5th, 2014 Austin, Texas… is on the horizon folks. It has become one of the anchor hotrod and custom events in Texas… and in the world of custom car culture. There are several (opening mid. and closing) offspring events in the mix.  

The Thursday “Meat and Greet” BBQ is a great way to start the weekend. This taste of Texas has helped to solidify the resolve of many, to make the annual pilgrimage from across the globe.

Hope to see Y’all there…

Real charbroiled burgers over an open flame have a distinctive flavor and aroma, mixed with rumble of hotrods, custom and vintage cars can truly be intoxicating. Sprinkle that with automotive based fellowship and you begin to forget about the passage of time.

Some have the ability to capture these fleeting moments

Top Notch has film history, as the meeting point in “Dazed and Confused”. You never know who maybe in the booth next to you eating or hanging out these days, especially around ACL or SXSW.

In-between the big music and movie events of Austin Texas, in the small calm,  Top Notch is a refuge for the pavement pounding local hero in search of a taste of the past…

Meat is what’s for dinner…

Here in Austin TX … We have been blessed with the love of BBQ and Hotrods. A couple of my peers in the Hotrod and Custom car world have organized several events.  The following posters were created by the artful and tasty John Tullis … The Meatheads artwork is by … Jeff Norwell …

The events that we have participated in together have been historical to say the least … Most have been life events.   The Austin TX car community is filled with creative, tasty, colorful individuals.

When you’re in central Texas or the Texas Hill country, keep an eye out at you’re local BBQ joint or burger stand… You may see a flyer, with your next life event … In the print.
