Wife and I finally made it to Franklin BBQ this past Tuesday. We arrived at 6:15 am and we’re first in line. Others started arriving at 6:30 and it was steady flow of people arriving. They provide you with chairs and the people in line are all like minded and we all had some great conversations it reminded me of tailgating at a game or concert. There was a couple in line from Nova Scotia that made the trek to Texas just to visit Franklin and Snow’s and another gentleman that game from London for the experience. The brisket was amazing along with the sausages and pork ribs. We were also able to get a tour of the pits etc. it was a awesome experience

Thanks for sharing pics. I would like to go there some day. Looks like the smokers are on the second floor. Must be a well engineered building.
 
That would be a good trip, for some good bbq.

I bet that room with all the smokers smelled wonderful

Always wanted to go to Texas for all the history,
and nice to see they let Nova Scotians in , lol

The wife and I had a great getaway down in Texas. We were too late to get food at Franklin’s, but thoroughly enjoyed all the people and food around the hill country. “Just don’t go in the summer” was what we heard a bunch! We did see an early Franklin smoker at the Yeti store…
