In Austin, TX, so we of course we had to have BBQ! Salt Lick is featured on the Food Network and Travel Channel all the time for its amazing bbq, so we had to take a brief car ride to try it. It definitely did not disappoint. The place itself was pretty huge, though the amount of cars in the parking lot made us worry a little. But I guess everything is bigger in Texas, but they can accommodate that. We each got a Rancher (brisket, pork ribs, sausage, and turkey) plus Debbie, Susie and I shared a beef rib. We had considered doing all you can eat meat, which thankfully we did not do because this was so filling that we all had leftovers, and this was cheaper. Although even the AYCE wasn't expensive by NY standards. Of the meats, I think the pork ribs were my fav, closely followed by the sausage. A lot of people liked the sausage first. Honestly it was all delicious though, including the sides - cole slaw, which thankfully was not so mayo-y but vinegar based; potato salad, which also seemed less mayo-y, and delicious meaty beans. I want to go back already thinking about it.

| Giant beef rib - good but the pork rib was better |

| Peach and blueberry cobbler. Shockingly I liked the blueberry better. Not pictured - vanilla ice cream, which makes any dessert infinitely better |
