Killen’s BBQ

From the moment you walk in until the satisfied time you leave Killen's is life total perfection. Lining up and mentally drooling under the blackboard with all the delights and do watch for the easy to miss specials board on the floor to your left, chatting with the first chef who chops up your favorite bbq, sliced brisket or turkey or ribs and preps it to your specification and passes the dish to the second serving bay where sides are added - more decisions! Pay up and get drinks and then find a table and start your feast! I ordered a lb of sausages to go, two beef links and two pork links. Enjoyed fatty tender brisket, a short slab of ribs, fries, creamed corn and baked beans. Margaret had pulled pork and coke slaw. Just perfect! After our meal I wandered around back where I could see smoke rising and was lucky to have a tour of the smokers, 3 to 4 hours for ribs and breast, up to 14 hours for a butt. Smoke provided by a mix of oak, mesquite, pecan and a couple of other varieties! One of the best late lunch stops or early dinner stops at 3 pm when the queue and wait time is manageable! A must visit bbq spectacular!
