Memorial Day Road Trip

May 30, 2019

What happens when a Cajun girl marries a West Texas boy? You develop a love for a medium rare steak, brisket with a good smoke ring and an acquired taste for good BBQ. Saturday morning, Josh told us to be ready in 20 minutes because we were going on a road trip. We decided to add a stamp to our Texas Monthly top 50 book by trying the original Truth BBQ in Brenham.

Let me tell you, the hour wait was more than worth it! J waited in line for food while I waited in the car with the boys. We definitely ranked it in our top 5!

I am pretty picky when it comes to BBQ sauce, my father in law taught me how to make our family sauce recipe when J and I were dating. This girl right here has been making our own BBQ sauce for at least 12 years. Truth’s original recipe is good, but their tangy mustard sauce is AH-MAZING with their pulled pork!


We ended our trip with a trip to the Southern Flyer Diner and enjoyed some Blue Bell ice cream while we watched planes take off. Seriously, you have to stop here if you are in Brenham. Its a 50’s diner with a screened in back patio right on the runway of a small airport. My boys LOVED watching the planes take off! On our way home, we stopped by the Blue Bell Factory for some pictures and promised the boys that we would return on a weekday for a tour and a treat!
