Pretty cool idea going 'round, reviewing all the classic BBQ joints.
Just ight ya know…just ight.
Jeremy – try the beef ribs next time.
When I was in college, we’d get a bunch of people together, roll a keg into Salt Lick, and get the all-you-can eat. It’s pretty mediocre for TX BBQ, but that was always a fun experience.
They are whack
Salt lick is WAY overrated for what it is. Good news is Hill Country BBQ can only go up from there.
"it's better than everywhere in Kentucky…"
Wow…!! I suspect you grew up in the Golden Triangle area (Lexington-Louisville-Cincy). Many from there don't realize there's more to the state than within that zone. Much better you say "everywhere I'VE BEEN in Kentucky". 😀
"I don't know what it is, why it's more fresh" – also has film crew actively filming 😉 hehehe <3 you guys!
I dont know. People can only use good atmosphere excuses for so long. They have to fix that brisket.
It looks like dirty white smoke from the pit. Idk.
They bake their meat first and finish it on the large grill. There's a few vids out that show that.
Wow, $49.00 mug mandatory to enter raffle for smoker. How about a big FU. Nice way to insult your followers. that's just sleazy.
Salt Lick bbq sauce is delicious and unique.
Joe is long-winded. He could say what he's trying to say with half the words.
Yooo. do you have any good suggestions for smoking ribs on a "normal" grill? I have this old school beer barrel, really thick metal, cut in half length wise. We've had a bunch of these in my family that my grandpa mad and my dad usually stacks a layer of coals along to front edge then cuts the racks in half and stacks them on the other edge and rotates the stack every one in a while. I was just curious if you had any tips/
Interesting review. Chicago sausage… wow I’m guessing the TX boys are cringing. NY deli… wow! These guys are rolling over in their graves. It’s interesting a review indeed! Trying to save the review at the end.
From a born and raised Texan, Salt Lick is consistently inconsistent and way over priced for the quality. It’s a fast food barbecue. If you’re gonna eat that go for Rudy’s is a heck of a lot better.
There's this small place many people have never heard of that makes the best & most authentic ribs in the world. Their signature BBQ is called the McRib
Salt lick is terrible
Been there, was not impressed at all with the food. Terry blacks is waayyy better.
I live about two miles away from The Salt Lick. I’m disappointed about your review but I know you’re spot on. But our out of town guests love it.
To me and the wife, this isn't much better than Dickies.
Jeremy do you have a video about cross flow vs reverse flow? I am about to buy 3 500 gallon tanks. I've learned a lot from Fat Stacks. I've made 55 gallon smoker/grills and I want to graduate. I don't want to sell them but I'd love to sell my BBQ. If you have a link to pro's and cons to cross and reverse flow I'd love to see it. I may have already seen yours but it was years ago. I may have just been doing research but now I am ready to pull the trigger.
Place is ass
Goldee’s bbq…
You experience lines up with mine… I was disappointed in their overall quality and flavor, but I am picky on my bbq, I prefer my own. If I do grab bbq out, it is typically at Kreuz market, their smoked sausage is amazing.
Salt Lick is not what it used to be. 20 years of being a Texas BBQ destination has turned it into a tourist trap.
Ok is the meat farther from the fire than it looks? Everytime I watch them on that I’m like why is that not burning up . Cause it’s a pretty stoked up fire lol
Look, honey! The kids found the Salt Lick!
The first time you guys eat there is was raining fairly heavily the weather effects my bbq you are the scientist what is your thoughts on weather effecting the flavor and texture of bbq
Like most BBQ places, Salt Lick is very inconsistent. I've had it be a 10/10 and had it be a 5/10. The only thing that is consistent is the sausage being consistently bad. It is just a bad recipe overall. The sauce, sides, atmosphere, and brisket keeps me coming back every summer.
Love th collab!
Been there once. It was underwhelming. So many places have unlocked the secret to great TX bbq that this place is now a historical relic
