They must have taken you a little out of Austin to Marble Falls, home of the Bluebonnet Cafe.

Nope, on this occasion it was a place up Guadalupe north of the campus, up near 50th or such. My memory is a little fuzzy as this was back in '79.

Though one barbecue joint stuck in my mind was kind of a log cabin looking place with big old picnic tables and a never ending buffet line of those big beef ribs, brisket and cornbread. I had a roommate from Reynosa who was the biggest Mexican I've ever seen. I still remember him sitting at one end of the table with a pile of beef ribs in front of him that he was working on. He'd have a rib in one hand, a jalapeno in the other, alternating bites form both, swigging a long neck Lone Star and only putting the food down to wipe the sweat off of his face from the heat of the peppers!
