Rep. Joaquin Castro learned a very important life lesson the other day. It turns out the gun-toting, Bible-clinging Trump supporters in San Antonio don’t take kindly to a politician who disrespects their brisket.
The day after Castro published that hateful screed, thousands of Texans piled into their pickup trucks and drove to the nearest Bill Miller Bar-B-Q.
Social media reports flooded in showing massive drive-thru lines backing up onto busy streets. Hungry customers patiently waited in lines out the door.
Castro, D-Texas, recently published a list of President Trump's top San Antonio donors. He also doxed their places of employment.
“Their contributions are fueling a campaign of hate that labels Hispanic immigrants as ‘invaders’,” Castro wrote on Twitter.
One of the businesses the congressman targeted for political retribution was Bill Miller Bar-B-Q, one of the most popular brisket and sweet tea joints in San Antonio.
For those of you north of the Mason-Dixon line, eating brisket is something of a worship experience. I’ve heard stories from the Hill Country that some Baptist churches in those parts actually serve brisket and sweet tea for the Lord’s Supper.
Castro must have imagined thousands of San Antonians converging on the barbecue joints armed with torches and pitchforks, terrorizing customers in the drive-thru and staging boycotts. He must have dreamed about literally running the pit masters out of town.
But there are some rules about living in the Lone Star State. You go to church on Sunday. You don’t talk bad about somebody’s momma. And you don’t mess with the brisket.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott tweeted a photograph of a plate piled high with barbecue noting it was a “perfect night for @BillMillerBarBQ.”

This is Texas. The independent-minded “Republic” of Texas. How do weasels like Castro, D-Texas get enough votes to get elected???
I’m glad to see, that this Castro stunt appears to be backfiring big time.
If I were anywhere near San Antonio, I would go to that barbecue place.
What did the loon say that is insulting to brisket?
I’m sure he’s in a gerrymandered district, gerrymandered to lean Democrat. So as the Democrat running, he’s easily elected.
The castro bro's mama being a head of 'la raza' could, just could have been a factor.
I’ve eaten at Bill Miller BBQ. Next time down to San Antone it will be again. Eff Castro.
"The Chik-Fil-A effect."
Same thing happened to Chik fil a
Like Fidel Castro the two namesake brothers, Democrat, Castro siblings are nothing but human scum & vermin....just like Fidel Castro was...two very sick in the head puppies.
And In-n-Out.
Remember San Jacinto.
Every state had deep blue districts. Usually in decaying urban centers.

Tell Joaquin Castro that you don’t want him doxing/ harassing President Trump’s donors. Give him a taste of his own medicine:
- His personal cellphone: 210-801-1303
- His personal/secret email (possibly used for procuring male escorts): carlossebastiansanchez@gmail.com
Texas is turning blue...and not in a slow way. Cruz had a hard time winning against an overgrown teenager whose ideas would make Karl Marx proud.
Do believe WE ALL know the answer to that question!
The lot is nothing but cheaters, liars, and frauds (period)
If I were there, I might find out where he qnd his idiot brother lives and rump a few pounds of fow manure on their lawn...
‘m from San Antonio and hope to retire there. Bill Miller’s is an institution with multiple locations and pretty dang good barbque for a chain operation.
I think Castro probably messed up on this big time.
