Because I'm always looking for an opportunity to quit "workin' for the man", I happen to know the franchise here in Houston is for sale.
And generally speaking, while better than some places our Que in Houston is mediocre at best.
When I lived in Highland Village, there was a Dickey's in Flower Mound. Of course I had to try it, it was decent I thought and there was a smoker on site, smelled like smoke etc. That being said, I've never been to one outside of Texas. When I travel I always try and find the local que.
Speaking of chains/ Famous Daves. When I lived in Arizona there was one there that was a big supporter of competitions. Heck, we used to have brisket competitions on site. Cook them at home, slice them at their place and have judges judge. I always thought that they did pretty good que at that one.
Then a few months ago I was at the corporate office in Michigan for a meeting and they had Famous Daves cater. Below is the brisket pan, which the local office crew was chomping down on, you are free to draw your own conclusions.
I decided to eat the Mac and Cheese for Lunch....
