EDITORS TIPS

Parking: With only four spots, free street parking may also be found just west of the restaurant or on one of the nearby side streets.

Save Money: The best values come with the combo plates--the Big Tex feeds up to two or three people, and includes barbecued meats and any four large sides. Sandwiches are also popular and inexpensive, under $10.

The Extras: The restaurant also offers sizable sampler platter for larger groups. Off-site catering is available, and they can bring the impressive smoker to the venue.
