The Ultimate Texas BBQ Pilgrimage:

No Texas barbecue road trip is complete without a stop at Snow's BBQ. Open only on Saturdays, Snow's has become one of the most legendary barbecue destinations in America, attracting devoted fans who begin lining up long before sunrise. On a recent Texas Monthly visit, the line was already fifty people deep by 4:45 a.m., with travelers arriving from places as far away as Scotland and Brazil just for the chance to experience this iconic Texas institution.

The heart and soul of Snow's is Tootsie Tomanetz, the ninety-year-old barbecue legend whose influence on Texas barbecue is unrivaled. Alongside owner Kerry Bexley and pitmaster Clay Cowgill, she continues to help produce the smoke-kissed brisket, meaty spareribs, and famous pork steaks that have made Snow's a perennial favorite on Texas Monthly's rankings, including previous #1 finishes in both 2008 and 2017.

What makes Snow's special isn't just the food. It's the atmosphere. Sitting outside before sunrise with fellow barbecue enthusiasts, swapping stories with travelers from around the world, and participating in a true Texas tradition creates an experience that feels more like a pilgrimage than a meal.

Why We're going:
Because Snow's isn't just one of the best BBQ joints in Texas, it's one of the most iconic food experiences in America.
