The Best Barbecue in America
Forget apple pie. There's nothing more America - or more
mouthwatering - than a meal of pit-smoked pulled pork, sticky
ribs, or tender brisket. Here's where to go for an authentic
fix. By JJ Goode
Cooper's Old Time Pit Bar-B-Que, Llano, Texas
Cooper's engages in two practices that some consider
antithetical to the state's trademark style: direct-heat
cooking that's dangerously close to grilling, and saucing.
But this cowboy-style barbecue spot breaks the rules
proudly, cooking meat about two feet from mesquite coals and
then finishing it over low heat until you step up to the
outdoor pits and point to what you want: extra-thick pork
chops, sirloin, or beef ribs with Flintstones-esque bones
protruding from meat riddled with melted fat. It's all
charred, pepper-flecked, and insanely good.

"Cooper's comes closest to barbecue
nirvana than anyplace else"
|
True West
January/February 2007 |
"Unlike most Texas Barbecue
purveyors, Cooper's cooks 'cowboy style' with hot coals directly
under the meat; the dripping juices sizzle like mad, and the
smoke flavor is intense."..."The brisket was tasty...the pork
chops huge and gnarly (mini-roast size); the port ribs
falling-off-the-bone tender, with a peppery crust."
