German Guy Tries TEXAS BBQ for the FIRST TIME! (Brisket, Ribs, Potato Salad & More)

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 มิ.ย. 2024
- German husband tries Texas BBQ & Brisket for the first time! We couldn't make our way to Texas this time in the US, so we thought we'd try some Texas BBQ from an award winning Texas pitmaster in Charleston, SC! It's the closest thing we can get to Texas BBQ while here on the east coast. Hopefully next time we are in the US we can make our way over to Texas! In your opinion, which city/area makes the best BBQ? *We made a typo in the video. It's definitely a beef brisket and not pork brisket sandwich.

Hey! Check out our new video, TEXAS BBQ vs CAROLINA BBQ: th-cam.com/video/mh_Qib0vgFE/w-d-xo.html
Which one is better?
Mayonnaise base potato salad with a bit of mustard, please.
@@6stringgunner511 I like a vinegar based version myself, but that's hard to find around here. I can get a canned "German potato salad" at some groceries, but it;s getting hard to find. There was what appeard to be some corned beef pit in it as well. Good stuff, even if it was canned!
@@WCM1945
Sounds good.
The times they are a changing. This young generation don't appreciate potato salad and such. They ONLY want pizza, burgers, subs, fastfood restaurant types.
My local grocery stores don't carry the 4 bean salads anymore. Sales are way down and the stores won't bother putting it on the shelf.
Have a great weekend, Bill. Be safe out there.
Being as I was raised and have lived 58 years in North Carolina, I'm going to say that Lexington, NC has the biggest following but I lived most of my years in Burlington so Hursey's & Huey's are my favorite! BBQ and Textiles is what Burlington is know for and I worked at both types of establishments!
Ribs. Brisket. Chicken. & Potato Salad
#Classic 🇺🇸
"That just takes up space that could be filled with more ribs."
Don't let the accent fool ya, that was one of the most American comments ever.
Look at that, Ordnung can even be applied to BBQ🤣
At 9:15 for anyone wanting to go to it. I was hoping it would be timestamped somewhere, but I guess that is on me at this point.
And people wonder why we're all fat over here. With food this good, how could we not?
Legit American comment! More ribs. All the ribs. Ribs Ribs Ribs! Aaaaannddd brisket! 😂😂😂
@@Jeremiah90526 the lords work.
Deana, " You have it on your Face". Phil, "I know, I am saving it". That sounds like a true BBQ eater.
He's a ringer. He already knows how to do it
True
Accurate.
Absolutely!
That’s what she said
As a Texan I would say BBQ is something you would never eat in your car. You should spread out on a table and splash around in it!
Well that's a little much lol
COVID has ruined all the fun.
Haha! Well said
Right...swimmmm in that stuff...TEXAS❤️❤️❤️ LOVE OUR BBQ 😋
Amen! As a fellow Texan it has to be eaten in the restaurant
I remember when I lived in Germany introducing some of the locals to proper barbecue (I'm from Texas), and getting basically this same reaction. It's a good feeling. I hope they had the same feeling introducing me to German food, which I was a huge fan of.
P.S. Cornbread pudding isn't a big thing in Texas. We like our cornbread solid. Preferably with chili.
If there's anything that can unite humanity, food is one such thing. XD

When you guys do manage to get to Texas, keep in mind that there's a HUGE German immigrant population in Texas, many of whom speak their own dialect of German even today!
New Braunfels, as well as the Czech communities. My aunt grew up in West speaking only Czech.
True
Central and Northern (Germanic) immigrants came into Galveston in the 1830s, enduring another month at sea instead of lands in Charleston, SC. Those immigrants were told to 'head west' and the Central Texas maps are full of Fredericksburgs, Gruensvalds, etc for about 300 miles west of Galveston.
From Houston, get on I-10 heading toward San Antonio. You'll hit Luling, Schulenberg, then north to Lockhart. You really don't need to go anywhere else.
u mean the armish? they have a weird combo of german, netherlands and english dialect
go to the Hill Country area of Texas for many German communities including Fredericksburg. for bbq I'd go to the Salt Lick in Driftwood or Lockhart, Texas. I'm from Austin and there's plenty of options here too. Central Texas has a huge German and also Czech population.
South Side Market in Elgin is where it’s at my family has been eating there since I was a little kid
New Braunfels, Wurstfest!!! That little town was crazy for a few days.
Being from Austin. Have you tried gourdoughs?
Yes! This! ^^^^^^ by the way... I've never heard of that corn pudding thing before and I have lived in texas my whole life.
@@jeremyscaggs7315 yes i have quite a few times. i had them the first year they started as a tiny trailer on 1st street. now they got a few locations around town. pretty legit stuff
Lifelong Texan here, and that is some legit Texas BBQ. I'm kinda surprised, because NC has a really strong BBQ game (I used to spend a lot of time in Raleigh/RTP), but the purist in me is bummed that you put a vinegar based sauce on that sandwich. Don't get me wrong...I'd eat that every day of the week. But for your first experience with Texas BBQ, putting a vinegar based sauce on that brisket sandwich is a fusion.
i grew up in nc also, but live in the western part of our country now. what a difference in the foods, especially "BBQ"
Every region has its thing, and as someone from Nebraska, every one of them is equally good in its own way. But yeah, when you're going for a specific regional flavor first-time, not the best to mix it up.

But, he's new at this, we can cut him a break.
Which you don't have to be in Texas to experience.

And their vinegar based sauce,No Thank You,and don't put my coleslaw on the meat On my bun,I like my coleslaw seperate
Love his reaction to the bbq. Usually pretty similar whenever new people try pretty much Amy southern bbq. I like mustard potato salad the most. And funny thing, years ago, was up on part of the pacific crest trail, doing some back packing with friends, we were probably 15 miles up the trail, we hiked up the night before. Making breakfast and a bunch of through hikers were going by, they were commenting on how good it smelled, we had bacon and sausage cooking, making fried and scrambled eggs, toast by the coals. Had some beans going too. Good old percolator coffee, told them to come grab some of they wanted, a lot of them were Europeans, one of them was a German guy, he was hilarious and so excited. We just kept throwing on more food, got all our percolators going. Probably fed like 20 people besides us. They were surprised we had that much, then they looked at our packs, big old ones, military surplus, 3 of us are Vets, our packs were all about 105lbs, haha.
Cool story! I like meeting people in accidental ways. I’ve made some good friends that way!
Texan here and I was shocked that y'all didn't have some dessert with your BBQ. Specifically, some great peach cobbler. Perhaps next time! :)
Stop talking
You're making me hungry
Must be pecan pie!
Or Cherry!
@jay west yes!!!
More like pecan pie covered in Blue Bell ice cream
As a former resident of Texas, and lover of everything bbq, i've sat here watching y'all enjoy the food with the biggest smile and warmest heart. Blessings and good health to you both!
I’m from Oklahoma & I agree with you. This guy is fun to watch
former?
traitor
I'm from northern Europe, moved to Texas almost a decade ago.. and my reaction was almost exactly the same. People can hate on Texas for all sorts of things if they like, but man oh man do they know BBQ. They're not the only state to know their BBQ, but they're up there in the top three easily. Holy crap it blew me away, especially the pork ribs.
Only nasty people full of envy hate on Texas
@@Dakotako No, we just don't like what they are doing to this country. Bunch of greedy selfish aholes seem to come, and speak on behalf of, Texans.
You do realize you can get good BBQ outside of TexASS I hope! Wouldn't live there if someone paid me. Too corrupt.
@@jaelynn7575 And what is it that we are doing to this country? Most of us don’t care about the modern US nor want to be a part of it but we aren’t actively trying to sabotage it. I love how you took a light hearted joke and proved it true, lol.
@@jaelynn7575 The bigger cities in Texas are full of Californians these days.
Be careful. once you make it here to Texas, you'll never want to leave.
That said, if and when you do make it here, come to south texas, the area we call 'The Hill Country'. There's a large german tradition that meshes REALLY well with the barbecue.
Wash that meal down with some Shiner Bock from the Spoetzl brewery in Shiner TX! 👍 There's your German Texas influence. Flavorful, goes with whatever you're eating or by itself.
Texas, the land of fascist politicians and racists.

Stay mad, kid.
@@jaelynn7575 I take it from California, the land of bums and communists.
Im a Texan and that looks like legit TxBBQ. The brisket sandwich however needs onion and pickles to kick it up a notch.
and mustard, and a little sauce
As Texans, my brother and I feel it isn't barbecue without pickles and onions.
Should go to New Braunfels.
Testify sister. Although for true Texas barbeque, you have to got to Texas. I've been stranded in NJ for about 12 years now, originally from Corpus on the Gulf Coast. There was a fella here that had spent 20+ years in Luling or Lufkin (some "L" town) and honed his talent as a grill master. Made a pilgrimage to Texas a couple times a year to bring back Mesquite (the true secret to a proper Texas brisket). The only thing that I could pick out as wrong was that he used sweet Italian sausage. It tasted amazing smoked by mesquite, but it wasn't the flavor I grew up with. The point is, no matter where you go, regional differences will shade what you grew up with, that's also why I can't get a proper breakfast taco in Jersey. Sadly Boyd's barbeque business folded less than a year after he opened it. Quick plug for Joe Cotton's in Robstown,TX. The only part of your meal served in dishware is beans, and potato salad. With plenty of pickles and onions.
Pickles and onion on the side please.. Extra meat !
Y’all definitely need to come to Texas to have true Texas bbq! Also the meal has to end with either banana pudding or cobbler! Love y’all! 🤗
yesssss cobbler
One of the best things about Texas is that they know how to feed you there. Good food and lots of it
Not sure how an imaginary line makes food taste better. Lewis is from Austin and was partners with Franklin BBQ. Started this place in Charleston. Other than sauce types, there is no difference in smoke.
Pecan pie and dino ribs
I've never seen "corn pudding" in Texas. You're right that banana pudding or peach cobbler would be more representative of the type of dessert that you'd find at a Texan barbeque restaurant. Oh, and I almost forgot about the pecan pie!
As a German born American (born in Landstuhl) its great to see you enjoyed the food. South Carolina is where my family originate from.
"Check how clean my bone is."
No sir, I'm not falling for that again.

...Just take your thumbs up and get out of here
You mean you got a dirty one last time?
Brisket is my favorite and no, we didn’t take sausages to school. I grew up in Houston and now live in The Woodlands, TX. My husband and I lived in Germany for six years and LOVED it!
What's his is hers, M GTOW
I lived on Pasadena when I was younger, now I live in Conroe
After watching this video, I now have an urge to go to Pappas BBQ for some brisket and ribs.
They need to just come here and go to Franklins
Anyone have a car for sale ...affordable for a Tx Vet maybe monthly payments..
6:38 "If you know me, you know I love a good potato..." - of course you do! Doesn't every German love a good potato? I definetively do! ^^
8:10 This question puts me in a dilemma somehow. The recipe for a classic potato-salad taught to me by both my mum and grandma use both. At least here our area slightly east of Cologne vinegar is used as well as mayonaise for the recipe (much more mayo, but vinegar clearly is a strong tasting ingredient). I've learned to fill the bowl in layers putting one layer of sliced cooked potato first, then adding a bit of salt, sprinkling this with some drops of vinegar and then smoothing the layer with a gentle scoop of (self made) mayonaise. After that on to the next layer and repeat untill your bowl is filled.
Additionally you may add in cut up hardboiled eggs and one or two chopped onions throughout the process. Best practice is to let it sit in the fridge for a few hours to spread the flavors after finishing.
Have a go at this, if you want to know how a traditional "Bergischer Kartoffelsalat" tastes ;-)
Deana's lucky she got any of that food. Phil looked like he was gonna go HAM on the whole order.
My girlfriend (German) and myself (American) LOVE your channel! In this one, you said to comment below if we liked this specific kind of content, and I really wanted to come and say our favorite videos of yours arw where one or the other tries a cultural or local food or do the grocery store finds. Food unites us all, ya know? Anyway, thank you so much for the content. We've been watching your channel since we started dating (almost a year now)!
Ahh thanks so much for your kind words! Yes, food is the universal language! 😍 Congrats on your almost anniversary!! 💜🎉
At one time the 3 largest immigrant groups in the US were #1 German #2 Polish and #3 Italian. Germans were some of the earliest immigrant groups, many have been here for 10 generations so they have made a big contribution to US culture. In my state, Wisconsin we have a high proportion of German descendants. In my town at one time we had 4 German and 1 Dutch newspapers, but no English paper!
@@DeanaandPhil What's yours is mine... I love it. Where/how did you meet? Oh, I see you are married, how sweet.
As a Texan I am very confused at "pork brisket". No. Brisket is beef. Also, Carolina BBQ is very different than Texan BBQ, so I am glad you found someone doing BBQ properly in the Carolinas.
I said the same thing. Pork Brisket???
N.Carolina vinegar based sauce…not bad, S.Carolina mustard based sauce totally sucks IMO…and I live in Columbia (Maurice’s gourmet BBQ) 😂🤣🤢🤮!
Even if pork had a brisket, it would not be the same.
Lol the first time I had "pork brisket" was here in TX. I have no problem calling it that since it comes from the same area of the animal. That said, you'll never hear me say "beef brisket." It's just brisket.
@Sharon Bee no it's not the shoulder I've cooked a ton of those. The only place I've heard of it is at a restaurant called Whiskey Cake in Plano. If you google their menu you'll see it on there.
You both crack me up...especially how animated you are with your facial expressions! I really enjoy your videos.
Loved that you start the vid with an excerpt of your reaction to the food. Saved me 12min of watching what I assume is just a build-up :)
You can’t lose with any type of bbq but ribs are definitely my fav! Pork are great but beef ribs are 20 out of 10 in my book😁
Ohh yum! I'll have to try some beef ribs sometime! 🤤 They just ran out an hour before we arrived! 😭
@@DeanaandPhil and especially with a great bbq sauce!!
I agree! Beef ribs for the win!
Beef ribs are basically just good for making stock. Most BBQ places won't even sell them.
@@kurtjohnson4816 wow I’ve had fabulous beef ribs! I’ve even made them myself and they are fantastic!
Vinegar Based. That's how my family does it. We're a german/romanian family and we really enjoy our potato salad with scallions/onions, raddish and egg.
It isn't potato salad without eggs
@@chadfalardeau5396 Yes. And I like it with vinegar and without vinegar.
That looks absolutely mouth-watering! I love seeing Phil's reactions!
Texas man here and am happy you enjoyed this.
I love the home style BBQ here.
Also, spent a good bit of time at Bragg and loved hunting up those mom and pop BBQ places in N.C.
I still have dreams of an amazing pulled pork sandwich I had there.
The main thing I missed when we lived in North Carolina, was Texas BBQ. I couldn't wait to come back home (a Texan who knows proper BBQ).
As a North Carolinian, one thing I missed in Texas was North Carolina whole hog cooked in a hog drum with vinegar based pepper sauce as opposed to Texan beef brisket and pork shoulder. A North Carolinian culinary graduate and veteran chef who knows proper whole hog barbecue and likewise has respect for The entire difference of beef barbecue and the techniques / seasonings being equally real. You can prefer Texas because it’s your OG but don’t be disrespectin my home on that ‘it’s not the real barbecue’ bullshit when ENC bbq is literally the original original American barbecue now 😂😂 all love man, we’re all different and all just as good.
@@gregmax1321 Spent most of my life in the Piedmont area of NC. There's a few BBQ places around there. 😁 I'm in ENC now so I'm looking forward to checking out some of the region's best. I'm open for suggestions.
@@gregmax1321 - Well, let's not get our panties in a bunch. The debate over "original BBQ" rages on and we won't be solving it here. Now that you mention it, it's that vinegar crap I couldn't tolerate. Whole hog? Yes. Pickle brine and fermented foods? Yes. Vinegar comingling with BBQ? Hell no. You like what you like, and I respect that, but Imma keep my slow smoke without vinegar.
@@gregmax1321 "If it ain't pig, it ain't Que!"
@@robdumond2634 Barbecue originated in SC not NC anyway! Paris Island to be specific! As a chef, he should know that!
Any time I go to Texas, my first meal includes brisket. Dang, I just love the way those good folks prepare brisket. Their beef ribs are my second favorite. Taking bites of side dishes, beans and cole slaw, give me a break from devouring that delicious meat. So, so good!
Texan here.
“Vinegar-based potato salad” is a phrase that has never either met my ears, nor left my mouth.
It’s a Carolina thing. All BBQ related items have vinegar here.
German potato salad is kind of gross. I would eat if I was starving though.
I love to see people try American culture you two are really chill go luck
Growing up, I never even knew there was any other kind of BBQ until I traveled outside of Texas. Some places, BBQ just means a cookout and not any specially cooked meat, as in "we'll go to the beach and have a BBQ.", and they eat hot dogs and plain hamburgers.
German In Venice Channel
Yup in Texas barbecue is its own beast. And God-bless it all.
We don’t do that grill stuff up in Missouri, either. Smoked ribs are king up here… but we certainly will not turn down a good brisket 🤤
That's grilling. Crazy they call grilling BBQ in California... 😂
@@dadsquatch79 That seems to be the trend in places not settled by Southerners.
Pork ribs are my favorite over beef ribs. Beef is still amazing, but I just like pork more.
You’re obviously not from Texas.
@@UltraViolent21 don't matter. PORK over beef ANY DAY. And rather have South Carolina BBQ then any other. Though I do loooovvvvvvveeeeee some brisket
I agree. Beef ribs always feel like too much bone not enough meat. You get a big giant rib and hardly take a proper bite before hitting bone it seems sometimes. Pork ribs at least don’t oversell and under deliver for me.
Texan here and pork ribs are better, texture wise and flavor retention they just are a notch above beef ribs.
My favorite though is brisket by a mile when it comes to smoked meat and tbh I'm not a fan of really any of the so called Texas sausages, I'll take a nice sausage with jalapeno over all the other odd types.
my mother always made the German Potato salad and I learned to make it, when i make it for picnics etc, here in the south they are amazed by it.
Ok, it's the middle of the night, I'm binge-watching videos about American BBQ, and I am sooooo hungry!!! Thanks for this, and I'm sorry you had to eat it in the car (stupid COVID), because I wanted to see the inside of the place. GOOD VIDEO! I am ridiculously hungry. Arrrrghhhh.
In Texas, the potato salad has mustard in it which gives it the tanginess of vinegar potato salad as well as a pale yellow hue. You might like it better than the mayo ones back east.
Mayo potato salad is just gross 🤣
In the south we use mustard and mayonnaise
@@Casey28027 That's the way my mother taught me to make it. A little vinegar and mustard to give it some tang and then sweet pickles and red onion to give it some sweetness.
@@TXKafir we make ours with celery, onions if people want onions. Eggs, mustard, mayonnaise and a little vinegar.
I´m so jealous. I tried Southern food in Tennesse. Awesome.Need this in Germany.
Was stationed in Germany for over 6 years, first time going into a butcher shop and asked for ribs, they thought I was nuts. They actually gave me 15 kg of ribs. Had some left and took him a sample, big mistake I had to pay for them after that!
Memphis barbecued pork ribs are still my favorite
Come on down to Mississippi and eat some shrimp and grits or black skillet fried chicken!
My German grandmother put mayonnaise and mustard a little more of the mustard in her potatoe salad and diced potatoes with shallots and sometimes fresh dill weed.
Phil HAS to try mustard potato salad! I'm from South Texas originally but central Texas introduced me to the mustard potato salad. Each of the five regions of Texas has different versions of what y'all are trying. Just like Texas chili has five main types and several versions of the main types. I'm SO happy y'all got to try the BBQ! My day is completely made! Thank you!!!
What is your favorite BBQ dish? 🥩🍖🌽🥬

My faves are beef brisket and spicy sausages (Louisiana style), and I prefer mayo based potato salad. That green chile corn pudding looks and sounds amazing, as does the mac & cheese. My fiancé and I always enjoy your vids.
This is for Deana, and has nothing to do with the topic, but imo, your hair so lush and fabulous it deserves it's own TH-cam channel! If you don't mind sharing, what hair products do you use? (I did answer the bbq questions separately). Thanks for your always entertaining vids.
Try to go back when they have the beef ribs!!
There is nothing better in my opinion than American BBQ... he said "Dibs." he is pretty Americanized, that was great.
My mom side of the family is german, moved to Milwaukee in 1840's. I have a recipe for german potato salad over 120 years old! It's great, when I get time to make it. Great video!
First time viewer, lifetime subscriber! Y'all are so cute! Love from Texas!!!!
I love it when out-of-towners come to the United States and try some of our indigenous Foods. Ninety-nine percent of the time when they try BBQ for the first time he usually doesn't matter where it came from because they're always Blown Away by it. That's the crazy thing about our barbecue no matter where in the United States you go it is always always always going to be really good. And for all of you out-of-towners just know that Famous Dave's is the McDonald's of the barbecue world. You're guaranteed a mediocre product no matter where in the US you go.
Preach on!
Famous Dave’s is a terrible waste of meat. They should be burned for heresy.
Figuratively speaking, of course.
Damn straight. Gotta find a pit that looks like the pits, and has about 100 cars lined up outside.
BBQ is the flagship of American food
They need to come down to Loo-z-Anna during crawfish season. My Aunt moved to Georgia and called my mom wanting some boiled crawfish. We got a couple of sacks, a pot and some Tony's and drove to her. She invited some friends over and most were to grossed out to eat them because why eat something they find in their ditches. She had a big neighbor, both tall and wide, eat one crawfish and drink one beer, and that was with every crawfish. The next year we did it again and she had her back yard full of people. And the big guy was the first in line and he was the last one to leave the table.
Thats why I love SE Texas.
Suckin heads and pinchin tails
@@michaelmabrey6969
That is a Loo-z-Anna thing and although I am from Loo-z-Anna and proud of it, I can't seem to do it just because I don't want to admit to myself that I enjoy suckin' heads.
@AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL FOREVER
You ever eat one? Crayfish are the little bugs you find in your ditches. A crawfish is larger, has a harder shell and larger pinchers. Don't think I'd say something is gross before I at least smelled it. Tony's seasoning mix is a must if you want to boil a good pot of crawfish. Something I like to do is whenever I eat fries at home is mix a little Tony's in with my ketchup. Gives it that extra kick missing from plain ketchup. Just don't mix too much Tony's in.
I am Texan now living on an island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean (due to family) and how I miss Texas!! Watching this took me straight back.......how I wish I could return!
I'm currently sixty years old and am a born and raised Texan. I'm also a former chef and chef instructor.
As far as potato salad and coleslaw go I'm with you guys. I like a vinegar based dressing for both. Although I have had some good mayonnaise based ones of both slaw and potato salad. I find that the vinegar based dressing is much better not just for the fresher taste it gives in your mouth. But it also accentuates the other flavors of each of those iconic Texas BBQ dishes. Not to mention that the vinegar based version of both don't need to be kept cool at picknicks and cookouts like the mayonnaise based versions do because of how easily harmful bacteria can grow in room temp mayonnaise based foods. Plus the vinegar is much more healthy and less fattening than the Mayo.
I've seen many people get sick at BBQs and picknicks because they didn't know to stay away from the left out Mayo versions of either dish.
My wife's aunt passed on here version of vinegar based jalapeno coleslaw. And it's really very good. But not the least bit hot. Just a little extra zing from the flavor of the jalapenos.
I think the 'corn pudding' is either the owner's or chef's choice. I lived in Texas and never heard of that kind of pudding. You should try a Pulled Pork sandwich with cole slaw. BBQ Chicken is amazing too. I don't know how popular American vegetables are in Germany. Fried Okra, Fried Squash, Steamed Collard Greens with chunks of pork, and baked beans are.
Pork jowls in a bean soup are fantastic. Put it in a pressure cooker and 2 hours later you got some good eats with rice.
I had never heard of that putting stuff either I thought for sure it was going to be coleslaw or baked beans as a side dish.
I love corn pudding, or as we call it “scalloped corn” … best recipe is: can of corn (don’t drain it), can of creamed corn, box of jiffy cornbread mix, container of plain yogurt, and a half stick of butter (or a bit less). Shake in some black pepper and mix it all up in one bowl-- and bake ! That’s it! (If you use an 8x8 pan, bake 350 degrees for about 45 minutes)
It’s a little sweet (was a childhood favorite so I didn’t mind sweet), you can add some peppers or green onions or a can of green chilis if ya want, but that basic recipe was MY JAM. I could eat a lot of it!
((BTW; The basic recipe calls for a whole stick of butter but that’s a little too much I think, too greasy or rich or something!, and sour cream instead of yogurt. But I really like the “tang” from yogurt!
A Texan and never heard of corn pudding? You just don't know what you've been missing my friend. Don't see it too often on restaurant menus, but a common dish at family pot lucks and church get-togethers. Head up toward Kentucky & Tennessee... you'll leave with a corn pudding recipe in hand.
The corn pudding is a very overlooked thing in Texas. Most places don't include it but it is a Texas bbq staple. As a Texan, I can vouch for it, but it can be done better with green hatch chili's. It is the most rare side dish you'll find in Texas. Some of us have it for Thanksgiving or Christmas in place of green bean casserole.
Yall forgot the pecan pie... i absolutely love how wide his eyes got with every bite he took... just come to Texas. We'd love to have yall over for a steak and baked potatoes and shrimp... good eatin
I love pecan pie, even though I’ve only had the market kind. I would be in Heaven if I had homemade pecan pie.
@@nitro_001newman2 brother oh my brother..yall gotta make to Texas and experience The Salt Lick. Google it. Austin Tx Salt lick.. you'll never leave. But there's all kinds of BBQ joints here in the greatest and friendliest and most beautiful place on here in this huge world. We have just about everything you can imagine. C'mon down and we'll treat you like family...cause you are. Have a good'in
@@adampizana6040 I looked Salt Lick up like you said, and I ended up watching a TH-cam video of the place, and OMG. I could just tell by looking at it, that it looks like the best bbq in the world. The host was being shown and fed by Scott, who’s part of the family. The briskets are surgery sweet and moist. Then Scott fed him beans, coleslaw, and potato salad. The potato salad looked like something I’ve never seen before, with an orange like color. I wish they got to dessert, because I would have love to see that. Tbh, I was already thinking about flying or doing a crazy long drive, just to eat there. I gotta at least take a mini vacation in Texas, and make sure I visit the Salt Lick. If I lived in Texas, I think I’d always be overweight for sure, with that kind of good food. Thanks for telling me about all this Adam. Btw, I’m from the Los Angeles area, and I only briefly been to El Paso, TX, from driving across the border from New Mexico. So I never really been around in Texas, and never ate there. The Salt Lick is now on my short bucket list, thanks to you, and watching the video.
Just saw you were trying something from Texas and clicked like automatically. :)
Enjoy!
This Lifelong Texan wants to know what “pork brisket” is.
À new one to me also.
It's a "Texas BBQ" in Carolina. That's why.
Actually they mislabeled it cause 1 minute later she said it was indeed beef brisket. I was gonna leave a comment too lol. Ain't no such thing as pork brisket!
ok as a Natural Born Texan. I want to say, that those Pork Ribs looked amazing as did the "Beef" Briskit. but that Potato salad was Mayo based, here in Texas there is also a Mustard Based Potato salad and its been argued for years on which was better.
As a New Yorker who lived in SC for 6 years and loves mayo, I will settle this argument as an unbiased 3rd party.
The mustard based potato salads are the best. The tang is necessary. And any cook/chef in NY worth their salt makes potato salad with mustard. It is simply and objectively a better flavor profile and helps cut through the rich fattiness of the resf of the meal.
Definitely the mustard one... And i live far south of Texas.

The best potato salad uses a combination of mayo and mustard. Mayo to give it the nice creamy consistency and bind everything together, and just enough mustard to give it that little tang that's missing from a pure mayo based potato salad. Real german potato salad that is purely vinegar based is the worst by a mile though.
@@Rowgue51 Yeah, that's what a mustard based badada salad is.
We call them potato curls, and they taste awesome with sweet and smoky bbq sauce on them! My family makes potato salad with Mayo, mustard, hard boiled eggs, and pickle relish! Add some celery seed for a little spice!
Same here. But I always use leftover mashed potatoes, so nothing goes to waste.
You both gave me a contact food comma w/ all the BBQ. Awesome video you both
What an enjoyable video. I have subscribed!
I recommend a road trip to Lexington,Texas so you can go to Snow's BBQ, but plan around a weekend as the hours of operation are Saturday 8AM-12PM (or sold out)
And this is why I make weekly or bi-weekly visits to a local amazing barbecue place, ever since the first time I tried it, hooked lol
As a person who has had both styles of potato salad, I must say that German style potato salad is really good. I honestly like it more than the traditional potato salad I grew up with in the US.
Nice seeing someone trying Texas BBQ for the first time. I'm from San Antonio, TX and we have the best BBQ between here and Austin.
Nope, Dallas. lol
Some of the best food I've EVER EATEN!!! :)
Oh that looks SOOO good! Hungry for bbq now but it's 11 pm, LOL. I actually do vinegar AND mayo in my potato salad -- boil potatoes, let them cool, cut them into cubes, and add chopped onion, salt, and pepper. The dressing is about equal parts apple cider vinegar and mayo, with just a bit of stone ground mustard. Lastly add some chopped parsley and chill until ready. Really yummy.
Vinegar is what ruins potato salad. Pickle relish is also ruinous.
@@anonygent I have to strongly disagree about vinegar ruining a potato salad, but you're absolutely right about pickle relish! Don't put that crap in deviled eggs either.
@@kck9742 I was raised on German potato salad, mayo & mustard, big pieces of potato, but no vinegar, no relish. All other potato salad has come up short.
When I was a kid, family gatherings always included potato salad (with mayonnaise) and German potato salad (which was vinegar based and usually served warm). I always ate both but preferred the German version.
This was in Pennsylvania where at one time 1/3 of the population spoke a German dialect, which for historical reasons is called Dutch or Pennsylvania Dutch but it is much more closely related to Pfaalzische than it is to the language of Netherlands.
@Dusty Relic: There's an interesting story behind the term "Pennsylvania Dutch:" When Americans in Pennsylvania asked the recent immigrants (back in the 18th and 19th centuries) where they were from, the answers were usually "I'm Deutsche." (meaning "I'm German.") or "Deutschland" (i.e. Germany) -- to American ears that sounded like they were saying that they were Dutch which is why Pennsylvania Dutch is really German. During the late 1700s through the 1800s, many Pennsylvania Dutch moved to the northern Shenandoah Valley of Virginia -- I've always lived in Virginia, but we didn't move to the Shenandoah Valley until 1997. German last names are very common here, so I fit right in with my German-Swiss surname (i.e. Swiss nationality, but German ethnicity), but as you can guess based on my first name, my family took a detour through South America (Argentina and Uruguay, specifically) before reaching Virginia. 🤔
@@pablohammerly448 that is an urban legend. The German immigrants did not come from Deutschland; Germany wasn’t founded until 1871. The reason why they are called Dutch is because the English word “Dutch” used to refer to anyone coming from the part of the world where Western Germanic languages were spoken. It was used also to refer to that family of languages. The languages of the Netherlands were included in that group (and even today many Dutch dialects are mutually intelligible with the Low German dialects spoken across the border in neighboring areas of Germany, although Low German dialects are today endangered). When the nation of Germany was formed in 1871 English speakers gradually started referring to the inhabitants as “German”. But the PA Dutch were already here and they remained “Dutch” even as the meaning of the English word Dutch narrowed to just refer to the people and language of the Netherlands in other contexts.
Interestingly, the (Netherlands) Dutch word for “German” is Duits, and they used to include themselves as speakers of Duits and later Nederduits.
Luv me some TX BBQ. It might be interesting to Phil that "ground zero" of Tx BBQ is predominately in the Hill Country of TX. It one of the first areas settled by many German Families and still has a strong German cultural presence. There are also pockets of BBQ pleasure all over the state. If I'm eating German food (schnitzel, sausage, sauerbraten, etc) I prefer the vinegar based (German inspired) version. If it's just a family throw down, the mayo based 'Merican version is the most popular. Happy Trails Guys.
Love it guys! I live in the Southern US and love German Potato Salad and the mayo traditional US version - I have made a killer version using both together! We have a seafood restaurant here that serves this style, and it is the best I've ever had!!
Hnnnngh my mouth was watering the entire time. Southern bbq at its finest. And I'm obsessed with brisket and sausages 🤤😩
It’s called a gut sausage because the meat is stuffed into a casing made from pig intestine.
@Hobo Golf Most any sausage you buy is inside a casing made from pig intestine.
@Hobo Golf yes sounds gross but it's natural, don't know what you're getting w/ the artificial man made ones.
There are no such restaurants in Germany but we do this at home using our offset smoker.🇩🇪
My 2nd son is stationed in Germany & has introduced the locals to BBQ Brisket, he's now married to a German national.
Best way to roll - find your own way.
I am American and I make homemade potatoes salad quite often and I always put a lot of (organic) apple cider vinegar with mayo in there! I love the tang that hits the back of the throat when the vinegar is in there.
Most german potato salads have no mayo. 😊
I'm from south Texas, grew up about halfway between San Antonio and Houston. What a lot of people don't know about Texas is that there is large German/Czech population in the region that stretches from Fayette and Lavaca counties to the east to Comal county to the west (New Braunfels). And those German and Czechs make some of the best BBQ you'll find anywhere! If you ever make it to Lockhart, Texas, I recommend Black's BBQ, located on the town square.
There are actually a couple texas german communities where some people STILL speak German. After a couple hundred years of their families living here.
Texas BBQ is the bomb! I love a good brisket with a smoky sauce. You guys should open a BBQ joint in Germany just sell German potato salad instead of the mayo based stuff.
The official BBQ meat for California is beef Tri Tip. Marinaded for 2=3 hours And smoked for an hour and a half. Sliced thin and served with smoked peppers and onions. On a roll or plate it's incredibly good
@@roryschweinfurter4111 LOVE a good tri tip!
@@carolnearson7932
California's finest
@@carolnearson7932
I have a killer recipe for a BBQ tri tip that I've put up before. But I guess it got deleted
If you'd like me to put it back up send me a message and I'll be happy to put it back up
@@roryschweinfurter4111 Tri tip is amazing. Difficult to cook, though.
I LOVE real German potato salad!!!!!! My mouth watered when you mentioned your Grandmother's potato salad. And I'm from TEXAS!
Now I know why my parents went to the Texas hill country several times during retirement. So much great food!
I lived in Texas for a little while, and the main difference to me, between Southern BBQ and TX BBQ was, in TX, BBQ meant beef, the Southern BBQ, the pig is king. Of course you can get both pork and beef in both locals, but I think that's the way they lean.
TX BBQ refers to method of prep. Smoked without any sauce. Sauce may be added before eating...but not before smoking.
“Phil wants to be filled with more meat” should provide interesting comments from a variety of folks. Funny none the less…(now questioning my own sense of humor, 🤔)
I have to have something sweet to look forward to afterwards and that go-to is the classic banana pudding.
All of the innuendo that could be clipped out of this video are hilarious.
I promise not to make any puns about banana-putting, this comments section is already teetering on the edge of anarchy!
In the south we co.bine vinegar and mayo by using yellow mustard and mayo, onions, pickles, hard boiled eggs, etc. Everyone has their version but the basic and season to taste.
On the potato salad, we do both, potatoes cooked, diced, add mayo, a touch of mustard, dome diced hard boiled eggs, some red & green (at least) bell pepper, mix some apple cider vinegar w/ a little bit of sugar to ease the sharpness of the vinegar, a little scallion/shallot or onion as you prefer, mix well - serve.
Love your channel...no BBQ in Germany...sad to hear. You need to find some "burnt ends" and Beef ribs...beef ribs are awesome. Thank you for all your clips.
Kansas City burnt ends are the best,,
@@brendafrazier811 yes! KC burnt ends! As a KC native, my favorites are burnt ends, brisket, ribs, and pulled pork (not necessarily in that order). And of course there has to be a sweet KC-style barbecue sauce (made with molasses and/or brown sugar). 😋
@@melindar.fischer5106 Yes, burnt ends at Jack Stack, pulled pork at Joe’s! And don’t forget the bbq beans! Worth going to Jack Stack just for the beans! Lived in KC all my life.
No BBQ in Germany? Sounds like a business opportunity. I know, restaurants go broke all the time...
Jumping on the KC burnt ends bandwagon! Nature’s perfect food.
Mayo potato salad is best, as are pork ribs (please don’t ask for a “whole rib cage”…get a rack of ribs). 😂 Maybe Phil would prefer bbq beans instead of the corn pudding, I know I do.
You obviously don't know tater salad. The fact that you said potato alone proves that.... tater salad HAS to have sweet pickle juice and mustard...... you need some real Alabama tater salad!!! Mayo potato salad has no flavor.....
Gotta have dem Beans and Tater Salad all day
@@michaelvoorhees5978 I use mayo and mustard, and chop in onions, sweet pickles, and Dill pickles. Though I have had potatoes fried with onion, bacon and a touch of vinegar while living in Germany, it was amazing!!!!
@@beccagee5905 that works, except you're using potatoes instead of taters.....
If your looking for that number 10 rated food . Try Louisiana when the soft shell crab is in season . They shed there shell & are hand picked , cleaned and breaded then deep fried . . They look like a spider when server . The creb meat is supper sweet .
Phil's face when he loves something really delicious is priceless 😅 Get that man some more meat! 🤣 I laughed out loud when Deana said "junge junge"...such a german thing to say lol.
American BBQ Brisket is right at the top of my bucket list. Lucky guy Phil, good food, best wife, plenty of travel
PS Mayonnaise on fries any day! and white pepper powder!
Thanks! I'm a lucky guy! 😍 Hope you get to try a brisket!! 😎🍖 So good!
When you do, come to KC. DO NOT BOTHER WITH TEXAS!!
When you come please try all the bar b q. Texas style, Kansas city, Carolina BBQ, and Memphis. Then you will know Texas is the best, but all are quite good.
Wait, that's not The Salt Lick in Driftwood, TX or Black's in Lockhart, TX.
Lewis' in Charleston, SC
Salt Lick is only ok. Blacks is great.
here in central texas its actually more Mustard potato salad. and the Corn pudding really isnt a thing. the sausage yall had was way more seasoned then a traditional course ground hot gut here. brisket looked good! i always love watching people enjoy our BBQ...
Glad you liked it! It’d be quite a trip but I’d enjoy his reaction would be to the New Braunfels Smokehouse in New Braunfels, TX. Have some Shiner beer too.
Potato salad: I like both, it depends on the individual recipe. Here in England Potato salad is with mayo, but I think I prefer an oil/vinegar one.
There is a third choice, here in Texas most are made with mustard.
@@Jml416 Sounds delicious and disgusting at the same time. I need it.
I am originally from Memphis Tennessee it's well known for its BBQ if you ever get to visit Tennessee one day..try Corky's BBQ or Rendezvous!! I love you Guys and I look forward to your next video!👍😁
It's been probably 28 years since I visited Memphis but you are right!! I remember the BBQ was delicious though couldn't remember what restaurant.
I miss them places and the BBQ Festival!
Never saw your channel before and this was fun! And I'm with you on the potato salad!
I'm 67 and have my grandmother's recipe for German hot potato salad that is vinegar based.
Once you've had it? You're spoiled! lol
Yess, exactly! :)
I was stationed in a little town Zirendorff . There was a little place I ate at almost every day. So for almost a year and a half I ate the same thing made by an Italian lady Cordon Bleu not rolled but flat and deep fried. I must say it was and still is the best thing I ever put in my mouth! Best thing about the place was the family her husband would not bring my meal till as he put it "You eat your roughage" . I recommend to everyone if you ever get a chance to go abroad pick Germany beautiful country beautiful people that was my perspective.
Ya'll are going to make me kill my budget. That great BBQ is making me want some.
Thanks for sharing
Have you guys ever had a 10/10? Mine is the Z-Man from Kansas City Joe’s. BBQ sauce for fries, then Ketchup.
Well now I have to try making a vinegar based potato salad.
My step mum was german and she never made it like that, but then she was always making things her way. Hers was red potato (skin on), mayo, green onion, egg and with bits of gherkin and bacon.....I could eat bowls of it! She was an AMAZING cook, use to say I had never really eaten until she came along.
I love that you guys eat in your car. It's the new normal. 😊😊👍👍✌️✌️ I've been doing it for years. Espically with the kids. 😋😋
"I don't ever want to eat anything else"
-yup
OH GAAAWD, how I miss real, authentic American BBQ living here in Austria!!! I almost cried watching this video...
Oh dude, I truly feel sorry for you! I really do! Living in Texas, I can’t even imagine what it would be like to never have it again!
I have some good news for you then. There's this little place called Southside Meat Market in Elgin Texas on the internet that ships their BBQ which is fabulous. Their hot sausage (referred to as Elgin Hot Guts) are beyond belief. They have been around since 1882 and, according to the document on their wall, was designated the Official BBQ of the State of Texas. Since I was born in Elgin a few decades ago, I can vouch for the consistent quality. 🍖
With the potato salad, combo mayo & vinegar 1 - 1/3 ish depending on your flavor request....WITH fresh hot horseradish.
I'm With you on the potato salad. NC has almost the same thing but to get that extra tang they add mustard. Worth trying
No beans? Here in Texas we typically make the potato salad with mustard. Otherwise rest of the items looked delicious!
Oh man, beans FTW.
And mayo
Gotta have beans. Big pot of beans with brown sugar, plenty of bacon, and onions!😋
"I know, I'm saving it." Fucking gold!
