- At Austin’s Interstellar BBQ, pitmaster John Bates and his right-hand man, Warren McDonald, a.k.a "War Dog," put a spin on classic Texas fare. Using all of the kitchen skills and attention to detail he learned as a chef in high end restaurants, Bates plays up traditional ribs by rubbing them with a mole seasoning, serving them with a riff on mole sauce and cotija cheese, and makes other distinct offerings like pastrami beef ribs and jalapeño popper-stuffed sausages.
Eater would like to assure viewers that all videos were shot before restaurants were asked to close. Check the CDC for the most updated guidance on dining out at restaurants.

Wardog : "Hello gentlemen, how's your evening going?"
Brisket : "Pretty average, how was your's?"
*...*
Wardog : "Alright, Imma go home now."
When you work so long you start hulucnating lol
If you told me that Wardog was actually an undercover CEO of a major successful corporation I'd believe it.
I totally got undercover boss vibes from him too lol
Undercover bbq bosses
Wardog is that friend we all need in our lives.
Thanks everyone. It is a trip working there.. try to entertain myself and love to play and experiment in the kitchen
They need turkey and deer meat 😃
Warren McDonald what are you wearing on your head?
@@warrenmcdonald1292 on first impression, I thought you are Warren Buffett
Warren McDonald, you should post videos about your daily life at work, I'll totally watch it.
Wardawg is the real deal. I had the pleasure of working with him in a previous kitchen. Never met anyone who took more pride in his food. He’s a mad man in the kitchen. Love you Wardawg.
Here in the UK, our bbq consists of burnt sausages and over done burgers in the garden. We just get drunk and forget what were eating. This stuff in America is different level. Amazing xxx
lmao
Same in all europe
Why did I read this in a British accent in my head when I’m American
Can your Austin Powers teeth HANDLE these meats? ;^)
@@gschady why do you think our teeth are like that....from all the chewing and tearing we have to do on our shitty BBQ..
Most owners would kill for an employee like wardog in their kitchen. Lol
Rodrigo Iraheta I think every really good kitchen has that guy there.
Proconsul Scipio 100%... those guys are just cut from a different cloth
Hendrix Anderson No doubt. The guy at our restaurant has been there over twenty years, cannot speak English fluently but taught me more about the mechanics of cooking than any Michelin starred chef there is.
A love for cooking and respect for the animals is rare.
Proconsul Scipio that’s a pretty high bar buddy
Employees like wardog are worth their weight in gold.
Wardog's the type of dude you'll wanna give your restaurant to when you decide to retire. That's passion, man.
4:17 Everyone gangsta till the brisket starts talking back

There was another episode where a food truck used this guy's prep kitchen. What a champ for renting out his facility.
Shoutout to wardog for shouting out Warren G - Regulator . Slaps!
I keep forgettin...about that song...
classic!
elchubbo I see what you did there.
mount up
Much like the brisket, my body is a gelatinous wonderland of richness.
But is it composed?
thanks, I’ll make sure to use that information effectively
Let me taste it.
GOT STUUUFFED sounds tasty. I’m sure that’s a nice treat for your dating partner.
@@Tainomontana woah woah slow down there buster
Warren G & the Regulator. A Classic right there.
Shoutout to War Dog, he is very much a essential part of the whole process.
Another shoutout to the people here that know about the Regulator that Wareen G put out in the 90’s.
Man this is the dream. I work in a Midwestern French inspired fine dining farm to table restaurant and have been smoking/BBQing since I was a teen. The way this restaurant cooks and plates is an inspiration.
That's a mouthful
@@Nikp117 indeed, I'm sure there an easier way to explain what I do lol
I’ve eaten here and it was solid. I have it in my top 5 for Austin and I was slightly disappointed the first time only due to it being so new so I’m guessing they were figuring things out. However, I have seen in this video that they changed a bunch and even added stuff. They’re not kidding about the sides or desserts here at all. The sides here are very good.
The BBQ in NYC is god awful. I am jealous.
@@Alex-ye1br have you tried Hometown BBQ? Probably the best the city has to offer
@@anto_91 Yep, live quite close to Red hook. Otherwise, It's Blue Smoke or Fette Sau.
What places are on that list of yours?
They've ironed things out, but still remain consistently good. My favorite ribs in the city hands down.
I want to see a Chef's Night Out for this crew, War Dog is that dude lmao
Everyone at vice @vice +vice
I live close by interstellar. Happy to see my local bbq is on here finally! :)
yo mama taste good gotta love Austin
John I'm impressed with your humbling acknowledgement that even with experience in "high end" kitchens you're new to BBQ and don't know everything. Yes based on how you prepare your food I want to come and try it!
I legitimately gasped at how incredible that brisket looked when he cut it in half.
Fuxk the brisket (can't believe Im sayin this)...that pastrami rib tho. Im in love.
This man wardog called the brisket a gelatinous wonderland of richness. He is a poet
I want to take a 15 hrs flight just to eat that... This looks so good omg
I will go for you....3 hour drive fron Dallas
Haha wanna watch choox together
No
Ayyyeeee gemik!!!
Hey Gemik from ML is here ;)
Wardog is my spirit animal.
I was wondering what a Christopher Nolan movie had to do with barbecue.
same
same
Good to see a chef make every dish the best thing you ever ate .
I think the world just need more love and BBQ.
Wardog is a treasure.
This place is less than a mile from my house and office. I love interstellar BBQ. Nice to see them featured.
I live just a few miles away. One of the best bbq restaurants in Austin. Their lamb shank is amazing
Best way to tell if its time to go home, is when food talks back to you HAHA.
“We care about everything on the menu here. From brisket to pickles. Everything matters here.” That’s passion there.
That pastrami rib sounds like actual heaven
It's R U B, with a "U". Ugh!
@@majoroldladyakamom6948 at 10:57 it clearly says "rib"..
@@majoroldladyakamom6948 go away u troll
@@majoroldladyakamom6948 How is a R U B a bath of liquid and veggies? Classical Karen. Ugh!
oh it is
Did this guy ever work in fine dining? I don't remember him mentioning that
He's actually worked in fine dining establishments..I don't know if u heard 😂😂😂
9:28
Twenty years in the can...
Wardog is my new role model. 🤣 I have an ‘Enforcer’ too; I call it Rick Dalton. lol. 🔥🍖
J. Bates talks food like it's a contact sport 🥊
Definitely gonna re-create those pastrami ribs! I bet that'd be good for short ribs for the home chef. I really dig the passion they put into their cooking too!
It's very honorable that you're clear about the authenticity of your food.
8:24 .. "The Enforcer" I use is an idling leaf blower since MORE air/ oxygen flares the fire equally without burning more propane kinda like a strong gust of wind
Jesus, when wardog checking the brisket, I felt the passion. Damm respect.
Hope I can try this out one day. We don't have this kind of BBQ quality in the Netherlands
But you do have a lot of yummy fried foods…
a bunch of humble, hardworking gents
Warren is a national treasure.
can confirm the scallop potatoes are amazing. the smokiness is something you never think about wanting in cheesy potatoes but its perfection. Blessed this place is 15 minutes away :)
I believe that wardog should try his hand at Poetry, would be a Best Seller I think, great Video, Beautiful Food. If you guys ever decide to do a revisit of all of your Smoke Point places, you would have a big following. Many thanks.
WarDog is a real one ☝🏽. Shout out to you Regulator.
Thank you!!! Come see us!!
Pastrami beef ribs? I definitely need to try those.
I want to experience a gelatinous wonderland of richness
Love what you're doing definitely going to have to try you all out when I'm in Austin. I was a executive chef white tablecloth most of my life and what you're doing sounds excellent
Great place to eat. Jon is super cool the food is phenomenal
Love bbq spots that think outside the box. Often times they provide great flavor because of their uniqueness.
Google maps you can see Wardog hangin by the smokers
Outside the box is the place to be. I've been smoking ancho rubbed tri tip and making enchiladas out of it. Smoke it. Braise it. Use the resulting broth as a base for the chili gravy. My house has been quite popular.
I need more warren in my life
Wow! The craft , passion and humbleness is magnificent! Looking forward to come to your place!
That pit master guy really likes to curl up with his food
That banana pudding tart...........omg.
That BBQ looks amazing. The dedication & attention to detail is what brings it all together. I wish Texas was near lol
Wardog needs his own show.
#wardogRules ! Chef's perspective on things (business, life, bbq philosophy) brilliant, simple and priceless. Have to visit the place now.
I live across the street. It’s as good as you think it is.
Wow I just eaten but my mouth is watering. Looks amazing.
Wardog likes a good curl after his heavy meals.
Those beef ribs are off the chain. We never see them here in Mississippi restaurants, grocery stores. I'm going to find some online. Great vid.
Wardog what a wacky dude
Added to my bucket list.!
I think workmates like Wardog make life at work a lot more enjoyable, even if your job is extremely exhausting mentally ! :)
The one thing I miss about America right now is BBQ. Being stationed overseas sucks sometimes
A most Noble business venture... I think I'll go cry in a corner now.
The pastrami rib!!!!😍🤤
Warren G aka the regulator 🔥🔥🔥
Next time I head down to visit the Crowded Barrel Distillery I am going to have to stop in and try y’all out! That beef rib looks great.
That all looked so darn good and that tart to top it off was amazing!!
Came cuz of the munchies... Stayed for wardog...
Yes finally new ideas for BBQ coming from Texas
Nice to see a twist on beef ribs recipe.
IN WARDOG WE TRUST
A gelatinous wonderland of richness! Legend!
Any bbq place in Texas must have good brisket.
"A gelatinous wonderland of richness" Can identify.
The homie Wardog is a nap expert!
Very innovative!!
There's a 100% chance Wardog is actually Tom Berenger
"Smoked Turkey Breast" bruh thats a chicken thigh.
Great! These guys must be working at NASA
"WISTER-sheer" I love grammar and I love ribs.
Wardog reminds me of Tom Berenger
It's 2am and I've never been so hungry!
They are living my dream.
*OMG freaking phenomenal spot to place on my Bucket list see ya soon my friends at Austin's Interstellar BBQ! Hey, that smoke ring to bite into that!*
Gelatinous wonderland of richness 😍
One day I will do a food trip through all America
I’ve never been to Austin. It is now on my list just to get that beef rib 😋
That beef rib looks amazing
9:55 i thought he was gonna say something like: "it´s brisket time", but then he went ahead and just told the actual time.
make me hungry craving for bbq
Watching this while hungry was a poor idea lol.
I like Warren! Also that food looks amazing. I want a pastrami rib Sammie so bad.
Merry Christmas btw!
Not a mole fan. But love BBQ and would try it.
Pit master is the most RPG title one can have
11:17 So a "smoked turkey breast" at Interstellar is actually a chicken thigh?
Great story. I'll be going to Austin for some neovo BBQ.
