As a chef it’s genuinely so refreshing seeing you taking the time to interview the pit masters, learn their techniques, and share the history of these restaurants. Major props!!
A giant room with picnic styled seating is the Texas Barbeque equivalent of seeing Dragon Ball merch at a Mexican styled restaurant, YOU KNOW you're gonna get amazing food from there
Deadass I was in Colombia recently and the most insanely good food I had was from a ramshackle street card with bootleg pictures of Wario playing futbol. You know when copyright infringement is thrown to the wind that the vendor only truly really cares about the food lol.
Yeah, because their food is so good, they think they don't have to worry about amenities. I do. They might accidentally get carryout business from me, but I doubt it. I don't like carryout anything, especially pizza, because no steaming hot food travels well in corrugated cardboard. Disgusting idea.
Your video made me cry! I have been going to Southside for all long as I can remember, half my family is buried there in the main cemetery. My dad would always take us there to eat. Seeing the old location brought back so many fond and wonderful memories. You missed their pork steaks... but, nothing beats their sausage. YUM!!! I have been craving Southside... now! I know I have to make the 3 hour trek there and back! Thank you!!!
Going to Texas for 'Cue and eating at Dickeys would be like going to Italy for Pizza and eating at Pizza Hut. Heck, I bet you would have gotten better 'Cue from that Buck-Ees than from Dickeys.
Unironically Buc-ee's is significantly better than Dickey's. If you used a standard bell-curve, Buc-ee's is the definition of a 5.0 on the scale, and Dickey's sits at around a 3.1, maybe even a bit lower
@popemon7608 Dickey's is just a step above Chili's and Applebee's when it comes to BBQ. Buccee's is below a 5. I bought a brisket sandwich there one time and t was the last time.
“Since it’s such a big chain it should represent traditional Texas barbecue” 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 You don’t go to chains at all for good barbecue I’m gonna cry
@@Bobspineable maybe because theres no other place nearby selling BBQ around dickey's ? thats why ppl keep coming there because theres no other option nearby and they stay afloat with that dry meat
Whoever advised you where to go after the Dickey's, which you now know why we avoid, sent you to two of the three stations of the Texas barbecue cross. Next, the third: Smitty's in Lockhart.
Why did Kenny look like Chuck Norris long long-lost brother? I would trust him with my life. Never had Texas BBQ or thought about it but I now want to. I need find a cowboy hat. 🤠
Yeah, I agree.Gi to Smitty,s Black,s Kreutz,s think there is Chisolm Trail BbQ. San Antonio has Bill Miller,s BbQ chain. Salt Lick in Dripping Springs or is it Driftwood, TX.Then there,s Franklins in Austin
I can’t believe you’re in your young 20s. Your production skills are unbelievable. I am not interested in this topic at all but watched this entire video. Incredible editing and pacing. Subbed!
Dylan is so underrated! in a world of controversial TH-camr's and social media personalities, he gives us pure content. I genuinely love this guy, hes always welcome at my cookouts!
Thank you for a great video. What amazed me the most was that both of the places that were the oldest they simply used salt and pepper to season their meat. I smoked a brisket myself for a birthday party and I got so many compliments and I simply used salt and pepper. Nothing else
Kenny was so cool to let you get hands on he’s right that’s the best way to learn .. I love that you not only try the foods but interact with the staff 💚
The amount of hours it takes to cook meat. That's hard work and dedication. The barbecue at the second spot looked delicious. I love how you sum up the history. I learn better the way you explain it. Lmao 😅😂
I'm a native Texan and we can tell if it is going to be good BBQ just by the smell. You mentioned that outside of Coopers. Texas BBQ is more how it's cooked than sauces. You can't beat good old salt and pepper.
Dylan, you are now a real Texan! Congrats and welcome!! Dickey's BBQ sadly has lost their way. They used to be much better when I moved to Texas from Massachusetts in 1996. There are a few of their locations that still produce quality BBQ, but they are low in numbers. I've not been to Cooper's or Southside Market yet, but I will soon. My #1 for Texas BBQ? Hutchins BB Q in Frisco and McKinney. Take a ride and try em.
I live in Kingsland, TX - exactly 22 miles from Llano or Burnet. I have my choice of several very famous and renowned BBQ places, but will drive out of my way to go to Opie's Barbecue in Spicewood, TX on Hwy 71. Be sure to try the baked potato casserole. Though, if you really want to know all about Texas BBQ, you've got to go to one ore many of the random "Cookoffs". My bro-in-law has won Grandmaster of many, along with countless awards.
You should come to Beaumont, Texas Patillos Barbecue is the oldest black owned family restaurant in Texas. It’s been in the same family since it opened in 1912.
I would’ve went for the loaded baked potato and that’s about it. That meal was definitely over priced and under delivered. Still, an amazing video as always my guy 🫶🏼 Keep killing it ♥️
Recently discovered your videos and I've been loving your food recommendations!! Sadly I don't live in Texas at the moment, but I would try whatever you say is good there!! 🤩
Dicky's which I've had reminds me sadly of Virginia BBQ company it's for people that don't really understand BBQ it's like comparing Baltimore pit beef with Arbys it's a labor of love that's what makes it great
As a Kentucky native who sees KFC everywhere around the world - I'm glad someone understands the pain of a fast food chain hailing from their state and it being a bad representation of the food we make.
Interesting. There us so much more out there. One of my favorite pass times is following Texas Monthly and their BBQ picks for the year and visiting these locations on a road trip. I am 5th generation Texan and I chose to settle down in Chicago. While Chicago has so many food options, one thing that really lacks is Texas BBQ. There is one place however on the Northside, called Smoque BBQ and I instantly clicked with this place because of their sausage. Growing up in Austin, and frequenting that Southside BBQ among others like Black's Original, Cooper's, Terry Black's, Louie Muellers, Davis Grocery & BBQ, etc, most of these places used to get their sausage between Elgin and Taylor. This joint in Chicago also buys their sausage from Taylor. I bit into it and instantly knew the flavor and where it was from. I was so shocked, I was in disbelief and had to ask the staff where they buy their sausage and the staff told me it is sent up from Taylor TX. Blew my mind all the memories that it triggered. So if you're ever around the way in Chicago and you get a hankering for BBQ that is the place. Although, I'd recommend you do an episode on real Chicago pizza (TAVERN STYLE) and youll be thoroughly pleased to find deep dish is occasional but tavern style is where its at for Chicago Pizza. Every tavern, pub, bar, etc usually has its own recipe from dough to sauce, and there is a bragging rights battle across the city for the best tavern style. My personal favorite is Phil's on 35th.
No south side in Elgin has the best sausage!!I will die on this hill. (I’m definitely bias since I was raised there) although they changed their sweet bbq sauce awhile back and I was sad
You definitely make me want to make a separate channel and show my face and interact with people! I'm actually quite shy but I would love to interact with people more! I also love your content and wish you more success ☺️💖
I totally agree. I had Texas barbecue for an entire week and couldn't find anything that lives up to the hype Texans give. I had the best barbecue in Oakland, and los Angeles California

Hutchins BBQ in Mckinney Tx where you should of went
Using Dickeys wifi to search for a better barbeque is kind of savage
I know right
It’s like me at work on the wifi looking for new jobs lol lol

Kenny is the best. He’s so proud of their food and his commitment to it is amazing. Makes me want to take a trip to Texas just to goto to Coopers
Do it
It's worth it!!
Seeing Kenny from Coopers.
I would trust that man with my life when it comes to BBQ.
Gotta love Texans, not an ounce of self-doubt in the entire state.
But would you trust him with your wife
@@michaels.2283 don’t got one so sure
As a chef it’s genuinely so refreshing seeing you taking the time to interview the pit masters, learn their techniques, and share the history of these restaurants. Major props!!
Whenever my husband wants to be dissappointed and waste money, he drives to Dickeys.
I know right
Yep a as soon as I saw dickeys I knew he was in for a bad video. Dickeys is the worst bbq chain in texas
Wild 💀
but people loved it, why?
....Has he ever tried buying a season ticket for Tottenham?
A giant room with picnic styled seating is the Texas Barbeque equivalent of seeing Dragon Ball merch at a Mexican styled restaurant, YOU KNOW you're gonna get amazing food from there

And they serve rc cola
Where the heck are you getting Mexican food, nah homie
@@madisonweber2480nah if it’s Mexican and there not serving coke you know it’s gonna be bad

I don't like carryout anything, especially pizza, because no steaming hot food travels well in corrugated cardboard. Disgusting idea.
The minute I saw Dickey’s I was like what are you doing?! lol glad you recognized early on that Dickey’s does not represent traditional Texas BBQ
I know right 🥩🥩🥩🥩
Lol I said the same thing. Might as well go to Rudy's next to eat more crappy BBQ😂
I guess that is the Dallas equivalent of Bill Miller BBQ in San Antonio!
People would laugh at me for eating dickeys. I had to clarify it was only the turkey. Lol
Texas really tried to revoke your hat as soon as you said you weren't a fan of Texas BBQ. 😂
I know right 😂😂😂😂
As a fellow Texan…. Yes lol
🚩🚩🚩🚩

Yes!!😂

Dickey's used to have decent ribs about 15-20 years ago. I don't think they ever had good brisket.
10:34 when he was Baptized into a true Texan lol
Amen 😂
“Since it’s such a big chain it should represent traditional Texas barbecue” 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
You don’t go to chains at all for good barbecue I’m gonna cry
"Mcdonalds is the biggest chain in america so its gotta be good"
Ima Texan but I say layno instead of “yano” llano
Well they obviously have to be good to a certain degree to stay open, especially in Texas.
Chains do have one thing, consistency, you can always rely on one in a pinch.
@@Bobspineable maybe because theres no other place nearby selling BBQ around dickey's ? thats why ppl keep coming there because theres no other option nearby and they stay afloat with that dry meat
Dickey's and Famous Dave's are what people who don't live in areas that have good barbeque think is good barbeque.
From Texas and went to Colorado and tried famous Dave’s and didn’t eat half the bs they had
Famous daves is actually 🔥..i use the rub on my ribz and ribeyez... delicious!
Whoever advised you where to go after the Dickey's, which you now know why we avoid, sent you to two of the three stations of the Texas barbecue cross. Next, the third: Smitty's in Lockhart.

To me he looked a lot like Kenny from the walking dead game, super identical!
Kenny started reminding me of my dad watching Dylan eat 😭
Bro how did you not go to LockHart Texas??? All the best bbq is there, Blacks, Smittys, Kreuz market, terry blacks
Yeah, I agree.Gi to Smitty,s Black,s Kreutz,s think there is Chisolm Trail BbQ. San Antonio has Bill Miller,s BbQ chain. Salt Lick in Dripping Springs or is it Driftwood, TX.Then there,s Franklins in Austin
@@hildahilpert5018 Also Louie Mullers in Taylor. one of the absolute goats
Yep totally agree I lived and stayed in several parts of Texas, Blacks at LockHart is by far some of the best.
Lockhart is the mecca of BBQ
I love how even though you weren't diggin the BBQ you still showed the cook such respect for his craft
10:39 dude just mic-dropped by walking away.
Buc-ee's BBQ is way better than Dickey's BBQ. You should've tried Snow's BBQ in Lexington, TX. Ms. Tootsie is the oldest Pitmaster in Texas.
Snows in Lexington will have you melting into the floor. #1 for me!
“This is the face of a very happy boy”that caught me so off gard😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I can’t believe you’re in your young 20s. Your production skills are unbelievable. I am not interested in this topic at all but watched this entire video. Incredible editing and pacing. Subbed!
You should try some of the most popular Texas bbq places next like terry blacks and Goldie’s
Right !! Like how did he miss blacks 😭
No
hutchins is so good too
Franklins over blacks if we’re picking 2
As a Texan, never been to Coopers yet but I’m gonna put it on my bbq bucket list and go there next! Love your food videos 👍🏼
Calling Dickey's... Texas Bbq.....is like calling taco bell Mexican food!
Blacks bbq in Austin is where texas BBQ is at!
He was born in Texas and believes that Dickeys represents Texas BBQ 🤣🤣🤣
What a loser. The Black's BBQ in Austin suck. Those other ones are like McDonald's. Stick to the original Lockhart, Texas.
At 8:30 you see his day ruined when there's bbq pit stains all over his shirt hahah
I love the way Kenny stayed to see your thoughts on the beef rib 😭
Franklin is worth the wait. The brisket is better than A5 steak in Japan.
They're good but nah.
You need to try Goldee’s, Hutchins, Terry Black for some of the best BBQ
Those so nasty coopers better
Dylan is so underrated! in a world of controversial TH-camr's and social media personalities, he gives us pure content. I genuinely love this guy, hes always welcome at my cookouts!
I liked the celebrity restaurant episode
As a fellow Texan I wanted to cry when you went to Dickies 😭
I know right
Can we all thank Dylan for creating this amazing content for us on a regular basis!

I know right 🤤🤤🤤🤤
You should try Snow's BBQ, Franklin's BBQ and Lockhart's BBQ for some Great Texas BBQ.
Usually always go to Southside Texas bbq in Bastrop 😂
Dickeys bbq is like saying Taco Bell represents Mexican food 😂
Bro finna start a whole war 💀
Real bro he did Dickeys dirty it’s so good
You're insane
@@LinkTheCapybaraKing sounded and looked to me more like DIckeys did themselves dirty with that sad sack piece of bone dry brisket.

Well I like the pulled pork it’s really good
i love your takes on the food its really a break from people who always say the food is good even if it isnt.
Texas/Arizona BBQ is my favorite!!! The cowboy style is my #1 favorite!!! The Offset is #2!!!
Not Kenny walking away FROM YOU he knew you would love it lmfao
dylan your posts genuinely make my day
I'm a native Texan and we can tell if it is going to be good BBQ just by the smell. You mentioned that outside of Coopers. Texas BBQ is more how it's cooked than sauces. You can't beat good old salt and pepper.

You choose the fast food of BBQ. Why? You should certainly choose local places, not franchise based.
Go make your own video and then do that then.
