I scored Corksrew a 92 out 100. Grand Champion Texas BBQ no doubt.
Smoke: Red Oak. Steel Barrel wood fired REAL PIT bbq. Amen. They guy that took my order looked like he was into a whole different kind of Cheech and Chong style of smokin.
Brisket: Very Good. This is border line Excellent brisket. A disappointing 1/8 in smoke ring was the 1 point this brisket needed from making Excellent. Nearly perfect tenderness, snap apart, no knife needed masterpiece. Bark was thin and soft. Ring and meat was dark. Smoke was Goldilocks: not too much, not too little, just right. Overall flavor was above average and no sauce is needed. I got a burnt end but it did not tasted any different than the slices.
Ribs: Very Good. Near perfect tenderness, soft bite, clean bone, no tearing. It had a nice salty porky flavor. Good smoke. No sauce needed.
Sausage: Good. Typical course ground pork sausage with traditional spice and average after taste. A Little greasy. Decent smoke and good flavor. No sauce needed.
Sauce: Excellent. This BBQ is really good, but its when you apply the sauce do you understand why people stand in line in 95 degree heat. This sauce would make the gravel you stand on taste good. A onion, vinegar, lemon buttery tomato base sauce sauce that is good enough to drink. Nothing here needs the sauce but when applied you fall in love.
