Smoke & Time BBQ

10/07/2026

Some of you know I am a former landscape designer but I have been a hobbyist gardener almost all my life. I spent many years playing in the dirt for the Texas Forest Service, Texas A&M AgriLife Research & Extension Center and at a lot of plant nurseries either as a student worker or as a part-time gig.

So here is a tip for this month- get those garlic cloves in the ground. They are sooo EASY to grow! If you prefer a milder garlic and are on a budget, you may have better luck with organic garlic from the grocery store and this year I got mine from HEB. I paid about $1/per bulb and 6 huge bulbs gave me about 40 good-sized cloves to work with.

There are all kinds of varieties out there online but some can be quite expensive. If you decide to go that route make sure you buy softneck varieties because they adapt well to our mild winters. They produce a higher yield and can be stored longer. Some popular ones are California Early, Early Italian and Texas Rose.

Y'all kicked our a$$es today and we loved every minute of it! We are beyond exhausted and we still have to drop off some things at Wise Roots and the Sale Barn.

We appreciate those of you who stopped in and hung out with us!

We are at the Decatur Livestock Market tomorrow 7:30-3 so if you are in the area, swing in. We do not sell BBQ at this location. We have breakfast burritos, sandwiches, plates and bowls and for lunch it's burgers, dogs, sandwiches, nachos, Frito Pie, wraps, etc.

Here is what we are dropping off at Wise Roots Farm to Market:
8 oz Chicken Salad
1/2 # sliced brisket (vacuum-sealed)
1/2 # sliced smoked turkey (vacuum-sealed)

Keep in mind we will be closed on Saturday to participate in the Oktoberfest event hosted by the Wise Chamber of Commerce 2-8PM! I will keep you updated when the date gets closer for those of you who are interested in going. We will be open Friday for regular service at the restaurant 11-8 PM and Sunday 11-3.

We were so busy today I didn't get a chance to take any pictures but here is one from an ancillary entry we did years ago when we were competitively cooking steaks.

Have a great week! See y'all soon! ❤️

Da Club. Brisket, rosemary garlic smoked turkey, house cured bacon, butter toasted bread, tons of mayo, green leaf lettuce, sliced heirloom tomato.

Familiar but slightly different. Would Daniel Vaughn approve?

We will be closed today (Saturday) due to significant flooding in the dining area and kitchen. Jimmy doesn't feel like cooking from a Jon boat.

We will plan to open tomorrow (Sunday) but check our page for any changes in our schedule. Hours are 11-3 or til sold out.

We are sorry for the inconvenience. Everyone stay safe and enjoy the rain!

Hopefully we will see y'all soon! ❤️

Freshly- ground brisket patty, crisp, fresh produce and REAL Cheddar cheese, all on a buttered and toasted homemade bun. Our updated version just got better and at a better price too! If you are looking for a straight- up, old- fashioned hamburger, you need to slide through or give us a call @ 940-337-8377 to place your order for pick up. If we don't answer, we may be busy, so try again!
