Must OrderTexas-Style Oak-Smoked Brisket
Texas-style BBQ in a gas-station smokehouse atmosphere on Route 66, famous for dry-rubbed brisket smoked over oak, a regional pit-stop legend. We made the drive and it absolutely delivered. The Texas-Style Oak-Smoked Brisket is the move, order it, thank us later. This is exactly the kind of spot Dirty Potato exists to celebrate: real food, real place, worth leaving the house for.
