Let’s Take a Texas BBQ Road Trip, Shall We? The Last Stop is Obviously the Best

Recently, onlyinyourstate.com traveled to eight BBQ joints across Texas. Those stops included Austin, Lockhart and Tyler. And even better, some of these mouth watering stops will be at the Red Dirt BBQ and Music Fest Saturday, May 6, in Downtown Tyler.

Using the power of Instagram, I will make you hungry, very hungry, and maybe inspire a weekend trip or two.
