Matt & I started off Friday by working out and then driving a few hours to Lockhart, TX. This is known as the BBQ capital of Texas so we had to stop for lunch at Black's BBQ.
Best. Decision. Ever. I had been warned their beef ribs were huge and that felt like a challenge to me. They were right.
See? Huge! I also had 1 slice of brisket and 2 sides. Don't worry, I did not eat the entire thing- there was so possible way to do that. The rib was not only huge but also expensive ($12.70 on its own). I enjoyed it, but it was a good once-in-a-lifetime thing. Matt enjoyed his brisket and sausage as well, though he preferred the brisket.
After lunch, we headed to Matt's parent's house in Austin. Now begins the hodge-podge of pictures of various walks, games, and dishes that were enjoyed.

Easter feast dessert. The best chocolate cake ever. |
Playing a very addictive card game. So much intensity. |

Matt's parents even got us Easter baskets! I love that and now the huge amount of candy is tempting me as we speak (AKA I type).
Hope you also had a great Easter!
Envy! Envy! After seeing several programs on Food Channel about Lockhart, I've always wanted to visit -- but with stops at SEVERAL of their famous BBQ joints. Now I have to start making definite plans.... Paula
