So many wonderful suggestions! Let me add Country Tavern in East Texas to the list. Establishment has been there for over 50 years - hardly a light in the place, save a candle on each table. No menu, just two choices: ribs or brisket and that's it. Comes with potato sald, dill pickles, onions, bread (Mrs. Bairds of course), and sauce to die for. Located between Kilgore and Tyler. Next time your swinging through Texas on I-20, between Tyler and Kilgore, keep it in mind. ^
