That is because your BBQ joint did not offer the Happy Meal.
The Happy Meal was the best piece of marketing in history.

More like getting the kids to shut the hell up over real food.
I would go with the BBQ everytime, but I have no children to appease or budget for.

Meh, here's a Texan who prefers a great burger over BBQ anyday. That being said, McD's isn't a great burger.

Fuck off. Who was talking about being gay? I was making a joke about wasting your money on a stripper cuz they pretend to like you. You gonna derail another thread with this gay shit?
Edit to add: It doesn't surprise me, however, that you would immediately associate a hard on with being gay. :smh:

I Love me some BBQ, especially some Missouri BBQ, but I'm with you on the Burgers. I could eat Burgers for lunch and dinner every day if I didn't think it would kill me. There are very few places to get a good Burger it seems these days. A lot of Burger posers out there.

Man, just checked out their site. Mmmmmmmmmm. I definitely have to check out this place. Love me some Rockerfellers. That sold me right there!
Edit to add: They have a nice gluten free menu as well for the glutenites out there. Got a friend who's a glutenite and I've learned it's tough to find good places to eat.
Thanks for sharing, I will try this place out for sure!

I promise you, it's so friggin delicious.. Good solid craft beer they have too. What beers that? Good beer and fantastic BBQ. O lawd.
None if this new hipster cook crap overtaking cool restaurants like in Nashville or that garbage Piece in downtown.. Chucks is straight up a man who knows how to make his shit, and no playin around.
If you ever make it south to Southern Illinois area, check out 17th Street in Murpheysorro. Hnnnngggg. Ya can buy the sauce online, too.

And if you're really hungry, you can try the $18.95 Bluto challenge. Eat the whole thing and you get it for free!
I don't, however, recommend the hot wing challenge. I've seen guys carted away to the hospital after trying the hot wings!!! Funny shit watching 'tough' guys trying to act like it ain't hot. Check out some reactions. :lol:
