It’s Friday afternoon around 4:30 pm, and the evening commute is already starting to heat up.\u00a0In a parking lot beside a low slung red brick building, a smoker with two huge chimneys sits\u00a0in one corner and picnic tables are\u00a0lined up end to end. But rather than cars pulling up in this lot, a line has formed outside its gate. It’s September in Portland, Oregon, but on this particularly warm summer day, with the sun starting to drop low in the sky, and a line forming for beer, you could almost convince yourself you were in Texas.<\/p>\n

The line at Franklin Barbecue in Austin is\u00a0legendary<\/a>. You can expect to wait three hours or more in person, and even celebrity won’t get\u00a0you a front of the line pass. President Obama may be the one exception. Luckily, if you’ve planned far enough in advance and you’re getting at least five pounds, you can pre-order for pickup.<\/a> But for a West Coaster who doesn’t get to Austin all that often (it’s been three years!), snagging a ticket to the Franklin Barbecue and Friends dinner at Feast Portland<\/a> was the answer to getting my fix. The morning tickets went on sale, I was silently praying this wouldn’t be the day our Internet connection went down.<\/p>\n

Needless to say, all of it — the brisket, ribs, sausages and pulled pork, really ARE that good. And Aaron Franklin really seems like a nice, down-to-earth guy. Even heads down, slicing\u00a0and serving, he chatted with each person\u00a0as they came through the line getting their plates filled. On a Friday night at the end of summer, there really wasn’t anything more\u00a0you could ask for than a plate of killer barbecue, a cold beer and a good chat. Well, maybe seconds.<\/p>\n
