Man I’m a Native Texan and I absolutely LOVE the direction Texas BBQ is going! Give me all the fusion!! It’s such a welcome change.
Austin local here- can confirm both KG and Kemuri are places friends have talked about and are not tourist traps! 👍🏻

I like traditional but it's always nice if they have fusion recipes that can appeal to people not worldly or daring but with touch of styles they can relate to .

@@d3neu i actually hate that type of fusion lol. It’s typically pretty uninteresting because it’s less thoughtful.
$15 is that a misprint? Menu shows different, lamb chops $8.50 per bone. How can that whole plate be $15??? That must be special price for Mike for promoting his business.
You're telling me that ENTIRE platter was only 15$? What an insane deal
@Stairsarehard
10 ай бұрын
Yeah i'm a bit skeptical of that being true considering the prices on the board, that plate is easily $30+ which is still a great deal for that much food but there's just no way they make money off that plate by charging only $15

Just the brisket rice bowl is $16.50 according to their website. Lamb chops $8.50 each, ribs $30 lb, brisket, $34 lb. Looks really good though. Would love to try.

They can make deals like that cause they use the whole animal like camel head, leg meat, tail. And people go wow that was so wonderful tasting . Cause they don't know how to cook those parts and there so tender and juicy.

I miss the travel food vlogging, where you would travel to somewhere for a period of time and travel around that country trying all different restaurants enjoying the country etc.. now your just bouncing around from place to place from episode to episode.. what set you apart from the other two major male food vloggers was you enjoyed the country and the food.. felt like watching a Traveling food vlogger, now its just like watching ads for specific restaurants
I'm here in Austin right now hope to see you if you are still here

@@theblackytdoyle5049are you dull حبيبي؟ This man is not profiting at $15 a plate. No reason anyone would sell food below cost. I don’t care how modest average Egyptian income, that’s quite irrelevant as he’s living in the US, where cost of living and cost of ingredients are far higher. He’d go broke next week.
This KG BBQ place is just OK. I would rate it 6.8/10. It is very ridiculously expensive which the video doesn't show at all. He showed a plate of bbq that cost no less than $150.00 with a $15 price tag in the corner. I've learned to take his recommendations with a grain of salt because all of the ones I've tried over the years since 2017, turn out to be just OK, whilst he slams places that are 10/10.

Definetly goin to the Egyptian BBQ, 15 bucks for all of that food and then just ribs for 16 in the Japanese place. Not saying its not delicious but price wise I' d go everyday to the Egyptian BBQ and the Japanese one maybe for a treat once in a while. If I ever go to Texas def gonna look for it. Love the video.
