Half the Aldi Finds aisle is usable beach stuff this time of year anyway.

There’s an Aldi on my drive back home. Never been but can’t wait to stop by next week and be severely disappointed

Pretty frustrating that Houston's grocery real estate landscape doesn't have need for one yet. You keep telling me wonderful things.

You will 100% hate it, I'm afraid.

Two different things for different purposes, but yeah I think it is. Buc-ee's is overrated. Love's is a more authentic experience as far as way too big truck stops go. Buc-ee's has good products but it's way too kitsch.

Never been to Aldi and no, I did not go to Alki on the first sunny day we’ve since like August.

Thanks a lot, Aldi enjoyers!

Love’s is my favorite. I go to it exclusively if given the choice. I have a Buc-ee’s coffee mug though, and their brisket sandwich was decent for an 10:00 dinner on the road

How'd they turn out? Tell me about your rub and/or sauce game.

Great, but just a bit dry. I was doing a bunch of other stuff, so didn’t monitor temp as closely as usual.

I’ve been using Famous Dave’s rib rub lately, because my wife likes it and prefers her ribs dry. I basted my ribs in a Carolina mustard sauce this time, to change things up.
