Yes.

I have seen a photo of a Lancaster with all four engines painted with shark mouths.  It was a common theme.

LOL, your want GOOD BBq, go to "Black's BBQ" (google it you'll find it's close),  They been doing it for nearly 100 years and it's the best brisket, ribs, sausage I ever had in my 30+ years in Texas.    :rock

The Brit P40s of 112 squadron had them before the Flying Tigers.  They were the inspiration for the AVG P40s which were originally intended for the RAF in the Desert but were re-directed to the AVG.  If you want to track it further, the Brit P40s got their inspiration for the shark mouth from ZG 76 Me110s that were operating earlier then that.

That'd be a solid day trip from the Lantana area. They do have great bbq, though.

I knew vaguely something of the 110s with the shark mouths. Got a poster of it somewhere.

Guys....the PLANES!  Its the RC planes, not the BBQ!! lmao!!  They are enormous and the owner said he flies one or two of them every weekend.  The P-38 is brand new and he hasn't flown that one yet...he said he's too scared so I told him to call any of the 80th guys and they would handle it for him, lol

I wouldent feed my dog Blacks BBQ or Luling market. Airplanes be damed BBQ has ended more friendships than anything else in Texas. But the worst BBQ in Texas beats the crap anywhere else.

     Where do you think the AVG got the idea?  :D  Think it was Aussie P-40s in North Africa that had the teeth first and an AVG guy
saw a picture in a magazine and decided they were cool.

Heck, neither would I.  Feed the dogs the bad stuff, Black's goes in my mouth not the dogs  :lol  Located in Lockhart Bro, not Luling.

But I agree, "BBQ has ended more friendships than anything else in Texas", I've responded to more "10-10"s" (fight calls) over BBQ disputes, than I care to remember.

Thing about it is I now live in Alaska & would give ANYTHING for some TRUE Texan BBQ.  They haven't quite figured it out up here........BBQ Flubber?!?!?

But I dunno though... where did the guys in WWI get them from? ;) I didn't know there were any precursors to the flying tiger nose tningies.

Kreuz is better IMO. Lockhart BBQ is the best.


Blacks, Chisholm Trail, Kreuz's and Smittys.


Make the trip, you wont be disappointed  :rock

Thanks but NC BBQ has WAY too much clove and brown sugar and its generally grilled or open pit.  Visualize this as a difference:

Night before, rub ribs with Cajun Shake Dry Rib Rub...don't even try to argue one until you try this one...Cabellas and Bass Pro sells it.
St Louis cut ribs smoked with pecan wood for 2 hours at 225F with an apple juice moisture tray
At 2 hours, remove and wrap with foil AFTER adding a tablespoon of apple juice to the foil
For well done ribs with the fat completely rendered, add 3 more hours (don't worry about moistness, we take care of that below)
For a bit of fat, add 2 hours

Ok...here's the best part

With one hour left, take your fav BBQ sauce OR NOT and mix 1 part honey to 3 parts BBQ sauce and microwave for 2 mins full and stir
take the ribs off and baste with this concoction and then wrap in new foil and place the rib racks on top of each other in an empy igloo cooler for 45 mins (they'll be plenty hot)

For no sauce, grab your finest bottle of honey and hammer the ribs with the honey and continue with foil process above

After 45 mins has gone by in the cooler, cut and serve....or, grab each individual rib bone and twist it...it will come all the way out, bleached white and you can eat your ribs like a piece of pizza..

AWESOME AND UNCONTESTED!!

BEST SMOKED CHICKEN IN THE WORLD

Cut a whole chicken in half (leg each half) and rub the tops with French's yellow mustard...place them bone down in your smoker and cook at 230 or so for 2 hours....I don't have an answer as to why you would rather eat this chicken than have sex...but you will.  Do not feed your wives with this because they will want more chicken instead of you...but if you starve them, you might get both if your up to it.

Enjoy.

If its an early model meet, we are looking for a walnut AM radio faceplate for a 1934 Ford, two door sedan.  If you find one, please PM me....its the only original item we need for a complete, original restoration.
