Houstonians must be doing something right, as the barbecue gods have been really generous to our city as of late. A couple of weeks ago, Q for a Cause brought Austin-based barbecue legend John Mueller, his pits, his food, and his team to Cottonwood. This past weekend, Killen's Barbecue was served inside the loop not once, but twice: Saturday at Haven, during a benefit for the fire-ravaged My Dee Dee's Pie Shoppe, and Sunday at Q the Wine, a "Killen's Barbecue Pop Up & Syrahvolution at Paulie's and Camerata."
Together with a crowd of more than 100 people, I attended Sunday's incredibly successful Pop Up & Syrahvolution. I say incredibly successful because people were so excited to have Killen's Barbecue inside the loop (currently, the only way to obtain it is to trek over to a barbecue pop up at Killen's Steakhouse in Pearland) that they bought pounds upon pounds of meats, happily waiting in line for an hour or more.
