As I had hoped, I would be getting my video creation chops back… Over time, I will begin to create more elaborate videos related to fromtube2table, but here’s a first go-round— a clip of Saturday night music at Stiles Switch in North Austin.

Dang, the issue with using these new-fangled video cameras is they are way too automatic in nature. hence, outside shots are in focus but inside fuzzy. Time to get back to my old standby video camera.

Oh, BTW, the food and music at Stiles Switch was memorable. As Always

The Daily Beast, part of Newsweek, has proclaimed the best places to eat in the world in its most recent posting. Sticking with North America, City Market in Luling, Texas made the list. The one time we drove by on our way to Houston it was closed so that means we have to make the 63 minute trek down that way to sample some of its wonder.

BBQ guru Steven Raichlen is coming to Austin. Will he cook on stage or just make us hungry with tales of why Texas barbecue is so wonderful?

Videos on food trucks. Videos about BBQ. Videos about all things Texas food that rant on for hours. Blah blah…Here’s a clip from Food Republic that no only explains the differences in regional BBQ fare, it does so in under one minute.

Yep, I’ll be there.

I’ve been hearing all day about Aaron Franklin’ debut last night on BBQ Pitmasters (on the Destination American channel, aka Planet Green Network). I doubt it’s a great venue to learn a lot about Franklin, his gentle-yet-determined demeanor and the resulting glory that satisfies legions of food fans.

This clip from Southern Living does a far better job showing Frankllin (and a number of other great pitmasters).
