I tend to not like when there is TOO much bread to bite through but it was great. Like a perfect sized pocket with delicious pulled pork, bbq sauce and onions so beautifully stuffed inside. I also got a side of sausage because that is by far my favorite piece of meat when it comes to bbq. NONE of it disappointed me and I loved that he was so friendly and told me about some of the other food trailers around him that weren't open at the moment. He truly made me want to come back and try EVERY single one. Which I will...but I am definitely glad I chose him first! Thank you for the delicious lunch and wonderful customer service! Will definitely be bringing my husband by next time!

Here is an email from the owner. Classy, bordering on threatening. This has been reported to yelp and the property for which your food truck sits on sir. You are funny. If you have anything against my establishment, come speak to me professionally. Not through Yelp. I have never ever sold out before 12 pm. Not even Franklins does that. I find these complaints to be fictitious and causing malice. Please come and speak to me like a professional and stop hiding behind these words.

Their menu is pretty well set up and I went during halftime after smelling the classic greasy aroma of a man's burger nearby. I ordered the loaded pulled pork fries ($10) which came with fries, pulled pork, queso, special seasoning, bbq sauce, pickles, and onions. Jalapeños were optional for 75 cents. The man taking orders was a very friendly family man. His daughter took the card payments and was cute. Service was super fast. Knocking a star for the pork to fry ratio and there lacked a sense of smoke in the meat. Would love to try their burgers!

Let my start by saying not all of the photos for Thurman's mansion are truly this event space…read more This is the building with the large front lawn and large columns. It has a semi large ballroom that would easily house 125. The floors are a nice terra-cotta tile and this space has large windows. On the right hand side there are a few windows with stained glass. Check the photo I posted they are very lovely. At the very end of the room is a distinctive wooden bar. The wood is stained dark and it has an aged look to it. There are double doors that lead to the 1st floor patio. This area is a very nice space for cocktails, I would date say you could get 50 to 75 people out there. Beyond the patio are red brick stairs that lead to the large lawn. The large lawn is where you can play lawn games and or hold a ceremony. I will be honest you can hear some of the traffic on the main road. I am sure that would be less noticeable if soft music was playing.the next thing I noticed about this place is that the upstairs are dedicated to the wedding party. There is a suite for the bride and the groom both with their own bathroom. There is also an elevator and a sitting area outside of the suites where a quick meal might be had. All and all I think this is a cute venue. It's an attractive property and all the chartering is handled by Salt Lick.

Hand me a parasol, lace up my corset and find me a Mr. Darcy--this place was from another time!!…read more *contented sigh, I was fortunate enough to be invited to a wedding held out at Thurman's Mansion this past weekend. What a beautiful venue!! I had never even heard of it until I got the invitation. Thurman's Mansion is part of the Salt Lick Family--located just East of the Salt Lick on 1826. Gorgeous iron gates pique the curiousity of drivers and beckon guests in. The venue is a large mansion overlooking well manicured grounds and vineyards. The view of the mansion from the back is just breathtaking. A huge porch covers the back of the building--dramatic pillars hold up a second story balcony. Wide steps lead up from the grounds to the back doors of the reception hallf/main room. I saw the mansion on two different days in two very different ways--Friday afternoon for the rehearsal, I saw it set up for an outdoor wedding. The sun shining down, bride practicing her walk from the sweeping steps of the mansion down to the corner of the lawn where the trellace waited, people lining the stone walls around the perimeter of the lawn watching the practice. I felt like I stepped into a Jane Austen movie--my friend had planned a glorious outdoor wedding on the grounds. Much to her dismay, God and the torrential downpours decided that it would be better to have the ceremony indoors. Rather than ceremony outside and reception inside, both ceremony and reception were inside. The staff had set up about 40 chairs where the dance floor would have been. Double doors were open at the back of the small seating area allowing the pitter-pattering of the rain outside as the background music while they exchanged vows. The reception was a seated dinner for about 150 guests. Salt lick does catering--very fun to have the family style dinner Texas Style w/ cobbler as dessert. A nice alternative to the traditional wedding scene. The porch was a great place for conversation and mingling--they had the bar and some hors d'eouvres set up out there while the guests waited for pictures to be taken. The rain let up for exactly an hour--enough time for outdoor pictures! I honestly think that my friend got the best of both worlds...a unique, beautiful, romantic and intimate indoor wedding ceremony complete with rain and tears. Then outdoor pictures overlooking the vineyards with the mist hovering over the land. I swear I could hear Mr. Darcy beckoning to me while I watched from the porch... My hat goes off to you, Thurman's Mansion. You successfully transported me to another time. Bravo.

I came here for an April wedding and this venue is truly spectacular. Located on a hill, the…read moreincredible views are 360 degrees. The ceremony was on a grassy area with a beautiful alter facade. The reception area was truly the showstopper. The view was beautiful all around. There were archways everywhere you looked with the most scenic Hill Country views you could ask for. The dance floor protruded out one of the archways so that you could dance under the stars. Truly breathtaking. My only complaint was the terrain. The area where we had cocktail hour, as well as the walk to the ceremony, was very jagged and rocky. You would not believe the staircase down to the grass. There were rough steps and wobbly branches as handrails. The reception had flat cement floors, but again, the outside bar area was very hazardous in heels. The bride and bridal party had cowboy boots on, so this was mainly the brides fault for not including this bit of information about the difficult terrain in the invitation. Apparently many guests were aware of this, but as a plus 1, how was I to know? Something should have been mentioned in the invitation, or on the bride and groom's website.

My brother and his wife searched all over for the perfect wedding venue and found it at Rancho Mirando. After spending 4 days in the hacienda on property, I understand why. Leslie and her team will do any and everything to deliver the best experience possible. Their guidance, service, and friendship really made the wedding weekend go from very good to unforgettable. To say they go above and beyond is an understatement! I think Leslie even managed to turn down the June in Texas heat for the rehearsal dinner and wedding reception! My kids loved playing on the grounds, in the pool, and in the very kid/family friendly game room within the hacienda. If anyone is looking for a fantastic wedding venue where lifelong memories can be made with family and friends close by, you will not go wrong with Rancho Mirando.

Awesome food (not only for tourists but especially for locals in a food desert)…read more I've found a sense of community at this establishment which is something I think a lot of locals in this remote area need! The potato skins might as well be a baked potato they are so loaded. I have a burger tattoo I love burgers so much. I can't decide if I like Maven's burgers or their sliders better. I suppose it just depends on my mouth's girth's mood. Also notable- the bacon wrapped dates and the Mac n cheese. They have events (bingo, karaoke, etc) damn near every night if they don't have live music. You may even see the owners frying fries and/or waitressing tables. This place is small town in the best way and we are so grateful for it!

It's a clown show. The music is terrible. The food is okay. The bartenders are inconsistent. And the staffing is so minimal that it takes a while to even let someone know you've arrived. You will need at least 1.5hrs for a meal because service is so slow. And you'll need to add the additional time to even be recognized as a customer.

We stayed in two of the large "tents" and one of the smaller cabins. It has a wonderful rustic flair to make you really feel like you've gotten out of the big city, but still comfortable enough with the temperature controlled setting and the wonderful mattresses to make sure you're well rested. They have a variety of things in a large plot of land, including a river you can swim in, various trails to take your golf carts around so you can see a variety of wildlife, including deer and armadillos, a very nice pool and hot tub with a full bar right next to it, and other small things, including a cornhole set and a Pickleball court. What I think blew me away, though was the incredible hospitality of those who worked there, they were genuine interested in making sure that we were as comfortable and happy as possible, and the very delicious breakfast that they made for the house, the pond request. Whether you're with the family, having a romantic getaway, or just simply wanting to enjoy the beauty of the Hill country, I cannot recommend this location enough.
