You'd just be crazy not to visit this award-winning Deep Ellum BBQ mecca, just follow the mouthwatering smell (and the line) down Main St. When it was first announced that Pecan Lodge was coming to Deep Ellum, my heart and waistline began to soar. This is not only some of the best barbeque in Deep Ellum, but in our opinion in Dallas and Texas as well. We usually do a two meat plate - can't go wrong with brisket and pork ribs. If you are wearing your elastic pants, then go for a beef rib too - what the heck! Bottom line is - everything on Justin Fourton's menu from meat to sides to dessert is delicious. It's true Texas barbeque and that's just how we like it.
