Inman's is OK in my opinion, but I like Peete Mesquite's pork ribs because of the way they cook them. The pit is a rotating array of racks with coals below. As the rack rotates, the ribs baste the ones below. The ribs aren't as smoky as I would like, but they are juicy and falling-off-the-bone tender. Plus they use the St. Louis style ribs, which have the gristly, fatty knuckle on one end, and I do love having to wipe that grease off my mouth and fingers.
If you are ever through Tyler, try Stanley's for ribs. They are darned good and probably a close second to Peete Mesquite's. Just reading this makes me hungry. That knuckle is one of the best parts of the rib imho. Next time I'm through Marble Falls I may try Inmans and Peetes. As for Stanley's, I have the directions to there printed out and on the front passenger seat for next time I head through Tyler. What if yu get the ribs on the top rack?  Er, actually, St Louis style ribs have the "knuckle" piece removed creating a more rectangular shaped rib section. I normally leave that section on as well since it is such good eating. However, when I smoked up a few racks the other day, I went ahead and cut that whole end section off 1 rack before seasoning and smoking them. I also cut those into smaller portions about 3"-4" long then placed them on the smoker (I did apply just a small amount of salt and pepper). I smoked them till they were almost done but not quite. Pulled them off and set them on a plate to cool then vacuum sealead 2 to a package. Figure they will be a nice replacement for ham hocks in the next pot of pinto beans plus they have more meat than normal store bought smoked ham hocks do so once they cook in the pot, I will pull them out and debone them, putting the tender meat back in with the beans. Mmmmmmmm

Yeah that upper part that you cut off to make the St. Louis style, we always called that the "breaks". Never tried 'em in beans before. I usually leave them on unless room is tight on the smoker.
One of the barbecue joints in Terrell uses those "breaks" for ribs at their buffets.

Not too sure if anyone has mentioned this yet, so if someone has already I apologize. If you ever find yourself around Taylor,TX stop by Louie Mueller Barbecue. You will not be disappointed. Best BBQ I have ever had. Check it out. The restaurant was featured in Guy's "Diners, Drive-Ins, & Dives", pretty neat. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNpCNUY6gEQ

According to Texas Monthly - Buzzies in Kerrville. Won best brisket in the state over 1000 other entries last year. Actually, Franklin BBQ in Austin was chosen best at the Texas Monthly BBQ fest last October.

I didn't see anybody mention North Main BBQ in Euless. I can eat some BBQ and it gets a few bonus points for being all you can eat for like $8. Also its BYOB.  Shhhh! Don't tell anyone else! You want the lines to get stupid like Franklin's down in Austin? They were voted best ribs in the world twice. Their all-you-can-eat is now $15, but they still lose money on me. http://www.northmainbbq.com/ My BBQ blog: http://donobbq.blogspot.com/

Main street is 15.00 all you can eat. It has good ribs. Quality varies with the crowd . More people= better turn over= better eating.
