The "other place" is a little more expensive because it focuses on quality, like imported USDA brisket, beef ribs, as well as USDA chicken and pork shoulder. It also happens to be cooking barbeque the authentic way, with a hard wood (in this case apple) and over an extended period of time using low heat. Liquid smoke is cheap, China beef is cheap, and off the shelve barbeque sauce is cheap. Slap it together and throw it into an electric oven....wha la. With this, anybody can do barbeque, but I'm suprised someone from Texas actually would buy into it....or even bite into it. There's some pretty good coupons on shanghaiexpat.com so do yourself a favor.

I had a nice 3 meat combo with a rather inexpensive beer while listening to some nice live country music by a guy who looked like he was shipped from Amarillo. Dessert was great and had a good time with friends. My French friend even like it and thats hard to do. Service was excellent, I'm a student so price is somewhat important, the "other" bbq place is pretty expensive. The place was had an unusual amount of Chinese customers as well, go figure.

Last week we had 500 words on a pastrami sandwich - now 500 on a burger thing! perhaps it's time to go back to America where the burger things are better I suppose.

Chinese food with Chinese characteristics is great! Texas food with Chinese characteristics is not.

That meal, pictured, looks like a heart attack waiting to happen...

You guys complain too much about various things with "vibrant chinese characteristics".
