Manna Smoked Bar Bq

It's not much to look at from the outside -- a generic-looking restaurant storefront in a minimall behind a Jiffy Lube -- but this tiny, mom-and-pop restaurant makes meat that will knock your socks off. The beef, pork, and chicken I've tried have all been amazing -- tender, with a tangy, smoky sauce that caresses my throat and brings me back for more. The potato salad and other sides are solid, and there are slices of pecan pie are in the refrigerator waiting to finish off your meal. The food, plus a kid-friendly atmosphere and Texas tchotchkes on the wall, make Manna Smoked BBQ a memorable outing for those in search of quality down-home food.
