We’re still hammering out the final report but we had ourselves a good ol time out in Leander Texas yesterday at the Hill Country Shoot Out Barbecue Cook Off.

Here’s a snap shot of Skip, one of the organizers of the event.

Time was when you could walk down the street in Austin and see plenty Texas men that looked about like this.

Pure Texas, proud and true.

Nowadays these gentleman are a vanishing breed in our increasingly urbanized city.
