Hi everyone,
I'm going to have my surgery Denton (Dr. Stewart), in the distant future.
I live in NYC where there is no good BBQ in sight; To some this would be considered a crime against humanity, and I wholeheartedly agree. So, can anyone recommend some good BBQ places around Denton and Dallas? I've NEVER had good BBQ- ever- and I'm hoping to cross this off my list before the surgery.
Any recommendations are much appreciated! Thanks in advance :)

Not sure if fhere is a Spring Creek BBQ restaurant there but IMHO....they are the BEST !!!! Their hot rolls ( which they walk around asking everyone if they want more and they are HOT !!) are homemade Yeast rolls and to die for. Hopefully you will have your surgery before it gets too hot here in Texas. What surgery are you planning on having?? Good luck to you BTW.

I'm having my surgery in Denton, too! Dr. Stewart is wonderful....you're in good hands!
We were just there (pre-op test) and ate at The Texas Roadhouse. They don't have lots of BBQ choices, but they do have great ribs!! In fact, their ribs were voted 'best in North TX'! It's very close to Dr. Stewart's office, on I-35.
I had a steak - and it was cooked to perfection.....very tasty! My daughter had ribs and said they were some of the best she's ever had. That's saying a lot! :-)
Certainly there are some who live closer (I live in Houston) that will come along and share their favorite BBQ place.

This is over in Dallas in the medical district. After many suggestions from my husbands doc. I tried it while my husband had a 10 day stay at Zale-Lipshy. I thought it was great! IF you get a chance try them out!

When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better.
Asking Texans about what BBQ is best is (I'm only guessing) is like asking NYCers which hot dog is best. I wish you great luck in your picking from all these great ideas. My pick would be Angelo's BBQ in Ft. Worth, however any Dickey's BBQ in Denton right on I-35 which is pretty awesome as well.
The best of luck in your upcoming journey!

They all sound great!
I live just south of Denton and don't know of anything there...and, I'm personally not a fan of BBQ, BUT I know a lot of people with a lot of BBQ opinions!
According to all of the guys at my work the best in the area is the Hard 8. I've been there and it is really quite a fun atmosphere. Not your normal chain type of BBQ as there are only 3 locations throughout texas. It has the coolest pit where you select your food outdoors and is setup like a picnic. It's in Coppell which would be about a 20 minute drive for you (in Dallas terms this is nothing as we are so spread out). Again, I can't speak to quality of food (but others have told me) but for a NYer looking for something truly original and Texas...this is it.

The "Meshack" has finally reopened here in Garland after several years .. It was voted one of the top 5 BBQ places in the Dallas area a few months ago in D Magazine .. The couple that started it shut down many years ago to take other jobs, but recently decided to reopen it.
The new place has a take-out window only, and is located on Avenue "B", just a few blocks east of 1st Street. It's kinda hard to get to, in that you have to go east (one-way) on Ave. "D" off 1st, and then hook a u-turn onto "B" (one-way the other way) and come back west a block or two. It is on the south side of the street, and there is really not much room to park.
You're better to call in your order ahead, so you can run up to the counter and get it right away and take off again. 
At lunch time there are people and cars lined up for the great stuff ..
