Master Chef
There was this Q joint in Lufkin Texas that had been there for as long as bigwheel has been around. It was an Icon. This place had the best Po Boy sandwich.
The name of the Place was Wagon Wheel BBQ. It was an old building with a rusted pipe sign with a wagon wheel mounted on it. I think you could park 5 cars in front of the place at one time.
When I stepped up to order I remember seeing a large cut of smoked beef sitting on a wooden chopping block and being under a heat lamp during the lunch rush.
I think I remeber the employee shaving the meat off with either a knife or a cheese cutter looking tool. I really don't think they used an electric meat slicer.
The sandwich was served on butcher paper with potato chips. Seems that I remember a thin sauce in a squirt bottle being on the table.
I am going to attempt to track down the family and beg them for the details as to what cut they used and maybe the sauce. I want to think they used a shoulder clod but I can't be sure.
I am thinking that this was nothing more than pit beef but it will be fun to track down Mr. Wagon Wheel.
