I hear you. I drove a truck for a while and the best food I could get is here in Texas.

Yes sir. I was a Southland (Southern CA cop for 8 years before returning to Texas and they had nothing but chain restaurants that served BBQ. In other words, they thought Chili's baby back ribs were the real deal. The only thing that held a candle to Texas was the Mexican mom and pop shops where we'd get our orders and eat them at our office (The hood of our cop cars). When I got back to Texas I spent every weekend at the Fort Worth Stock Yards Rodeo and made a point to go to Risky's BBQ where I became a freak show attraction as I destroyed plate after plate of the all you can eat beef ribs. I believe my record of 50 still stands.

Hutto has nearly if not exceeded 30,000 citizens.

Das Burnout Boi Thank you sir for replying. I prefer to remember Hutto and Taylor as they once were. When I moved away, both towns were the ideal of small town Texas and I miss that. Walmart had just built a store on the north side of Taylor and the Main Street was suffering for it. It was a much simpler time.
