Where's the not-to-miss place to go? Thanks! Tue Oct 19 08:53:18 -0700 2004 0 Rodan 1 504328 OK, so Matt Lauer should die for telling the world about this place, but I do like Willy Ray's. The brisket is tasty, done in-house over red oak. The people are nice, too, and happy to talk to you if you have intelligent BBQ questions. Tue Oct 19 17:36:08 -0700 2004 504319 0 Willy
