I can’t think of a better reason to make a life altering decision than to have some BBQ with a bunch of guys you’ve never met, 🤣🫣

that pretty much sums up applying at any major and asking if it's a good idea

If you’re looking for a great German place. Bout 10 min or so east of DAL- Kubys

Also a German deli, excellent beer selection.

Looking forward to it at new hire training!

I’ve done the Hard 8 in Stephenville as well. Apparently has a SWA connection (former owner was married to a SWA FA or something).

If you are into flying club stuff, don’t count out Coopers in Llano. Right near the airport. Well worth it. I’d say it beats the original Hard 8.

Is that Hard 8 the one by DFW? That's the one I've eaten at.....been a long time since we don't fly into DFW.

As a new hire, a few of us went downtown and ate at Pecan Lodge. It was good, but seemed like it was more hipster BBQ (BBQ in a nice restaurant setting).....if I'm paying BBQ prices I want the butcher paper, loaf of bread, table of sauces and a cow trough full of beer.

yeah probably the one in Coppell or the one in Frisco. Either one is centrally located for everybody.

Is Frisco the one in The Colony by Nebraska Furniture Mart on 121?

I have tried just about every BBQ joint in the metroplex, and I think Hutchin's in Mckinney is the best. It edges out Hard 8 by a nose and has free cobbler and ice cream. It’s a bit of a hike from DAL, but well worth it.
