He lives in South Austin with 1,500 cookbooks and a 100-year-old wagon wheel for a pot rack.

In a story on the renaissance of beef jerky in today’s New York Times, the jerky made at Texas A&M University gets big praise. Part of the meat research at the university, this jerky is actually brined, smoked (over hickory ash) and dried for days, rather than flavored with liquid smoke and dried in commercial ovens in a few hours.
According to a report from the campus in College Station, A&M has been inundated with orders for the jerky. How will the Longhorns top this?

I remember getting this when I was in school there and it really is THAT good. Never had anything since that matched. Of course last time we checked, they wouldn’t ship it…hope that has changed and if not, it’s time for a pilgrimage.
