Incredible time lapse video from our friends at Blood Bros. BBQ!
"Last week we made it 3 for 3 at the Red Dirt BBQ Festival in Tyler. This week we made it 4 for 4 at the Houston BBQ Festival.
The folks in Houston seem to have organized the smoothest running event we have been to yet. Even Texas Monthly could learn some tricks here."
