The Brutal Business of Texas BBQ

Download the CFO’s Guide to AI and Machine Learning at https://NetSuite.com/MODERNMBA In 2 decades, Texas barbecue has become an international icon of American tradition and craftsmanship.  What used to be an affordable, practical meal for blue collar families has evolved into a gourmet, Michelin-starred delicacy - drawing in tourists and locals who line up as early as 5AM to dine at the state’s most famous spots.  The South boasts the highest concentration of BBQ restaurants in the country. BBQ there is not just a meal, but a way of life, and each state has its own style.  Yet it’s the purist, no-sauce, brisket-first style of Texas that has earned national and global recognition.  But when we look past the romanticism and glorification, BBQ in Texas is a grueling business.  Owners work from dusk till dawn and only a lucky few ever make the spotlight. Yet no one knows how many BBQ spots there are in Texas or in the South - just that there’s a lot.  Ask any historian, old-school pitmaster, or LLM - and you’ll get wildly different numbers that are often thousands apart.   All the data available today is either hearsay or non-existent. No one’s been crazy enough to count—until now. We scraped over 200,000 listings across 9 states and verified each one manually to produce the first, truly accurate snapshot of the American BBQ industry.  With these numbers, we can truly understand just how extreme the Texas market really is.  The question remains - how do you distinguish yourself in the world’s most competitive barbecue market? In this Modern MBA Original, we drive 956 miles across Texas to understand what it takes to win in the face of saturation and the invisible gatekeepers pulling the strings on who thrives - and who must pave their own path.   🔥 AGAPE BBQ (Jeremy & Lonnie) 3610 Ranch to Market Rd 1869 Suite B, Liberty Hill, TX 78642 https://agapebbq.com/   / agapebbq     / agapebbq   🔥 BODACIOUS (Madilynne & Spencer) 2227 S Mobberly Ave, Longview, TX 75602 https://bodaciousonmobberly.com/   / bodacious_bbq_mobberly     / bodaciousonmobberly   🔥 KAFI BBQ (Salahodeen) 8140 N MacArthur Blvd #100, Irving, TX 75063 https://www.kafibbq.com/   / kafibbq     / kafibbq   🎬 Support Modern MBA: https://buymeacoffee.com/modernmba ☕ Support Modern MBA on Patreon:   / modernmba   🤳🏻 Follow Modern MBA TikTok:   / modernmba   📸 Follow Modern MBA Instagram:   / modern.mba   📖 Subscribe to Modern MBA Reddit:   / modernmba   🕊 Follow Modern MBA Twitter: https://x.com/modern_mba
