Yeah, County Line is a small chain restaurant. And yeah, it's a little cheesy. But it has delicious marbled brisket, kickass potato salad and the one we went to sits on a lake! What is not to like? And with a large group to feed tonight, it's perfect for casual fun and gluttony.
Our whole table decides (or I decided :) ) on The Cadillac: all-you-can-eat beef ribs, lean brisket, marbled brisket, chicken, sausage, ham and baby backs along with bread, soda, beans, coleslaw and potato salad come with. And ice cream!
| This wheat bread is like candy. Smear some butter on it. If I had a choice for an addiction, this would be it. |
I was surprised by how much flavor this potato salad had. Vinegary, salty, crunchy with celery, and flavored with dill. The tang was a good match for all the meat (scroll down).
| I love this potato salad. Can't think of a better one I've had recently. |
Now, for the main event. Texas is about beef BBQ and this place gives you that AND everything else.
| Ham, Chicken and Baby Backs all served with tangy sauce. |
When I have a choice, I go for the marbled brisket which is fatter and of course, tastier. Pile a little on the wheat bread and you are going to have a rodeo in your mouth. We got seconds of the beef ribs and the brisket. :)
| Beef ribs on top; brisket underneath. A few sausage tossed about. |
I still had room for dessert. Yay! The ice cream was part of The Cadillac deal. I convinced my friend Virginia and myself NOT to order their famous cobbler!! The ice cream was fresh tasting and I was not surprised to hear it was made by the restaurant. Not super creamy but again, fresh.

I had an idea! How about a root beer float!

And on top of this meal, a new work friend gave me ride back to my hotel in his kickass, immaculate, newish Ferrari!! Vroom vroom!
