The San Francisco Giants claimed the World Series as their own last night and as the bet goes, their mayor will receive a heapin’ mess of Texas barbecue.

The friendly wager between Arlington’s mayor and Frisco’s mayor has turned out to be quite the prize for the city by the bay.

Doesn’t that brisket look gorgeous? Pure beefy, smoky goodness. Makes you wonder if those Giants players were thinking of THIS as they were beating up on the Rangers.

Eat up, Mr. Newsom! You and your city deserve it!

Well played, sir. Well played.

Oh. My.

Isn’t this extraordinary?

Shortribs with macaroni and cheese. What absolute brilliance!

This amazing sandwich comes to us via Tastespotting.com from the guys at the Grilled Cheese Truck.

I now have a new obsession. I suspect you will too.

Enjoy . . . and remember to wipe the drool off your chin after you finish reading the recipe.

Oh, yeah. These guys know barbecue. And they know steak.

Put them both together and you have a dream come true.

In this video, this BBQ Pit Guys show us how to use a fantastic rub and cover that gorgeous steak in fresh salsa.

Delicioso!
