What’s changed at Angelo’s Barbecue in Fort Worth? Here’s a list to jog your memory
Hey, Bud! Do you remember what year Angelo’s Barbecue had to remove the sawdust from the floor?

Here’s the list of slow but steady changes since old faithful Angelo’s opened in 1958 at 2533 White Settlement Road: Pork ribs, 1973; table service, 1974; sawdust gone, 1978; air conditioning, 1992; light beer, 1992; smoked chicken, 1994; credit cards and fountain drinks, 2008; baked potatoes, 2017.
Hey, Bud! When Monday does the new Texas Monthly “50 Best Barbecue Joints” come out?
— Hungry already
In time for lunch, I hope. (Although the best-known barbecue restaurants open Mondays are the older favorites — Angelo’s, Cousin’s, Heim on Magnolia Avenue, Jambo’s on Division Street and Railhead.)
Hey, Bud! You have made some recommendations recently but the paper got thrown away. Is there a way to view your current and past recommendations on the internet?
