There's a proper way to do Central Texas barbecue -- salt-and-pepper-rubbed and cooked over an oak wood fire -- and an improper way. You can bet that the meat coming out of Proper Pig Smokehouse falls into the former category. After delighting shoppers from a food truck at the Cleveland Flea, the down-home barbecue specialist set up permanent shop in Lakewood. There are four pillars to the menu: pulled pork, smoked turkey breast, beef brisket, and Texas hot link sausage. Sides like baked beans and mustardy potato salad are available, but don't overcrowd your plate -- enjoy your food the Central Texan way and let the meat shine through.
