Gordon Ryan passing instructional is the correct answer for best single purchase. my passing game went from "hope and pray" to actually having a system within 2 months of drilling that content

Ray's BBQ Shack boudin links are the most Houston thing you can eat. BBQ meets Louisiana. Only in H-Town.

Houston BBQ being "underrated" is because food media is based in Austin and New York. If you live here you know.

HEB store brand stuff is genuinely good quality. Their creamy creations ice cream competes with Blue Bell. I said what I said.

Walmart grocery pickup changed my life. I don't go inside anymore. Order on the app, pull up, they load it. Under 5 minutes.

The Domain is the answer to the question "what if a mall had apartments." It's convenient. It's soulless. Both things are true.

southtown is gentrifying fast though. rents are creeping up

Tacos Tierra Caliente on Airline at midnight is a spiritual experience. Standing in a parking lot eating $2 al pastor tacos under fluorescent lights. Peak Houston.

I use a pellet grill and I'm tired of pretending I'm sorry about it. The brisket is good. My family loves it. I don't care about your offset smoker opinions.

I live in the Domain and I like it. Is it "real Austin"? No. Do I care? Also no. I can walk to dinner, walk to work, and my car sits in the garage all week.

The Woodlands Waterway at night is genuinely pleasant. Live music, restaurants, people walking. It's the closest thing Houston suburbs have to a downtown.

Property tax displacement is the quiet killer. You don't have to sell. But when your tax bill goes from $3K to $12K, you can't stay either.

I negotiated mine down $150 by showing them comparable units on Zillow that were cheaper. They'd rather keep a paying tenant than turn the unit. It's worth trying.

The Woodlands is beautiful but I-45 in the morning made me want to quit my job. Moved to the Heights and took a pay cut. Happier.

The Rockwall comparison is more apt. Similar vibes, similar trajectory. Rockwall just got there first because of the school district advantage.

broadway corridor is becoming incredible. restaurants, shops, everything

HEB for meat and produce, Aldi for everything else. Kroger only if I forgot something and it's 9pm.

The freedom is worth every extra dollar though. I can paint walls, have a dog, play music at midnight. After 6 years of apartment living the privacy alone is priceless.

Truth BBQ banana pudding is the best dessert item at any BBQ restaurant in Texas. I will accept no arguments.

Burns BBQ links are what Houston BBQ IS. Before the fancy craft BBQ wave, this was the tradition. Oak-smoked links with white bread and pickles. Respect the roots.

Pinkerton's beef rib is worth the drive from anywhere in the metro. It's a $35 piece of meat and you won't regret a single dollar.

Survived the 2020 bust. Got laid off on a Tuesday, severance check on Friday, job offer at a different company by the following Wednesday. Networking is everything.

I work downtown and live in Pflugerville. My commute is 55 minutes on a good day and 80 on a bad day. I hate I-35 with every fiber of my being.

moved here from stone oak and never looked back. walkability changes everything

The Westchase corridor during a bust is eerie. Half-empty office buildings, closed restaurants, tumbleweeds in parking garages.
