Texas BBQ: Mustang Creek’s Bohemian Sandwich-Brisket and Sausage Goodness

I recently did an assignment for Men’s Health Magazine that sent me to a few places that I wouldn’t have associated with health – but damn, the food was fantastic. One of those places was Mustang Creek BBQ in Louise, Texas. It’s about a two-hour drive southwest of Houston, and it sits along a quiet stretch of the road. The interesting fact about this part of Highway 59 is that there are 2-3 excellent smokehouses within thirty minutes of Mustang Creek. So as you make your pilgrimage to check out Mustang Creek, you can hit up a few more places as part of your Hwy 59 smoked meat tour, including Vincek’s Smokehouse, Junior’s Smokehouse, and Prasek’s Hillje Smokehouse.

Mustang Creek is pretty unassuming. You might miss the old gas-station-turned-BBQ-joint, but if you hit it at the right time of day, lunchtime, you see all the big Texas trucks parked out front. That’s a good sign – Texans know their BBQ, and if there are tons of trucks, it’s like a mark of approval. I spent the morning with the cooks and pit master at Mustang Creek. I got there as early as I could and hung out with the pit master as he smoked an entire pit full of brisket, sausage and chicken. The main reason I was there was to check out the Bohemian sandwich. It’s massive, loaded with a generous amount of brisket and Prasek’s smoked sausage, topped with a few thick slices of white onion and pickles, and all piled on a standard soft white bread bun.  The combination of the smoky brisket and the spicy sausage with a hint of onion makes for a nice bite; the flavors fill your mouth and you just want more. Hungry, yet? The picture I made is a good illustration of how it comes. It’s that big and it does taste as good as it looks. Start your cars, people…this one’s worth the haul.
