BBQ 067: Top 50 Texas BBQ with Michael Wyont

You may remember Mike Wyont from a few weeks ago when we went to Louie's in Austin and got an update on his trailer and what's next for them. Michael has supported Luis Vasquez of Louie's BBQ through some tough times, but that doesn't mean it's rainbows and unicorns for Mr. Wyont. He's spent years going from a trailer in San Marcos to a trailer in Whitney and now happily in a remodeled bar on route 22 just down the street from downtown Whitney and the lake.

Mike has a long history in BBQ working in Lockhart at Black's and starting his own business from scratch. He saw an overnight change in business when he landed in the Texas Monthly Top 50 BBQ Joints. People came from all over Texas, and the world, to get a stamp and try some of his BBQ. I never got into the passport thing, I think mine is somewhere. Truly I just want to try all this great BBQ and meet the people making it.

Mike Wyont has a great spot in Whitney. There's tons of seating and parking in this remote locale. His staff works quickly and clearly enjoy the BBQ industry. They generously portion out his meat and sides like pros. Speaking of sides, Mike's training in classic French culinary techniques clearly shows through in the quality and consistency of his sides. From the perfectly chopped slaw and nicely seasoned corn to his tart and spicy homemade pickles. I wouldn't be surprised if they're selling these pickles by the jar (or the case) in the near future.

Here at Best BBQ we are constantly searching for great people cooking amazing food at the highest level. Flores BBQ does not disappoint. Mike Wyont is a perfectionist and it shows from the grace and care he takes with his BBQ. I'll be stopping by the next chance I get and I'll make sure it's one of the days he's making that beef rib. If there's one thing that I could eat as much as brisket, it's a beef rib.
