On Twitter Thursday, a map was widely shared showcasing the top American cities for barbecue. The map originated from the website, chefspencil.com, which was started as an online cookbook and resource for cooking advice by Paul Hegeman, a Dutch chef based in Sydney, Australia.
According to the site, the map is based on an analysis of TripAdvisor ratings of all BBQ joints in the nation’s top 75 largest cities and ranked the cities based on their average rating. The site s rankings were based on a review of 2,020 restaurants that offered barbecue items on their menu and had at least five reviews.
“From leaving Texans to literally freeze to death to letting a deadly virus have an open season on our residents, Governor Abbott has proven many times over that he neither understands the struggles of everyday Texans, nor does he care about doing his basic duty to protect them,” Hinojosa wrote.
“This will kill Texans,” he said.
Hinojosa’s Democratic ally Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo also pointed to last month’s winter storm in her response to Tuesday’s news, and warned that Abbott may be trying to distract Texans from our state government’s failures during that disaster. “At best,” she wrote, “today’s decision is wishful thinking. At worst, it is a cynical attempt to distract Texans from the failures of state oversight of our power grid.”
