Experts Say This Is Texas’ Best Beef Sandwich—Do You Agree?
Experts say this is the best beef sandwich in the great state of Texas, and while I have no reason not to believe them, I’m going to need to try it for myself.
Why I Trust loveFOOD for Must-Try Eats
I’m a big fan of the website loveFOOD. I frequent the site for content to share on our websites, but also to find grub to add to the endless list of eating joints I need to try.

The latest eatery to be added to the list is Pecan Lodge in Dallas, the home of “The Pitmaster,” the sandwich named the best beef sandwich in the Lone Star State. However, there’s more to it than just beef.
Pecan Lodge loads that bad boy up with brisket, pulled pork, sausage, slaw, and sauce. So, you'd better have one hell of an appetite if you attempt to tackle it. I’m pretty sure I can finish, but I’m 100% certain this guy can (and then some).
This Isn’t a Weekday Lunch for Me
I love sandwiches. It is one of my favorite lunches, so I eat several every week. But there’s no way on Earth I would attempt to eat “The Pitmaster” for lunch outside of the weekend. Otherwise, I wouldn’t get any work done in the afternoon. There’s nothing like a stuffed belly to kill my productivity.
Of course, there’s more to Pecan Lodge than “The Pitmaster.” Take a look at the menu here.
