Texas BBQ Goes Vegan! (Well, Kinda Sorta)- Introducing #BBQProject2020– a new Initiative for All #BBQ #Restaurants to offer #Fresh #Veggies  from the #Grill by year #2020. This Video shot at Brown B Que Restaurant in Austin, Texas shows how it can be done. Special Thanks to Thurman, Claudia and Kenneth Brown (Long Lost Cousins).

The brave folks at Brown B Que in San Antonio were adventurous enough to cook a #Vegan Dish on a 40 year old Smoker, that had never met a Veggie before. Stay tuned for their surprising reactions. Special Cameo by Chef Mick Brown’s #Mom. Hope you enjoy!
