Brisket & Beer Class: Presented by Zavala's Barbecue and Lone Star Beer

Led by Joe Zavala at Zavala's Barbecue. Learn to select, prep, trim, and season a brisket like a Texas pitmaster — the exact way they do it at Zavala's, a Texas Monthly Top 50 joint. This isn't a demo — it's a hands-on, inside look at how Top 50 BBQ is actually made. Come hungry, leave inspired.
