WHEREAS, Miss Mae's Bar-B-Que of Wimberley brought its savory |
|
|
specialties to the State Capitol during the 84th Legislative |
|
|
Session as one of the featured restaurants for "Bar-B-Quesday"; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Hosted on Tuesdays by State Representative Jason |
|
|
Isaac, this popular event provides a showcase for some of the finest |
|
|
barbecue establishments from House District 45; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The distinctive recipes featured at Miss Mae's |
|
|
Bar-B-Que originated with the grandmother of owner Steve Dunks; |
|
|
Miss Mae prepared barbecue for her family and the hands who worked |
|
|
on her ranch, and she went on to open the Red Barn Pit Bar-B-Que on |
|
|
the square in Wimberley in 1983; after her death in 1997, Mr. Dunks |
|
|
started his own restaurant and named it for his grandmother in order |
|
|
to carry on this flavorful family tradition; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Texas barbecue is renowned across the nation and |
|
|
around the world, and this proud culinary tradition is maintained |
|
|
and enriched by outstanding Central Texas businesses such as Miss |
|
|
Mae's Bar-B-Que; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby commend Miss Mae's Bar-B-Que for its |
|
|
participation in Bar-B-Quesday and extend sincere best wishes to |
|
|
Steve Dunks and his staff for continued success; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |

prepared for Miss Mae's Bar-B-Que as an expression of high regard by |
|
|
the Texas House of Representatives. |
