News reports of fire damage at Franklin's BBQ, Austin.

Restaurant is more-or-less OK, but the pit is a loss. Sadly ironic, given all the hurricane rain the city is getting, right now.

I was just in Charleston SC.. One of Franklin's pit crew opened a Texas style BBQ joint there.
Lewis BBQ.. I must admit it's some of the best brisket I've tasted since I was in Texas.. Delish!!
So if you can't make it to Austin, try Lewis's place.. Hope Franklin's is ok between the wind, fire and water.. Wait... what? where is the earth??
