Texas BBQ...not so much

So…there is this "concessionaire" on post, John's Best BBQ. While it does belong to John, I have strong reservations about whether or not it is the "best". One of my biggest complaints is that they don't have brisket. There is a big Texas state outline on the sign, and a Texas flag, as if to imply it is TEXAS BBQ. Without brisket, it is not. This morning, Stephen tells me that he talked to John, and here's the deeleeo: As a concessionaire on post, he is subject to the rules and regulations of the Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) and AAFES. One of them says that concessionaires must purchase the goods (meat, poatoes, etc) on the German economy. Since there is some kind of ban on European beef because of mad cow disease, John's Best BBQ does not serve beef. How 'bout that?!
