They are closed with the Rona, doing mail order only.

The Aussie dude offended me.  Maybe episode 3 is better.  That ain't Q.

He was a wussie sort also.

That's one of the reasons I just don't ever watch those cooking show series where they feature a different place of the same style each episode.  Invariably they include a person grilling steaks as "BBQ" or a place that serves spaghetti sauce over noodles with beans as "chili."  

On the plus side, one of the better Austin BBQ restaurants just opened a new location near me way out here in the northwestern suburbs, and I tried it out on its first day last week.  I had brisket, pork spare ribs, beef rib, and sausage, and it was all really, really great.  Hopefully they can stay consistent.

no pulled pork?

oh thats right this aint North Carolina

I get our BBQ from a restaurant calld Spring Creek

They have a pulled pork sandwich with unsauced pulled pork and send the sauce in separate container

It to die for

apparently, you were famished 

It is interesting to me that BBQ is not much of a thing in the ATL.  When I was a kid, there were two places that had all you can eat catfish on Friday nights, and even as a 10 year old I could eat a lot of catfish.  Those places are closed long ago.  We have a LOT of Italian places, and up Buford highway all sorts of Asian and Mexican (by which I mean a place where I'd be the only non-Hispanic in the joint).  A pretty good noodle place opened near us, Silverlake Ramen, and all three cooks are Mexicans, nice folks.

I have a notion most of our ethnic foods are prepared by Mexicans.  We don't always see into the kitchen.  We have a lot of really good Indian places near us, and they do have Indian cooks.  Two of them are the best I've ever had.  One thing we lack in walking distance is a Korean place, but a Korean fried chicken place is opening soon.  I hope.  I'd hate to open in this climate.

There is even two American style restaurants not far from us, both have been here for ages and ages, and both are famous.  One is called Mary Mac's Tea Room, and the other is the Colonnade, which is hard to get into.  We really should go back, it's pretty decent.

I can't speak for Atlanta, Georgia, but it's certainly true that most workers in the back of restaurants throughout Texico are of Mexican descent.  Regardless of the type of food being served.

we had close to a thousand employees at Luthers that were back workers and Id estimate Hispanic made up better then 90%

In the main, they work hard, show up on time, and don't cause problems.

Absolutely.  Incredibly hard workers and typically very good attitudes about it.  Pretty easy to say that we either wouldn't have as many quality restaurants, or they'd all be much much more expensive, without all of those workers.
