Salt lick seems to be pretty popular with visitors to eat bbq, but what about Iguanas on Lake Travis? They have a great view of the lake and plenty of parking. Salt lick also has a pretty nice atmosphere from what I remember.
Not Iguana's Grill. Does have good view but parking lot stinks. It is rock/gravel and lots of pot holes. By the time you leave, some guys will have knocked off their front diffusers and tires and cars will be all white from the dust.......I'm thinking.......

so, lets get a date for this event...should we start a pole? I am guessing the weekends would be the best...how about labor day weekend?
