Armadillo Willy's BBQ

http://www.armadillowillys.com/

Everything cooked over oak and hickory, not gas, not electrons.
Started by the two guys who are still doing it.
Pork, beef, chicken, turkey. Many locations do bbq catering (and they do it well).

They also sell bbq sauce; we like the jalapeño stuff a lot.

Locations are from my first attempt dealing with batch geocoding -- I'll check 'em for sanity!

Talk to Ivan; he'll set you up. (Not affiliated, just a happy customer.)

Can you good folks include the long and lat so our maintainer can more easily complete his duties? Google Earth is our friend

GoFish will surely appreciate help with the coordinates.

I do not have access to get the coordinates at this time. My faster computer with Google Earth is not feeling well at the moment.

I know there are a bunch in Texas. I hope we have some Texans putting that together for this project.

GE says its Denver, not Lakewood (even though it appears to be closer to Lakewood on the map) but in any event the coordinates are:

-105.108960,39.669586

It is shown on the north side of Morrison Rd, just east of the intersection of S Kipling St (Rt-25) - does that sound right?

Here are two Google maps with fairly comprehensive listings of Texas bbq joints. I had nothing to do with creating these maps, but I can attest to the quality of many of the places listed. The map annotations don't give coordinates for the locations, but some enterprising soul could geocode them.

Mourton, These need to be in decimal degrees for coordinates such as -123.12345,34.98765 Thanks

I appreciate it but I would like to try to keep ones that most contributors have tried or heard about by word of mouth; since one of the maps was in 2003 I would be afraid of someone traveling only to find out it is closed for good. ( Quote-The map annotations don't give coordinates for the locations, but some enterprising soul could geocode them. ) besides I don't know any enterprising souls.
