George, what you have
in your hand
is the exact
step-by-step instructions
on how to make my brisket.
I have never written it down
until tonight because...
I was afraid
someone might steal it.
But I'm entrusting
this to you,
and I hope that someday,
when the time is right,
you will see fit to share it
with one of your children.
Connie, I don't
know what to say.
Don't call me Connie.
-Call me Mom.
-(chuckles)
Thanks, Mom.
You're welcome, son.
Mmm.

spring, no later than mid-June.

ADULT SHELDON:
For the spice rub,
Meemaw had him drive
to New Orleans
to buy ground coffee
from Café Du Monde,
and seven ounces of something
called "holy ghost root"
from a voodoo woman
named Madam Laveau.
♪ Yeah...
Could you grind my root for me?
♪
I-I'm-a... I'm-a rub it
on brisket.

Rest.
Mmm. This Café Du Monde coffee
is very good.
They make it with chicory.
And what does it do
to the brisket?
Oh, I have no idea.
Then...
why did you send George
all the way to New Orleans?
Well, they don't sell this
around here.
Mmm.
Here we go.
15 years and 14 hours later.
Best brisket in Texas.
GEORGE SR.:
Connie, you evil bitch!
It's smoother
than regular coffee.
That wasn't the recipe.
You looked me in the eye,
and you lied to me.
Oh, Mom.
You broke into my home
and tried to steal it.
Oh, George.
You told her we
went over there?
(gasps)
Oh, George Jr.
I didn't say nothing.
I was cool.
I am loving this.
I don't want this woman
in my house anymore.
-She is my mother.
-She is the devil.
And what if the kids
want to see her?
Fine.
Schedule it
for when I'm not here.
Or when I'm dead.
