    Lines form before opening at this Seguin barbecue shop, where competition pitmasters Ernest Servantes and Dave Kirkland tend brisket and ribs of precise tenderness and delicate smoke. The industrial room fills completely, diners balancing rich meats with bright pickled okra and firm green beans—a formula that rewards patience.
