I'd happily receive any suggestions for how to spend that night in a way that won't leave me too knocked out for my presentation the next morning, but after giving the matter some thought, I think the most important question is this: Where's the best authentic Texas BBQ within a reasonable distance from the Medical Center?

I'm planning a bachelor party in Houston. Anyone have any suggestions? What to do, where to go, who to hire?

We're working on a pretty limited budget. Something along the lines of $30-$40 per guy with 10 guys in attendance.

Suggestions need not be Houston specific but any personal reviews of clubs or activities in Houston would be very welcome.
