Landon Schott was brought to Fort Worth from Spokane, WA around 2018, mentored and financially backed by convicted pedophile and registered sex offender Robert Morris to whom Schott refers as the greatest of all time. Schott quickly gained allies and influence among Tarrant county right-wing politicians including Tim O'Hare and Sheriff Bill Waybourn.

Landon Schott learned to exploit the naive, gullible and willfully ignorant from his father Vincent Schott.

To his friends and family, Salahodeen Abdul-Kafi had always been a barbecue maven. A few years ago, he was unable to walk into Kroger to buy halal brisket and had to purchase from a specialty store to give his friends and family a taste of Texas. Now, Abdul-Kafi owns and operates Kafi BBQ, one of the highest-ranked barbecue restaurants in the country — where all items on the menu are halal, meaning the meat is suitable for Muslims to eat.

 “As a Muslim consumer and even as a non-pork consumer, it’s actually very hard to have barbecue in Texas,” Abdul-Kafi said. A tray of barbecue and sides is served up at Kafi BBQ on Sunday, July 19, 2026, in Irving. For first-timers, Owner Abdul-Kafi recommends trying the Wagyu brisket, Wagyu pomegranate-glazed burnt ends and Iraqi sausage. Every weekend for a year, Abdul-Kafi would take a break from his full-time job as a project manager to sell halal brisket out of his house. After continuous demand and a few large catering gigs, Kafi BBQ was born in Irving in December 2024, and is now located in a strip mall at 8140 N. MacArthur Blvd.

The meat from Kafi BBQ is locally sourced from halal farms and everything from the barbecue sauce, bread and pickles are made in-house at the restaurant. For meat to be considered halal and suitable for consumption by Muslims, animals must be healthy and treated humanely before slaughter. During slaughter, done in the name of God, the animal must be cut in one swift motion and drained of blood.

Abdul-Kafi drew inspiration for many of his recipes from his family. The Iraqi sausage comes from his dad. Basbousa, a wheat coconut cake soaked in rose water, is his mom’s recipe. The cardamom banana pudding was inspired by the cardamom tea his dad drinks before bed. Best halal BBQ, and best BBQ Some of Kafi BBQ’s biggest accolades are a top-12 spot in D Magazine’s best barbecue restaurants list, and recognition as one of the best new restaurants in the United States by Eater. “The goal of Kafi Barbecue wasn’t to make halal barbecue. It’s to make the best barbecue in Texas that happens to be halal,” Abdul-Kafi said. Salahodeen Abdul-Kafi is the owner and pitmaster at Kafi BBQ located in Irving. The goal for Abdul-Kafi is to be the best barbecue in Texas, that is also halal.

Ahmed Salad and Mustafe Ali are from Minnesota, but stopped into Kafi BBQ during a trip to Texas. Because of a lack of variety in Halal restaurants, neither of the men had tried barbecue besides brisket before their trip. BBQ bringing communities together “Texas is the home of barbecue,” Ali said. “This place is great because it brings Muslim people and people from all communities together.” The Wagyu beef back rib was both of their favorite menu items, and they agreed that getting to have the full plate experience, which included tasting banana pudding and peach cobbler for the first time, was incredible. Salad said he hoped places like Kafi BBQ would make Texans more welcoming to Muslims, seeing that they’re “adjusting to American culture.” People share BBQ around the family table at Kafi BBQ on Sunday, July 19, 2026, in Irving. Artwork of Abdul-Kafi and his family decorate the space telling the story of his parents’ recipes he draws inspiration from in his own cooking.

On a typical weekend, Kafi BBQ’s line of customers stretches to the door. When the restaurant starts selling out of menu items around 3 p.m. each day, Abdul-Kafi directs customers to neighboring businesses. He said that the Islamic approach is one of community and collective well-being over individualism. “In my perspective, if a competitor opens up right there, it’s fine, because my provision was already provided for me, and if that competitor opens up next door, and we’re no longer doing business, and we have to shut down, that’s also fine, because that was written for me. It’s not a big deal.” Salahodeen Abdul-Kafi serves up barbecue to a line of customers on Sunday, July 19.

In Islam, people are discouraged from throwing away food, and instead are encouraged to find alternate uses for food that they do not plan to eat. At Kafi BBQ, no food goes to waste. Trimmings from brisket are used for making sausages, baked beans, Texas Twinkies, and beef tallow for french fries, brisket empanadas and steaks. Abdul-Kafi said that the restaurant is probably the “most diverse” crowd in Texas barbecue, as he attracts Muslim and non-Muslim diners alike. The inside of the restaurant looks like any other Texas barbecue joint with long, family-style tables. The outdoor patio features custom-made bright red furniture imported from Turkey. Meg Nazworth came to eat at Kafi BBQ after having Halal barbecue last year and enjoying various Middle Eastern and African cuisines.

The spice used to season the brisket is a 12-spice blend that Abdul-Kafi created after some trial and error. It includes black pepper and other dark spices. Salahodeen Abdul-Kafi pours a pomegranate glaze over the Wagyu burnt ends. “It’s really good. I actually prefer the spice blends that they use to the traditional Texas spice blends and everything, so it’s nice to have some different flavors coming in,” she said. For Abdul-Kafi, making barbecue means providing first-time experiences to people who have traditionally been unable to eat it. “I want to produce something that everyone is excited about. It’s really heartwarming when I see people are really excited about the food that they’re eating, especially because it’s the very first time they’re ever having that meal in their life,” Abdul-Kafi said.
