Texas food is pretty grim, but we we have some good stuff.

  • Beef is very cheap here, so if you like steaks, I'd recommend a nice steakhouse. Especially if you're European, y'alls steaks are the stuff of nightmares.

  • We also have good tex mex, which probably explains a lot of our obesity issues.

  • Watermelons here are both much better and much larger than anywhere else I've ever been.

  • Chicken fried steak does kick the shit out of schnitzel, even if mushroom sauce is amazing.

Otherwise we mostly import any cuisine worth a damn.

Bro - no mention of Texas BBQ? Beef brisket with Texas-style BBQ beans (savory, not sweet for those who haven't had them) is amazing.

Derp. Totally didn't think about it, I haven't been able to get any for years now.
