Texas is a vast state, bigger than most countries, with a diverse cuisine that's often classified as "southern cooking" when in reality, it's a thing of its own. We will travel the state in search of the best foods in Texas, whether in a restaurant, a home, or a rodeo carnival. On our journey, we will meet interesting characters from all walks of life: barbecue legends, chuck wagon cowboys, wizened abuelitas, shrimpers, and gator farmers. We'll tell their stories and reveal their secrets to making great food. Each episode will wrap up in the kitchen where we'll show you a quick recipe inspired by our travels. less
