~ Tex-Mex Fajitas ~
The term ‘Tex-Mex’ entered American dialect as a nickname for the Texas Mexican Railway founded in 1877. It was the first railway that crossed the Rio Grande, connecting America to Mexico. Today the term is more commonly used to describe the fusion of Mexican and Southwest American cuisines.

~ Beef Brisket ~
Texas leads the nation in beef production, with almost 250,000 cattle farms that produce 13 million pounds of meat annually. Unbelievably (at least to those who haven’t visited Texas), the ‘Lone Star State’ actually has more heads of cattle than 43 other states have people. Dr. Pepper, created in Waco, Texas around 1885, serves as the base for our own sweet and tangy BBQ sauce.
