Texas Food
Texas food covers a wide swath of culinary countryside, from chili and chicken fried steak to barbecue and Tex-Mex. The dozens of ethnic groups who helped settle this region left their mark in the many cooking styles found throughout the state, from Czech kolaches to German sausage to Mexican barbacoa.
Barbecue is no doubt one of the most popular--and most argued about--dishes found in the state, a sure topic of conversation.
