Anyone else around??
Nope. But I heard somewhere or another that you don’t mess with Texas
You’ve heard correctly. We’re pretty proud of our state.
Is this the GREAT STATE of SOUTH CAROLINA thread??
If you come to Texas I’ll adopt you. But no… This is the Texas thread!

Dang it I thought this was the Michigan thread… maybe I should put my glasses back on
My brother in law is from Michigan. Detroit area. He moved here to get a better job. And… He thinks Texas is better. 
Lived in Denton a few years. Miss the briskets!

I have a question for Texas folk; what constitutes Tex Mex? No one has been able to adequately explain this to me. I get dictionary definitions, but it still does not explain it.
Tex Mex started ages ago… Like 1800s. Here’s a decent article on it. https://theculturetrip.com/north-america/usa/texas/articles/a-brief-history-of-tex-mex-cuisine/
I finally read this. I am in love with TexMex already. Anything that invented these is okay in my book!!!
“fajitas, nachos, and chili con quest were created in Texas”
&
“ This gave rise to wheat tortillas, nachos, chili con carne, burritos, and barbacoa. “

I just made reservations for a biz trip at the end of April. I haven’t been down there in years. Staying at the Galleria. If there are any recommendations for fun things to do let me know.
