Culinary Traditions in Dallas
A blend of cultures, heritage, and the unique independent streak that Texas is known for has created a restaurant scene like no other:
Tex-Mex: Based on Mexican dishes, Texans made Tex-Mex their own, like fajitas, nachos, and anything with beef, black beans, wheat flour, or yellow cheese..
Texas-Style Barbecue: Texas-style barbecue starts with a dry rub, then the meat is cooked over a wood-burning pit to give it a smoky flavor. It’s most popular on beef brisket, pork ribs, and sausage.
Chicken Fried Steak: The ultimate comfort food, chicken fried steak is a breaded steak that’s fried and served with a creamy gravy.
Queso: Another Tex-Mex dish, queso is served as an appetizer or side. It’s made with melted cheese and chopped green chilies.
Kolache: When Czech immigrants came to Texas in the 1800s, they brought kolache. A sweet- or savory-filled pastry, this is now a popular Texas breakfast dish.
Chili: Authentic Texas-style chili doesn’t have beans, tomatoes, or any tomato-based products. It’s mostly meat and chili paste.
