I think many of you know my Texas roots! I was born and raised in good ole East Texas and yes I still have the twang when I go back especially to my hometown! This is the kinda food that really is the heart and soul of Texas to me. Good ole southern soul food! It definitely adds a little bit of fat to the hips but hey its worth it right :-).

Above you will see my stand by, the chicken fried chicken. So many from Cali ask if this is fried chicken and as you can see the answer is no! It is actually chicken that has been tenderized, breaded and then fried! Top it off with some white gravy and good ole fried okra! Delicious! For the record, I can eat about 1/2 of that and there are always leftovers!

Below is the Aus-Tex wings. These are super spicy with a bbq flavor. Great starter!


Their BBQ sausage here is really good! And I do mean really good. Lots of seasonings to the point where you do not need any sauce at all! Note the amazing sweet potatoes on the side! They are sweet gooey oodles of goodness! The green beans are flavored with bacon too!


Last but certainly not least - the game changer, the winner, the sweet stuff of people's dreams - drumroll please! The blackberry cobbler - a seasonal speciality that will melt in your mouth and make you want to cry when you can't get it! Okay so maybe I am talking it up a tad - suffice to say if you go and see it on the menu, get it!
