Texas food that's REALLY Unhealthy..but I LOVE it! (Houston: buy, store)

[love roses]

Chips and Queso
bacon
biscuits and gravy
grandma's cooking (soggy green beans and all....especially her mac and cheese,homemade )/she's 90 and still cookin'!
Any cheesy, greasy Tex-Mex
stuff smothered in green chile (habit picked up in Colorado)
any chocolate dessert
meat smoked almost black, but tender inside
Coca cola and Root beer
beer and apple or pear cider
vodka
sardines on top of saltines
hot pork rinds

This list could go on and on!

TexReb, my good Friend, you know I gotta comment on this one......I will say the most evil (and by evil, I mean irresistible) Texas cuisine would have to be Texas Sheetcake.

Lorda Mercy....dang stuff is downright sinful. I still prefer Momma's pecan pie (by a smidge) back in OkieVille, but Texas Sheetcake gives that pecan pie a run for its money, LOL.

- A pound of sliced beef at one of a dozen places that most of you can name....."no that's ok sir......you can leave the fat on."
- chicken mole enchiladas (filled inside & on top with queso blanco) from that joint on Perrin Beitel in SA.
- King Ranch Chicken Casserole that my mom used to make.
- CFS from Ma Goodson's.
- Desert? How about that health food favorite......Tres Leches Cake!

Today, I will skip breakfast and have an early dinner at a little truck stop in Whitesboro, TX and I'll have their chicken fried steak.

It's not exactly hand breaded, but still amounts to probably 3/4 lb of meat, a pile of pan-fried taters, a salad and enough gravy to float a battleship. Yum, yum!

When I come out, I won't be able to breath, but who cares?

Hmmmm. Wonder what my Doctor would say if I invited him along?

Is that REAL gravy???? Not from a powdered packet?? Gonna have to hit the road!!

In the meantime, a person could try a fine plate of Skinny Fries at Skinny's in Weatherford......fries elevated to full glory with grilled onions and jalapenos.
