Our first stop is Salt Traders in Round Rock where Gulf Coast classics get the 'Gilmore' treatment...Chef Jack Gilmore that is! It starts with his show-stopping Chowda Fries, a recipe we'll have for you this weekend! Plus, how you and a guest can win dinner for two! Then, bring a big appetite for Little Gretel! This Boerne bistro boasts authentic Czech cuisine from a Chef/Owner who embodies the American Dream. Hear her incredible story and stick around for a schnitzel. ;) Last but certainly not least, all aboard Bernie's Burger Bus! The Detention Burger [above] is just one of the many jaw-dropping creations you'll encounter at this old school Houston hotspot! |
Ever wonder what your favorite local brewers are serving up this time of year? Seasonal pints a'plenty, sure, but the grub is often just as good!
Here's a few cool fixin's from Texas breweries you're bound to recognize. For starters, Houston's own Karbach Brewing Company set us up with these gorgeous Grilled Brined Pork Chops [above] made using their Weekend Warrior Pale Ale. Proof that beer belongs at your table! |
Most of us love a good pinot because they can pair with a ton of different food, especially during the cooler months. We have three picks from Oregon's Willamette Valley that you can find right now at your local H-E-B.
Evening Land is an excellent pinot noir from Rajat Parr - one of my wine heroes! Great with any wild game dishes or other smoky entrées you may have in mind... |
