Texas -
Where Tex met Mex
|
 |
Although Texas is famous for its sprawling beef cattle
ranches, cowboys and television westerns, it also farms
rice, originally brought to the state in covered wagons
by early settlers. Texas comes fourth in the rice
production ranks.
|
Rodeos are hugely popular
in Texas.
|
As well as Tex-Mex, popular state food includes Barbecue and Chuck Wagon with rice and beans featuring in all three. Texas has named its national dish as Chilli, which naturally enough is served with a generous plateful of freshly cooked, locally grown rice.
