Get Ready! Pull Your Boots Up! Put Your Hats On! It’s Chefs For Farmers Time in Texas!
If you appreciate creative chefs and unique flavor profiles that deliver exceptional culinary experiences, then this event is perfect for you. It is one of the premier culinary events in Texas—and possibly the USA—bringing together top chefs, local farmers, and food enthusiasts. It’s truly a must-attend event!
I know this because I travel coast to coast, from Los Angeles to Miami and everywhere in between, exploring food events and searching for delicious dishes, creative chefs, and unique sweet treats. But you don’t have to travel everywhere; you can just attend the Chefs for Farmers event, and it’s like taking a food trip around the world without ever leaving Texas.
The festivities kick off each year with a week filled with activities for everyone to enjoy. No matter your taste preferences, there’s something for everyone. The chefs create fantastic dishes, showcasing meaty, savory, sweet options, and combinations of sweet and savory. Attendees can laugh, eat, drink, and savor wines or bubbly while enjoying the spirit of Texas throughout the week.
If you follow me, you know I’m the king of unique and colossal delicious discoveries as I travel coast to coast. I wanted to create the ultimate food list packed with BIG GAME deliciousness. Â
If you’re having a big game party for Super Bowl LIX or any big game this year, you’ll love my list of colossal foods and tasty snacks, chips, and sweets. These will make your party fun and unforgettable for your guests because everyone will love them.
I’ve enclosed all the information you need with LIVE links to each company. Just tap any highlighted link for information and ordering. I highly recommend ordering early due to heavy consumer demand on any BIG game day.
These boxes are so BIG, colorful, and impressive that they immediately create smiles on people’s faces and screams of joy. Their colossal taco boxes and Big game packs are simple awesomeness in a box. Velvet Taco is a temple to the liberated taco. It’s a unique taco concept serving premium food in a unique, funky, fast-casual setting. Founded on the idea that tacos don’t have to be associated with Tex-Mex cuisine and can be made with the same care and quality ingredients as fine dining, Velvet Taco is where “anything goes meets the art of the possible.”
I love their BIG tire-size pizzas. They’re a real game changer at any party. As soon as you fling the door open and walk sideways through the door carrying these colossal-size boxes, food lovers go crazy. The chow-down game is on full tilt. Since opening in Dallas nearly a decade ago, they’ve enjoyed serving slices and 30” Texas-sized pies to thousands of loyal guests.
I love The Slider Sleeve Boxes because they’re so creative. Each box contains an incredible display of eatable slider artwork. You can choose from fresh and creative sliders and sides for your BG game party. SOB uses organic Wagyu beef making their sliders crave-able from the first bite. They hand-bread the white meat chicken sliders and hand-craft the black bean patties in-house for their veg-heads.
You will love this Slider Sleeve because you can’t beat their meat!

There’s a new BBQ sheriff in Dallas, and his name is Chef Brandon Hurtado. He’s el jefe at Hurtado, and whether you want to enjoy some fresh and delicious authentic TEX-MEX BBQ or spice up your backyard BBQ experience, el jefe has got you covered.
Brandon and his wife Hannah have been slang’n BBQ since 2018, when they began at Division Brewing in Arlington, Texas.

Chef Stefon’s Fried Smoked Quail & Grits. So delicious!
As they’ve expanded their BBQ empire and operations, they’ve continued to elevate their menus and overall dining experiences. They simply offer something every BBQ lover craves—what I like to call H.D. HURTADO DELICIOUSNESS!
They recently hired a creative and talented Culinary Director, Top MOHAWK Chef Stefon Rishel. He has years of experience creating beautiful, curated culinary masterpieces loaded with deliciousness. Some of his dishes are so vibrant and beautiful that they resemble artwork more than food. But once you take your first bite, you can’t stop eating them. They are genuinely unforgettable because they’re loaded with deliciousness. That’s why is a perfect match to team up with HURTADO because it only intensifies the H.D. experience.
They just opened a new 4th location and their most prominent Hurtado BBQ. It’s located at the world-famous Dallas Farmers Market and is a stunning property. They created the new location, covering every detail to perfection. The space resembles an art gallery more than a BBQ joint, but knowing the Hurtado Team, they wouldn’t have it any other way.
The menu is loaded with a variety of flavorful and meaty eats, along with Chef Stefon’s creative (LTO’s) limited-time offerings. Stefon’s delicious dishes change weekly. This is fantastic because you can visit weekly and try something fresh, creative, and delicious.
I love the new location because you can enjoy some H.D. HURTADO DELICIOUSNESS. After your meal, you can head across the parking lot and shop at the Famers Market. They offer a wide variety of anything and everything you could want.
If you love Tex-Mex BBQ, creative and delicious eats, sweet desserts, and fantastic Hurtado family service, then head over and chow down. They are a NEW Trey’s Chow Down favorite and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
If you enjoy cooking at home and want to elevate your backyard experience, I highly recommend El Jefe’s new cookbook,BARBACOA. It has ideas for SMOKED MEATS, TACOS, TAMALES, and ENCHILADAS, as well as creative sides, appetizers, and desserts.
Thank you so much for following our culinary and travel adventures. We really appreciate it. Until next time, Stay hungry! Stay Kind! Love your neighbor, and always enjoy something delicious!
I hope you’re having a fantastic year so far in 2025. We travel across the USA frequently, road tripping in search of delicious food, creative chefs, and unique travel destinations. We wanted to explain what goes into speaking Texan.
Talking Texan involves various elements: syntax, cadence, pronunciation, and vocabulary. The most important thing to remember is that the “g” in the suffix “-ing” is often silent, so “fixing to” is pronounced as “fixin’ to.”
That traditional Texas twang—think Matthew McConaughey’s slow, Southern drawl—is evolving, though. Researchers at UT Austin found that about 80 percent of Texans had a classic Texas accent in the 1980s, but today only about a third of Texans do.
While the unique Texas dialect may be changing, these 10 iconic Texas sayings remain popular. If you’re moving to the DFW area, get ready to hear them regularly!
1.Word – Y’all
“Y’all” is a contraction for “you all,” and it’s the very heart of Texan speak. If you want to address more than one person, it’s never “you guys,” it’s “y’all.” (“All y’all” will also work.)
2. Word – Howdy
In place of hello, say “howdy.” It’s a greeting as Texan as cowboy boots and the Alamo. It’s friendly and casual, and it works quite well with a “y’all” at the end — howdy, y’all!
3. Don’t mess with Texas
You’veno doubt seen this phrase on everything from T-shirts to belt buckles. It’s been the unofficial slogan of the Lone Star State since 1985. While the rest of the country thinks it’s just a catchphrase, true Texans know it’s part of an
4. Everything’s bigger in Texas
It’s true. Everything is bigger in Texas, from people’s hair to their pickup trucks. Dallas leaves no doubt that it’s a big, bold city — B and G throughout the city. Tourists can stand in between the letters for one big (and cool) photo opp. Which leads to the next famous Texas saying …
5. Bigger’n Dallas
You’d use this expression when you want to say something is immediately noticeable. “Look at him up there bigger’nDallas!”
6. Fixin’ to
This is basically the state verb of Texas. There’sreally nothing to fix, though — this Texas saying means thatyou’re about to do something. Example: “I’mfixin’ to leave.”
7. All git-out
This means to a great degree, exceedingly, or as much as possible. As in: “She was happier’n all git-out!”
8. This ain’t my first rodeo
When you’ve been there and done that, this is the Texas saying you’d use. It means you’re no fool. You know exactlywhat you’re doing.
9. Hissy fit
You don’t want to mess with a Texan who’s throwing a hissy fit. This is an all-out tantrum with hollerin’, feet stompin’ — the works.
10. Coke vs Soda
Texans never ask for a soda, soft drink, or pop. It’s Coke — no matter what kind of carbonated refreshment they want.

Pizza Slayer’s and Slanger’s On ABC

This was important to me, because everyone likes pizza in one form or another. In fact, everyone I’ve ever met LOVES pizza!
If you’re a pizza lover looking for unique, fresh and delicious pizza, then you know it all starts with the dough. The dough is the biggest factor in what sets one joint apart from another. After that, it’s all about the sauce. Some trend towards the sweeter side, while others let the natural acidity shine through. From there, it’s all about using farm-fresh ingredients and vegetables. The combination of these aspects is what we’re looking for when finding unique and delicious pizza options in North Texas. It sounds easy, but believe you me, it ain’t easy to achieve the perfect pizza!
That being said, I think we’ve located some of the most unique and delicious pizza options in the North Texas area for everyone to enjoy. Each one offers something different, and is prepared with passion and love to create some delicious pizza.
Because each pizza joint is unique, there is no specific order to this list. If you love pizza like I do, then I would highly recommend you try each of them or pick one that’s close to you so you can enjoy some seriously delicious pizza.

When CANE ROSSO came on scene years ago, I had to make the trip because I had heard such great things about the concept. After my first visit in Dallas, I made my way in early one afternoon to the Fort Worth location on Magnolia Ave. If you follow my foodie adventures around the USA, then you know that I love to visit restaurants when it’s slow so I can engage with the managers and staff to learn a little more about the operation and history. That day I learned a lot about CANE ROSSO and understood why I fell in love with the concept.
I’ve never met owner Jay Jerrier, but I’ve always heard great things about him and his restaurant operations. I learned Jay started his concept after visiting Italy and tasting a true authentic Italian pizza. He fell in love, and the rest is history. Cane Rosso started in his backyard with a custom wood burning oven he had built. He was PASSIONATE about learning and perfecting the art and craft of authentic NEAPOLITAN STYLE PIZZA. They use the highest quality ingredients, handmade dough, mozzarella made in-house daily, fresh pasta, and unique takes on both traditional and modern Italian dishes. All pizzas are cooked at 900 degrees in their custom-built ovens.
He has created an UNFORGETTABLE restaurant and dining experience that you will love, because I sure do. My favorite eats are the MEAT BALLS, CHEESY GARLIC BREAD, and the PROSCIUTTO and ARUGULA PIZZA.

The name says it all! Slang’n authentic DETROIT STYLE PIZZA that is savory, thick and delicious. If you don’t know what DETROIT STYLE pizza is, then you’ve been missing something very unique. Detroit-style pizza is a deep-dish rectangular pizza topped with Wisconsin brick cheese and a cooked tomato-based sauce. The dough typically has a hydration level of 70 percent or higher, which creates an open, porous, chewy crust with a crisp exterior. Detroit-style pizza was invented in 1946 by an Italian immigrant named Gus Guerra, although the exact details are controversial. What can be agreed upon is that Guerra invented the style while trying to add new menu items at his neighborhood bar.
You are going to love the flavor profiles and deliciousness that Motor City offers. I’ve enjoyed the NEW BRUNCH/ BREAKFAST pizzas that are slathered in house gravy, OMG! OMG! Yea, I said GRAVY! GET YOU SOME OF THAT! I’ve also tried the DETROITER with OLD-WORLD PEPPERONI, and it was a F#$$% ticket to deliciousville.

MAMA’S has been around for decades, and I even worked at MAMA’S on Camp Bowie in Fort Worth slang’n pizza in high school during the summers. It never got old to me, and I love the MAMA’S unique flavors and the pillowy style crust. It’s what I like to call the MAMA’S FACTOR of DELICIOUSNESS.Â
Mama’s Pizza was founded in 1968 by Ed Stebbins on East Rosedale Street in Fort Worth. The Connecticut native, whose mother was from Naples, Italy, was then a student at Texas Wesleyan University and opened the pizzeria right across the street from the university. Stebbins couldn’t think of a good name for the pizzeria but decided upon Mama’s. In 1970, his mother-in-law, Elizabeth Biggs, joined the Mama’s staff and began taking orders behind the counter. She became known as “Mama,†and the moniker stuck. Jordan Scott inherited Mama’s on 2003 and has taken MAMA’S to new and exciting heights while retaining the MAMA’S FACTOR of DELICIOUSNESS. I love to order a double pepperoni and chow down. If you love PIZZA, then MAMA’S has to be on your list. Check them out and tell them OL’ TREY YA!
We discovered them by accident years ago. After our first visit I couldn’t believe the pizza was so delicious. Since that day we’ve made several trips to various locations and fell in love with GRIMALDI’S. The cook process is unique and one that requires skill and passion to facilitate properly. They do a masterful job at creating PIZZA DELICIOUSNESS for everyone to enjoy.
Grimaldi’s family business began with the opening of their first location under the Brooklyn Bridge in the borough’s DUMBO neighborhood. Grimaldi’s Pizzeria serves traditional coal-fired brick oven pizza using pizza-making traditions originating in Brooklyn over 100 years ago. Using only the freshest ingredients, and their ‘secret recipe’ dough that’s hand-tossed and made in house daily, their pizzas are prepared in their signature Coal-Fired Brick Ovens, which helps us deliver an authentic taste that’s not found in conventional oven pizza. They’re a family-friendly, casual, yet upscale, New York-themed restaurant. It’s their passion for pizza that made them a “must eat†for pizza lovers everywhere!

ZOLI’S New-York Style Pizza & Casual Italian – DFW Locations
A few years ago, I met someone in Fort Worth and they asked me if I’ve ever tried ZOLI’S? To which I replied, “WHO? WHAT IS A ZOLI?†The rest is HISTORY! We headed over the next day to chow down at ZOLI’S, and it was a fantastic restaurant and pizza experience. We discovered in our conversation with the manager that it was the sister company to CANE ROSSO, another love of mine. That’s when I understood why the deliciousness factor was in full-tilt-boogie.

DO YOU LOVE OOEY, GOOEY, MEATY, DELICIOUS DOUBLE CHEESEBURGERS? I discovered the BEST cheeseburger chain restaurants offering the BEST double cheeseburgers in AMERICA so you can enjoy them!
USA Best Chain Cheeseburger Restaurants on Dr. Phil
I’m so happy because it’s National Double Cheeseburger Day 2024in the USA! You can enjoy these burgers thoughout 2025. We decided to have a BURGER PARTY on Dr. Phil’s Merit Street TVwith my TOP TEN National chain burger choices. There are a multitude of fantastic national burger chains offering fresh, cheesy, and delicious double cheeseburger options. I know this because I’ve been in the BURGER business my entire life. I want to share my tasty burger discoveries with you so everyone can enjoy an unforgettable DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER.Â
I’ve eaten burgers coast to coast for decades and have noticed in my travels that burgers are one of the most sought-after sandwiches in the world. The burger business is crazy in the U.S.A. and the consumption numbers are unbelievable. We sold 50 billion burgers in 2023 alone in the USA. WHICH MEANS THE AVERAGE AMERICAN EATS ABOUT 3 BURGERS A WEEK. McDonald’s alone sells 75 burgers a second! What? Yes, 75 burgers a second! This roughly breaks down as 4,500 burgers every minute, 270,000 every hour, 6.48 million a day, and 2.36 billion burgers yearly. 50 Billion burgers sold in the USA is shocking, but I know how many folks love a succulent, savory, and delicious burger.
Let’s talk about what makes a DELICIOUS CHEESEBURGER. First, you have to start with a fresh and tasty bun. The patty has to be 100% beef combined with the freshest vegetables or toppings. When you combine these steps, you can achieve a very tasty burger. It’s important to remember that a mojority of chain restaurants use custom sauce creations and other creative options that creates a unique burger style for their brand.Â
All this being said let’s see who has the TOP 10 DOUBLE CHEESEBURGERS NATIONALLY so you can chow down.Â

We’ve visited thirty-one states on our BEST BBQ mission. It was only fitting after I read, researched, and viewed all the delicious social media posts Palmira was a must-visit for us.
If you follow our foodie and travel adventures, you know I love to tell the backstories. I’m a firm believer that anything tastes better with a good story. This is why the Palmira story was so intriguing to me because pitmaster and owner Hector Garatehas an interesting family history. Buckle up it’s story time!Â
When we visited, I was honored to spend some time with Hector walking around his smokehouse area and discussing the finer details of his success. We also discussed his passion for designing and creating custom smokers. He showed me his latest whole hog smoker and it was beautiful. After speaking with Hector, I noticed that his passion for creating BBQ perfection was only matched by his love for serving people and seeing them smile with the satisfaction of deliciousness.Â
Hector’s passion for BBQ started at an early age and has not stopped him from perfecting his craft since. Born in Puerto Rico, he was exposed to whole animal cooking pra early on. Hector specializes in smoking beef cheeks, brisket, whole hog, and house-made sausages. In the pursuit of creating the best product, Garate devoted their free time to building his custom cooking appliances, in particular an offset smoker. Hector has partnered with Brasstown Beef, Creekstone Farms, and Peculiar Pig Farms to source the most sustainable farm-to-table smoked meats for Charleston, SC through Palmira Barbecue. Palmira Barbecue’s name is an homage to Hector’s grandmother, who grew up on a sustainable cattle ranch.Â
