48 Hours Eating Houston’s Most LEGENDARY Food!

I went to Houston, Texas to find the best food in one of America’s most underrated food cities. This city is pure Texas. Smoke pouring out of BBQ pits, unbelievable Tex-Mex, some of the best Indian food in the country and a food culture built by generations of immigrants who turned Houston into one of the most diverse cities in America. I started at Truth BBQ for some of the best Texas BBQ I’ve ever had. Proper smoked brisket, insane bark, homemade sausages and barbecue done with ridiculous attention to detail. Then I headed to Brothers Tacos, a legendary Houston breakfast taco spot serving fresh tortillas loaded with bacon, eggs, potato and incredible homemade salsa. After that I visited Aga’s, the biggest Indian restaurant in America. Massive portions, incredible curries, buttery naan and some of the best Pakistani and Indian food in Texas. Then I stopped at El Patio for old-school Tex-Mex. The kind of place that feels frozen in time. Fajitas, enchiladas, queso and classic Houston comfort food. And finally I finished at Killen’s BBQ for more world-class Texas barbecue, smoked low and slow in true Houston style. Houston might not get the hype of New York, Los Angeles or Miami… but after this trip, I genuinely think it’s one of the best food cities in America.
