Texas, known for its vibrant food culture, is about to see a surge in Mexican chain restaurants spreading across the U.S. A recent report reveals exciting news for taco lovers, highlighting 12 chains in the spotlight, with Texas contributing a significant number to the list. Out of these, a remarkable 7 chains hail from the Lone Star State, with 5 being taco-centric.
The report outlines how many of these chains have been acquired by larger hospitality groups, paving the way for their expansion. Texas chains like Chuy’s, Fuzzy’s Taco Shop, and Taco Cabana are all set to increase their presence across the nation.
Here’s a look at the Texas-based chains gearing up for a national rollout:
While Texas chains dominate, there are five other non-Texas chains that are also preparing to spread their flavors across the U.S. It remains to be seen if any of these chains will venture into Texas territory.
Switching gears, let’s also highlight Barbs B Q, a barbecue joint in Lockhart that has recently grabbed attention on major culinary lists. Known for its innovative takes on barbecue, including dishes like sticky pork ribs and green spaghetti, Barbs B Q is led by 26-year-old pitmaster Chuck Charnichart, who has quickly become a sensation in the barbecue scene. This restaurant has made a splash since opening in May, appealing not just through its offbeat branding but also with a menu that pushes the boundaries of traditional barbecue.
Charnichart’s unique flavor combinations and vibrant dishes have earned Barbs B Q accolades, putting this establishment on the culinary map. Its innovative approach reflects a mix of youthful creativity and deep-rooted culinary tradition.
As we look forward to the anticipated growth of these Mexican chains, it’s clear that Texas remains a central hub for culinary innovation and flavor. From authentic tacos to innovative barbecue, the food scene in Texas is ever-evolving, showcasing the state’s rich cultural tapestry.
With so many restaurants gearing up for national expansion, it’s an exciting time for foodies who love how Texas is shaping the food landscape across the country.
