There are four Big 12 teams in Texas. There are two types of foods that define Texas cuisine: beef and Tex-Mex. We can’t do anything exclusive for any of the schools, so we’ll mix it up. Now, we ventured into the Tex-Mex range last week against Texas Tech, but this week, we’re foraying into beef barbecue. We’re also including some Tex-Mex dishes.
I have to admit, I’m a barbecue snob. I have very real opinions and feelings about barbecue and its varying styles. Before we go any further, y’all need to understand something: barbecuing is a style of cooking that involves low heat and long cooking times, grilling involves direct, high heat and short cooking times.
