Some cooking is as big and bold as the state it comes from. Texas cooking is exactly that.

In this third book of the 50 States Gathering Table series, Waverly Finch travels the Lone Star State from the smoky BBQ pits of Central Texas to the Tex-Mex kitchens of San Antonio, the Gulf Coast seafood shacks of the coast, and the Czech and German bakeries of the Hill Country. These 50 recipes are a love letter to a state that has never done anything small — least of all its food.

Low and slow your way through a Central Texas smoked beef brisket with a bark so dark and a smoke ring so perfect it barely needs sauce. Roll out a batch of kolaches the way Czech settlers have been making them in the Hill Country since the 1880s. Fry up a chicken fried steak smothered in cream gravy thick enough to stand a fork in. And cool off with a slice of tres leches cake soaked in three kinds of milk — silky, sweet, and unmistakably Texas.

With stories woven between the recipes and techniques that honor the tradition, this book brings the Lone Star table home to your kitchen.
