Mia Johnson, who has participated in the Prairie View trail ride for over fifty years, describes it as 'almost spiritual,' emphasizing the importance of working toward this goal throughout the year.
Arlington is the best street course circuit and event we have in IndyCar right now. It is the benchmark when it comes to the size of the circuit size, the IndyCar paddock, the suites and the overall experience. It really is the complete package, and that showed today with the sold-out crowd.
As new steakhouses and restaurant concepts continue to open across Midtown, what sets Delmonico's apart is something few competitors can claim - nearly two centuries of New York culinary history and a deep understanding of the city's dining culture.
Located just 24 miles southwest of Austin, Driftwood is a road trip-worthy spot beyond the barbecue. Here, you can sip award-winning wines in the heart of the Texas Hill Country AVA, tour a sotol distillery, and rest up in some of the cutest accommodations around.
The state park is more remote and rugged. We offer a more dispersed and self-guided experience. It's also a more relaxed choice for paddling trips, it's popular among birdwatchers, and it's also one of the best places in Texas to stargaze-after all, West Texas has the darkest skies in the state.
With the increased beef prices the last couple years, it's a pretty slim profit margin even at 12.99. Please find me any other restaurant where you can get a legit good steak dinner with salad & potato for $13.
In reality, the Lone Star State is vast-and incredibly diverse-spanning more than 250,000 square miles of major cities, small towns, beach getaways, country roads, and border communities. For travelers arriving in Texas, one thing quickly becomes clear: the Lone Star State isn't just one destination-it's many.
LongHorn offers its customers a call-ahead waitlist to shorten their waiting time. Every first-time LongHorn Steakhouse diner should know there are two ways to get on the waitlist: either by calling your chosen restaurant location or joining the waitlist online. If you're planning to visit LongHorn with a party larger than four, the online waitlist is not an option; you have to call.
When a business succeeds, it isn't necessarily because of some intricate business plan or elaborately devised model. Such is the case with Texas Roadhouse, a concept that was initially written down on a cocktail napkin before it blossomed into the enterprise we know today. As soon as founder Kent Taylor found investors for his dream, he quickly sketched out his vision using the resources available to him.
Located on Mustang Island, about 40 miles north of Corpus Christi, Texas, is the small beach town of Port Aransas. Recently designated the "Fishing Capital of Texas" in 2025, Port Aransas is known for its sugary white sand beaches (there are 18 miles of them) and its bay waters, which are packed with redfish, black drum, flounder, and mahi-mahi.
The world has been racing toward a more digital-first existence for some time now, and many believe we're actually most of the way there already. One of the key components of that existence is a digital financial system, but Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies have already shown us that the concept is certainly viable. Like it or not, the world is shifting in a more digitized direction, whether we like it or not.
Loving County, in northwest Texas, may have the highest trouble-to-resident ratio in the United States. With sixty-four inhabitants, as of the 2020 census, the county is the least populated in the country. Control of its top elected positions-sheriff, judge, constable, county clerk-can be swung by a handful of votes. Many of those vying for power are related to, and estranged from, their opponents. Election results are regularly challenged by the losing candidate, sometimes repeatedly;
When surveying the best pizza places in every state, one Dallas-based operation stands out in the Lone Star State. Cane Rosso delivers on its claim of serving up the most authentic wood-fired Neapolitan pizzas in Texas. Restaurant owner Jay Jerrier first tasted true Neapolitan pizza during his honeymoon in Italy, and the experience changed his life. The fresh flavors and creamy cheese had a lasting impact on the entrepreneur and inspired him to learn how to make fresh mozzarella and use a wood-burning oven.
A truly good steak means sourcing high-quality meats that are handled, aged, and then cooked perfectly. Add in attention to sides, expertise in wine pairings, and it's easy to see how things might be better left to the professionals. Many of the best steakhouses across the U.S. are independently owned and operated, but we'd like to shine the spotlight on smaller, regional chains that are doing everything right, too.
There's something to be said about the appeal of chain restaurants. In theory, customers can walk into any location and get much the same experience. There's nothing wrong with that, especially considering some chains take quality seriously. Chain barbecue restaurants are fewer and farther between than, say, steakhouse chains, and that's because of some unique challenges, including the differences between beloved regional styles. However, the one thing that unites great barbecue is the need for great sides - which is why we're here.
