Seguin has a place called Taco Tejano that use to be an old Diary Queen, now a Mom & Pop taqueria. Amazing Tacos!!!

As much as I love the taqueria's in Seguin
have you guys visited Luling, a short drive outside of Seguin? It is home to the Luling Meat Market. Simply a MUST for BBQ lovers!!

I'm a native Texan living in NYC for the past 8 years. But anytime I'm in Texas I visit Seguin for the best tacos to be found and then Luling for the BBQ.. Please try if you can, you will not be dissapointed!!!

Thanks Mychael
We have been to Luling a time or two.
Check out the stories and photos from Luling City Market in
my BBQ book: Legends of Texas Barbecue Cookbook


Meanwhile, have you ever had the chile relleno at El Ranchito in Seguin? It's on our Vintage Tex-Mex list in the Temples of Tex-Mex feature.

Hello Rob
My apoligies for the delayed response- sometimes my job keeps me traveling more than expected. In regards to one of Seguin's staple of Tex-Mex (El Ranchito) "Hell Yes" the chille relleno their is fantastic!!!
I will most certainly find and purchase your book. Not having read your book, I hope you enjoyed your trips to Luling's City Market as much as I have since childhood. I wish you continued success and adventures on your articles. I truly look forward to reading about your latest Texas Offbeat Treasures.
