The combination of brisket and pickles might take a little getting use to for some of us, but it usually isn't long before we realize it's pretty good. What about brisket and....a Ferris wheel? One Texas BBQ joint is gaining lots of attention for this strange combo.

Everyone knows you can't put a frozen turkey straight into the fryer. Right?! These fried turkey fails are tragic and dangerous! Be entertained by these horrendous attempts at cooking, and then use these people as examples of what not to do in the back yard next week.

Why anyone ever leaves our beloved state of Texas is a mystery to me. Maybe a job calls your name or you want to get far, far away from your ex. Whatever the reason, there are many things you're gonna miss when you're gone. Like the bathrooms at Buc-ee's, and dance halls that are older than your great grandmother. What else?

Not every town with a population of 2000 people becomes a big tourist destination, but one East Texas town is quickly becoming a top spot for visitors. I've heard so much about this place that I had to do a little more digging to find out more!

Matthew McConaughey showing up on your doorstep with a frozen turkey is something that doesn't happen every day. Texas loves Matthew McConaughey, and we might have a lil competition now from Kentucky over who loves him more after this gem.

Texans can be big eaters, and sometimes that saves us money. How about a little weekend challenge? If you can polish off a monster burger at one restaurant in Nacogdoches, the meal is free. And it's just one of the Texas restaurants on a long list that will give you the opportunity to eat your way to victory.

Texans don't quit going to the beach just because it gets a little chilly. And since we're this far south, we've got some great beaches with year-round activities that are just a short drive away. The winter road trip will be on, and now is the time to plan it.

At Halloween, the key for kids' movies might be that they're not too spooky. Just enough cute fright is festive, and it won't keep the kids up in the wee hours with nightmares. Did Texas kids follow the trend? They might have gone a little creepy with their choice for the best spooky movie.

We love a holiday based on food. Texas is celebrating the greatness of chicken fried steak today (Thursday, October 26th), and that makes us wonder where you're gettin' yours. Some of these places serve up chicken fried steaks that are bigger than our heads!

East Texas farmers have been producing some tasty things through the summer and fall, the Lufkin Farmer's Market will celebrate that with a food and wine pairing event this Thursday.

Twelve bucks for a jumbo-sized bag of Halloween candy? Scary. The next thing we know we've spent fifty bucks or more planning for trick-or-treaters, and let's be honest, because we want to hold back a stash for ourselves. It happens. Save yourself some stress, and shop these stores for the lowest Halloween candy prices.

If this fish is caught today and posted on social media, it might go viral. But this monster was pulled out of a Texas lake so long ago no one seems to know about it. Til now!
