Yeah, it's more just the regional stuff. But I've literally never heard of any other state being known for its Southwestern food, but I've heard plenty about Texas. And I have foodie relatives, so I just assume that's a thing. Like, I know NM is known one variety of chili that grows there, but I've never heard anything about Arizonan food.
That said, didn't dry rubs for barbecue originate out of Texas? I thought they did. They've definitely spread elsewhere, but I'm pretty sure the style of slow-cooking and/or smoking the meat with a rub and saucing later is a Texan thing.
Wiki is telling me that fajitas originated in Texas, too, as a style of cooking for native communities working out of rancher villages. That's pretty cool.
I know there are specific Texan-style chilis, but I don't know what they are. When I was in the hospital four years ago, I remember this one freaking Food Network show's chili episode played every single night (two nights, it played back-tp-back, I was dying). I remember them talking about Texan-style chili, but I don't remember what it was. And then Guy Fieri followed it. **** Food Network.
