You may be Texan if…

[TheOddOneOut]

I have no clue what a buc-ee is.

Thankfully I don’t see Texas flags on a minute-ly basis

We respect the speed limits because we value our lives and others

Never had chicken fried steak

Love my state to the mountaintops and back

What is blue bell ice cream?

Only in the summer.

Ew, ow, no.

Of course i own a coat. It was snowing yesterday.

What is a Tex Nex?

No, bless your heart, dear.

All y’all, shush. Ouch, no, my mouth just cringed with the force of a thousand missing erasers.

I don’t know what a blue bonnet is. Is it a tree? I think that would technically be called a forest then.

Never heard of go texans day.

Nope. He’s dead, so..

Isn’t it a flat desert? With the tumbleweeds?

Ick, no. We don’t even really have those here.

Nope.

No…

Never.

I do know who Santa Anna was.

Frito pie is yummy but disgustingly greasy and cheesy.

I am not Texan, even if i wanted to be.

Emma whaddaya think? Like me less?

I live in Texas, and probably satisfy most of those checklist items except:

Never get chicken-fried steak in a diner. It's never as good as home cooked.

Similarly, I am Grandpa, and my Brisket, ribs, chicken, and pulled pork are all pretty darn good. It's only for convenience that I will eat any of it cooked somewhere else.

Have a good CFS recipe? Mine doesn't turn out as well as some places I can go sit down and eat it at locally.

Not really a recipe... I do it like my mama did (she was from Arkansas).

Take bottom or top round steak and salt and pepper. Then, pound the bejeezus out of it with a meat mallet or a ceramic saucer (edge). Sprinkle the steak with self-rising flour while you are pounding. You should be able to pound the steak down to somewhere around 1/4 to 3/8" thick. Let it rest on a plate while you pound the rest...

Dip the floured and pounded steaks into lightly salted & peppered flour (self-rising, again), then a batter of egg and buttermilk. Immediately dip again into the flour. shake loose flour off, then drop into a large (cast iron) skillet with hot oil (350-375). Turn as the steak browns, then remove to a cookie sheet with paper towels in a 275-degree oven. Repeat until all the steak is cooked. Serve with whipped potatoes, corn, or green beans, and white peppered gravy (on the side).

Only one of these I have accomplished: "You may be Texan if you do not own a winter coat"

I have my sweatshirts, but no coats.

I used to be the one flying by people doing the speed limit.
Now I get flown by.

Does that even sound right?
Flown by.

But I'd be dead if I didn't own a coat.
