On a recent trip to Durango, I had what may have been one of the best, most unusual food creations every to grace the fine, square state of Colorado — and it came from Texas.
Now Texas, as most old-school Coloradans know, is a place to be scorned. But frankly, Texas has a lot of offer from a culinary standpoint, whether it’s a plate of Tex-Mex-style enchiladas, a Shiner Bock beer, a bowl of Texas Red chile or a fine steak.
But the food that the Lone Star State is probably most well-known for is its barbecue, and that’s what Durango’s Serious Texas Bar-B-Q serves up. And the menu item that makes Durangans revere this little shack is something called the Texas Taco.
