  • Redeem points for exclusive swag like canvas totes, “Nice to Meat Y’all” t-shirts, brisket hats, and even a YETI tumbler. Rack up 2,000 points and you’ll score an entry into the grand prize: a beef smoking class at Smoke Lab and a weekend getaway to Austin.

All About 'Local'!

Via press release, Rachel Chou with Beef Loving Texans says the trail is about more than just food.

It’s a chance to celebrate Texas families, ranchers, and local flavor. From fajitas to brisket, burgers to CFS, it’s a delicious road trip that gives back.

So whether you’re road-tripping through the Hill Country or staying close to home, this beefy challenge is your excuse to support local restaurants, honor Texas tradition, and maybe win something cool while you’re at it.

Fire up your appetite, Lubbock. This is one trail worth traveling.
