BEEF FAJITA TACOS!!!!!!!!!!!

APRICOT FRIED PIE.

So one of the ministers in my church has been talking about going to Fuel City with me, but has never moved off dead center. So finally, I decided it was time to load up on some Fuel City Tacos. You know Tacos has basically taken over redneck food for the soul. So I gathered up the wifey and we did the Watusi over to Fuel City. It is hard to believe that one of the best tacos in Texas is sold in a truck stop, but her we are.

It is kind of different here, you buy the tacos at the taco bar and it is cash only. You buy your drink and fried pie from the truck stop. Also at the taco bar there is also corn and the corn sells rapidly. What is strange is the corn is one line and checkout and the tacos is a separate line, 5 feet from each other and the food is made by the same people in the same place, so go figure.

So I ordered beef fajita tacos, some on corn and some on flour. I have gotten into putting the lime on the beef. The salsa doesn't add much, but go wild if you want to. Man this is a good taco, the beef fajita meat has a good flavor and it is loaded with onions and cilantro. And you know Mitcho luves onion.

The fried pie lady made us fresh pies, so we had to wait 3 or 4 minutes for them to cool down. This fried pie is large and has a great crust. Of course the apricot filling is to die for. So basically I could eat one of these every meal from now. Shhhhh don't tell my doctor.

The only problem here is there are only 8 seats at a window bar inside and the rest of the seating is outside. So mid-summer and winter are not a good time to eat here. Of course you can take the fixins home and eat there and the fried pie will still be warm when you get there.

So before it gets too cold, grab your buddies, wifey, kiddos and other passers by and get yourself over to Fuel City for some Texas best tacos and don't forget the fried pie.
