For Chef Justin Turner (Bernie’s Burger Bus) Texas was the culinary playground he’d been waiting for his whole career. After a decade of living in the state where cultures collide and hospitality is second nature, Turner’s vision of a Texan beef centerpiece combines a signature low-and-slow braise with a Southern riff on tabbouleh—a bejeweled side dish studded with pomegranates and local pecans and designed around easy entertaining.

Where I Go Out
Curryous Frank
$, Food Truck, American, Hot Dogs, Food, Greater Heights
"The relish, the chutney, the creamy aioli and the sweet potato crisps all play well into this amazing tubed meat concoction. This is one place you're going to want to try every combination!"
Ham and eggs roll
$$$$, Happy Hour, Sushi, Outdoor Seating, Japanese, Full Bar, Montrose
"Besides being playful, the flavors bring me back to my childhood! The combination of crispy pork belly katsu, egg yolk custard and espelette makes this a memorable dish, and one I must have on a regular basis. Order two!"
Red oil dumplings
$, Chinese, Vegetarian / Vegan, Szechuan, Sharpstown
"My son has been on a dumpling kick for the last year and a half, and every time he wants some we go here for these mildly spicy, tongue tingling, delicious dumplings. It's probably a three-way tie with the dan dan noodles and spicy pork hocks on the weekends. Delicious!"
The Outdoorsman
$$, Pizza, Food Truck, Montrose
"This is a genius concoction of Broken Arrow Ranch venison sausage, Port-soaked cherries, whole milk mozzarella and a light smear of amazing pizza sauce on an amazing crust. It's worth burning the roof of your mouth off with this 600°F slice of pizza!"
BBQ beef ribs
$$, Outdoor Seating, Bbq,
"This perfectly smoked, perfectly juicy, perfectly seasoned meat lollipop is one of the best I've ever had, and by far the best I've had in Texas. These ribs are a must!"
At My Venues
Field Trip burger
$$, Happy Hour, Outdoor Seating, Burgers, Southwest Houston
"PSA: all Bernie’s Burger Bus locations close @ 8PM tonight for mandatory holiday mischief. To make up for it, here’s a shot of this month’s Field Trip burger. Grab your Flamin’ Hot @cheetos Mac n’ Cheese buns before they’re outta here 🔥🔥🔥. Just not tonight after 8PM. Because we won’t be here... weren’t you listening?"
Homemade Chili Lime Pork Rinds served with pimento cheese & spicy guacamole
$$, Happy Hour, Outdoor Seating, Burgers, Southwest Houston
"Homemade Chili Lime Pork Rinds served with our take on pimento cheese & our house spicy guacamole 🤤🔥
#friendly"
Pumpkin pie milkshake
$$, Happy Hour, Outdoor Seating, Burgers, Southwest Houston
"When you need to satisfy your pumpkin craving and it’s 80 degrees outside, you grab a Pumpkin Pie Shake!
