Sometimes you just have a craving that will NOT leave you alone… and baby, mine was oxtails 😮‍💨🍽️

I ran across a video on TikTok from a food truck in Humble, TX called “A Lil This A Lil That” and from that moment I already knew… yeah, I need that plate.

So what did we do?

We took that 40 minute ride… and let me tell you something — it was worth every single mile. 🚗💨

The staff? Super amazing.

The food? Listen… 10 out of 10. No notes. 👏🏾

Them oxtails were fall-off-the-bone good and seasoned like somebody’s grandma was back there making sure it was done right. If the reel didn’t make you hungry, check your pulse because whew… just LOOK at that plate. 😋

And trust me… it looks good, but you won’t believe it until you taste it.

If you’re in Houston or any surrounding areas (or just visiting the city), do yourself a favor and go check out A Lil This A Lil That in Humble, TX.

Just know… I’ll definitely be making that ride again

... Read moreIf you’re anything like me and have ever had a craving that simply won’t quit, you’ll understand the lengths we go to satisfy those food urges—especially when it comes to crave-worthy dishes like oxtails. What makes 'A Lil This A Lil That' stand out is not just the flavor but the authenticity behind it. The seasoning has a homemade touch reminiscent of traditional recipes passed down through generations, giving it that comforting, soulful taste. Moreover, oxtails can sometimes be tricky to cook properly—too tough and chewy, or under-seasoned and bland. But this spot nails it every time with fall-off-the-bone tenderness and rich, well-balanced seasoning. I’ve found that places like food trucks often offer hidden gems because they focus heavily on delivering quality without the overhead of a full restaurant. If you’re planning a trip, here’s a tip from my experience: arrive with an appetite and an open mind to explore other menu items at 'A Lil This A Lil That.' Their approach to comfort food blends a casual vibe with high-calorie satisfaction, perfect for food adventurers and locals alike. Also, the 40-minute drive from Houston isn’t just about the destination—it’s a brief escape from city life, making the meal even more rewarding. The welcoming staff adds to the overall experience, creating a friendly atmosphere that encourages you to keep coming back. For anyone visiting or living around Houston, this food truck is a must-add to your culinary bucket list. Trust me, nothing beats satisfying a persistent craving with a plate that delivers on both taste and heart.
