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.
