The Legacy of This Fourth-Generation Family's Indelible Impact Serves Up Unforgettable State Fair Food

Sharing a review of a last-year’s State Fair of Texas favorite written by Dave Muscari we feature Farm Pac Kitchens and their award winning Brisket and Brew Stuffed Pretzel being served once more this year. As visitors from near and far flock to Fair Park for music, midway rides, football and of course legendary fried creations and other tasty treats. Their food products have been revered staples at the State Fair of Texas and the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo for years.
As one wanders through the rows of vendors and exhibitions of a beloved Texas tradition since1886 so many surprises and delights can be found. On your trek find the way to the distinctive landmark, Hans Mueller Bavarian Garden, a popular annual gathering spot for generations. Be ready for your mouth to start to water. This featured tasty bite is created by taking low smoked brisket, blended with a bold beer cheese which then is all wrapped up in pretzel dough with sea-salt and baked - it’s delightful! This delectable creation was included in the coveted category as a Savory Finalist in the Big Texas Choice Awards.

Note that all of the featured favorites from Farm Pac Kitchens can be found at three locations; Hans Mueller Bavarian Garden located next to Little Lone Stars, the Farm Pac Booth and the Borracho Nacho Bar in the Cotton Bowl Plaza.

The company has operated since 1947, and was founded by her grandfather. “My grandfather worked hard to create this company. We’re proud of the legacy.” Sherri noted. The multiple Kusak family’s offerings through the years being a part of the State Fair of Texas have earned an award-winning reputation as iconic and enduring as Big Tex Himself.
