More Goodtaste This Weekend!
This weekend, Goodtaste heads to the heart of BBQ country to experience one of Texas Monthly’s picks for the best barbecue in the entire state! We dig into supremely tender pork belly glazed with peach tea and a brisket taco doused in spicy avocado salsa—it’s truly one of the best we’ve ever eaten! Then, Tanji travels across the state in search of authentic international eats, from Southeast Asia to Greece, and we get a taste of Parisian culture right here in Houston at a celebratory spot that’s all about Champagne. Watch the episode trailer and find your showtime HERE.
