Tex Mex

Border heat, backyard fajita night.

Tex-Mex grew up on the Texas-Mexico border, where Mexican chilli, cumin and lime met Texan cattle country — built for fajitas, tacos and a pot of chilli con carne, not a delicate simmer. It's the seasoning drawer for skirt and flank steak on a screaming-hot skillet, mince for tacos, and chicken thighs sizzling with peppers and onion; most of the range sits mild-to-medium heat, so it's family fajita night, not a fireball.

Start with Meat Church's Dia de la Fajita for the citrus-and-garlic fajita hit, Hardcore Carnivore's Tex Mex Rub for an everyday shaker on beef and chicken, Fancy Hanks' Taco Rub Seasoning for mince that actually tastes like a taco truck, or Four Monkeys BBQ's Tex-Mex Rub for a competition-built version with real cumin depth.

It's a genuine mix of imported and homegrown — proper Tex-Mex blends from US brands like Meat Church, Hardcore Carnivore and Blues Hog, sitting alongside Australian-made versions from Fancy Hanks and Four Monkeys BBQ, so there's a Tex-Mex option whichever way you like to shop.

Most of the range is gluten free or gluten friendly and several carry no added MSG, and every one browns fast and holds its crust in a hot pan. Border heat, backyard fajita night.
