What's shown in the video isn't what any Texan world call barbeque. Here, that word refers to slow-cooked, smoked meat (specifically beef in Texas). I'd say smoked brisket is one of our most iconic dishes.
@@Choppylovechoppy Texas has a sort of dual food culture. There is the Anglo/German side, with a mixture of Southern Comfort foods like chicken-fried steak and BBQ like beef brisket, and then there is Tex-Mex, a fusion of Mexican and American food culture. One of the iconic Tex-Mex foods here is the fajita (grilled skirt steak or chicken strips with grilled onions and peppers, served wrapped in a flour tortilla). When you come to Texas, unless you plan on spending your time at the beach, I'd recommend that you try and visit during the spring or fall (autumn) months, when the temperatures tend to be more reasonable. Hurricanes and Typhoons are actually the same thing. The name just changes depending on what part of the world they occur in. The stats he gave in the video about tornadoes is actually a bit misleading. Texas only has so many more tornadoes because the place is so huge that more of them fall within it's borders. Kansas and Oklahoma actually have more tornadoes per mile, given that they are so much smaller, yet have almost as many as Texas. The canyon that you liked in the video is in Big Bend National Park, with the river being the Rio Grande river (pronounced here as Rio Grand), which forms the border between Texas and Mexico.
@@Choppylovechoppy I lean more toward pork butt (shoulder) than beef brisket but the principle is the same. You take tough meat seasoned well and cooked roughly 95C for roughly 1hr per pound (.045kg) so it becomes tender. Typically it's 2 8 pound briskets/pork butts for 4 hours unwrapped, 4 hours double wrapped in tin foil. Here in Washington we serve it with kimchi often on a bun with a dash of mayo. I'm making it a point my son knows how to at least do pork ribs which take half the time.
My favorite "how big is Texas" story - when diesel locomotives first came out, they had technicians riding with them. They broke down in Texarkana, Being in Texas, they called El Paso. El Paso said "Call Chicago - it's closer". Texarkana, TX to El Paso, TX - 814 highway miles. Texarkana to Chicago, IL - 793 highway miles.
@@wordforger Don't forget our Texas-style cajun foods in southeast TX, crawfish, boudin, jambalaya, gumbo. Our Tex-Mex is the most popular and is amazing as well, if you are in the Austin area you need to try the taco trucks. Further south you have more Mexican like TexMex. Our barbeque is good everywhere but we have different styles based on the location in our great state.
I'm from south Texas. We grew up eating what we call "Tex-Mex", which is a mix of Texan and Mexican food. Really great stuff! There is some confusion with what some people call a bar-b-que, and just grilling out. Grilling out is just mostly hamburgers, hot dogs, and a few other quick things. A bar-b-que is MUCH bigger! It usually means slow cooking for hours, or even all nite! Brisket (large piece of beef) is usually the favorite, and is slow-cooked until it is very tender. Now I'm very hungry!
Summertime in Texas, May to September, expect temperatures between 35°C and 45°C with varying levels of humidity depending on where you go. The state really is huge. If you plan to visit, I would recommend finding a Texan you can road trip around with. If you bounce between the big cities, you miss most of what the state has to offer. The food is amazing, I recommend visiting the State Fair of Texas at least once. The food there is worth it. In Texas, we take our BBQ serious. Grilling is not BBQ. BBQ is slow cooked meat in a smoker with marinades or dry rubs of spices. The meat is so tender that it nearly melts in your mouth. Then there's Tex-Mex. Nearly all "Mexican" food restaurants in Texas actually serve Tex-Mex. We took traditional Mexican food and added unhealthy levels of extra deliciousness.
road trip in the USA is just my biggest dream... I don't like big cities anyways so driving around in Texas must be so incredible! Can't wait to visit ;)
@@Choppylovechoppy Texas road trips are great. There's tons of great small towns between the big cities that are great to stop in. I live just south of Dallas, and some of my favorite places are one exit stops on the highways between the big cities. For a good road trip, I would plan your destinations to be in the cities, but take your time to drop into the places along the way. I'm 31, born and raised here, and can spend many more years exploring the great state of Texas.
@@Choppylovechoppy Texas is so huge that we actually have dedicated magazines and long running TV shows that give people a tour of all there is to find.
@@lunatimecast6744 The real difference is hurricanes and typhoons (they are the same thing) are created from a continent on the other side of the ocean. Heat rises up on the continent and travels west, once it reaches the ocean it slowly forms a tropical depression which is just a small storm, then as it gains energy it will start to rotate and it will by this time be way larger (by area) than a tornado every will (tornadoes will have higher speeds though), as it gains energy it will upgrade to a tropical storm and then finally a hurricane or typhoon as wind speeds increase (only difference is hurricanes start in Africa and go through the Atlantic Ocean while typhoons start in South America and travel through the Pacific). Tornadoes are much smaller storms over dry land (water spouts if over water), and they will form at the intersection of two weather fronts when the cold air pushes down against the hot air causing a vortex to form.
You definitely need to look up Palo Duro Canyon! It’s the second largest canyon in the USA, located in the Texas panhandle. And for other panhandle of Texas attractions, look up The Big Texan’s 72 oz steak challenge. 😉
Sorry that was your 1st impression of Texas. Just a bunch of random facts, and not that interesting. We were an independent country for 9 years from 1836 to 1845. Texas gets hurricanes every year, which are typhoons with another name. Our topography is wildly variant from pine forests in the east, to the coastal regions, to the tiny mountains and deserts in the west. We are historically very conceded about being Texan. ( But the population has constant influxes of people moving in from up North and California, and I cannot speak for them. ) The semiconductor was invented here in Dallas. While I do have an uncle with a cattle ranch in the panhandle , most of us live in cities just as in Japan, but smaller. ( 3 to 4 million people ) We have tons of fast food restaurants, but most nice places to eat will be Tex-Mex (with Margaritas ), steak houses. Italian, or seafood. The biggest omission was not stating, that Texas is home to the Dallas Cowboys !!! Watch what kind of comments that generates.
"semiconductor was invented here in Dallas" Yep. It's not called Texas Instruments (TI)without a reason. Among their claims to fame is synthetic speech... in the 1970s. As you might expect with Instruments and Texas in the name they started out creating gear to find oil.
Yes, I always get blown away how big Texas is, I’m from San Antonio. But we cover two time zones, Central CST and Mountain MST, it can take over 10 hours to drive from Houston to El Paso, TX. We have some really great Tex-Mex food, San Antonio, is known for the battle of the Alamo in 1836 for Texas Independence from Mexico. They didn’t mention any of these facts. We also have three of the largest populated cities in the USA 🇺🇸 Houston (#4), San Antonio (#7), Dallas (#9).
During World War 2, the most decorated unit during the war was a unit made up of mostly Japanese Americans. They were very brave and fought only on the European theater. They helped rescue a unit from Texas that wore almost destroyed by the Germans. Years later a WW2 vet became governor of Texas and made all the members of the Japanese unit, honorary texans. The unit was the 442 infantry regiment, mostly made up of second generation Japanese Americans. Look them up it would be cool to react to a video about them.
It's definitely the food. I know someone who spent time on a Japanese Navy ship for work, and he lost so much weight in just a couple months. He couldn't wait to get back to America and eat something that wasn't fish.
@@Choppylovechoppy We certainly tend to be major beef eaters here. The most popular fish here (as well as in most of the American South) is fried catfish, though seafood is also certainly more popular on the coast.
Football schedule is Tuesday is Peewee, Wednesday is Middle school, Thursday is Junior Varsity, Friday is Varsity, Saturday is College, Sunday is NFL, then Monday is Monday night NFL.
i recommend watching this video on the PROS of living in Texas. You don't have to make a video on it, but the narrorator talks about some fun things. It doesn't really show the cons, but there are not many anyway. ruclips.net/video/jOysbKhrHwU/видео.html
@@Choppylovechoppy I'd recommend doing that one, then their videos on the Texas Revolution and the American Civil War, in that chronological order. These videos should certainly help you in learning about our history more than some of the others that you've tried in the past. As a bonus, they're hilarious!
@@randlebrowne2048 Don’t even get me started on The Freeze this year. At one point, it was 3 degrees Fahrenheit where I lived, but went back up into the 70s two or three days later.
They also spin in opposite directions, but other than that they are exactly the same. You could just call each cyclones. Maybe the Atlantic forms stronger ones? Or it’s possible most typhoons in the pacific don’t make landfall compared to the Atlantic. I never heard that hurricanes are stronger than typhoons but who knows
@@rebeccaboyer9924 Typhoons actually tend to get stronger than hurricanes, since the Pacific gives them so much more room to grow before hitting land (where they tend to weaken).
@rebeccaboyer9924 they don't necessarily spin in opposite directions. Japan and America spin the same. Australia opposite. It depends on which latitudinal hemisphere you're in.
As a native Texan from Fort Worth, the Tex -mex cuisine is better than the bbq! However, DFW is super diverse! We eat all kinds of food, Vietnamese, Thai, Hawaiian , Mediterranean... lots of stuff to choose from if you go some place like DfW or Houston. The people are super nice, I notice a difference when I drive out of state. We have some amazing art museums and culture, and Fredericksburg is like Texas’s own wine country! The heat can be unbearable in late July - September, so when you visit, try another time since you don’t like the heat! I hope you get to visit one day! 🤠
When they moved the Helium Monument I worked building the new location with my brother who was in charge of the construction. They helicoptered the monument from the old location, and was really cool getting it set in the exact location needed.
Now i kind of want to see videos of you reacting to every state in America haha. The video from a few months ago had some interesting facts but didn't really show the beauty of each state, in my opinion. I also love theme parks! 6 Flags i believe is in quite a few states. However, my favorite is in my home state of Indiana called Holiday World. Each ride is themed around a specific holiday! It's family owned so it's the only one but the ticket price isn't bad AND there's a waterpark that is free (most places the waterpark is an additional price) and free parking and free sunscreen. It doesn't have a lot of roller coasters, but the waterpark is worth it. (I love this park i'm sorry lol.)
@@Choppylovechoppy It is! I used to go every year but we all got older and jobs and life stopped it, but i want to go back. There's nothing in that town, but it's about 7-10 minutes away from Abraham Lincoln's childhood home! If American Presidential History is of any interest to anyone lol. And close to a BEAUTIFUL Monastery. And now i'm ranting lol
Tex-mex and BBQ is where it's at here. Fajitas, slow smoked brisket and pork. Some of the best BBQ in the state comes from smaller local businesses, not chain stores. Look for smoke or at the very least smokers; you should be able to smell the BBQ from outside the building. Ps: reall BBQ is expensive. Around $19 per lb of beef and $16 for pork. If you want bbq-esque tex-mexish food on a budget and you like chicken i'd recommend Cowboy Chicken. There are a couple dozen throughout the state and they have reasonable prices.
I’ve seen that you have an interest in Alaska. I would also recommend journeying to Colorado. It is also a state famous for its outdoors and beautiful mountain towns that are great to visit any time of the year.
Woo-hoo native Texan here! Thanks for the vid. I've been sent to spread the message, God blessed Texas! Lol just listen to the song when you get a chance.
Different parts of Texas can be drastically different from each other. I'm a Hispanic from San Antonio and things here are pretty different from somewhere up North. I prefer the Southern part of Texas as opposed to the more "country" parts of the North and rural Texas. Also, you have to try the fast food chain, Whataburger.
A lady came to our grocery store here in Tennessee. She was from Texas. She was used to Texas people being so kind that she thought everyone in Tennessee was hateful, which is so far from the truth. Tennessee people are very friendly, but compared to Texans, maybe not?
I moved from rural north Louisiana to rural south Texas 14 years ago. I tell Texans who haven't been to other states that they have no idea how nice they are by comparison.
Texas is so big that we measure distance by drive time. "Where's Wal-Mart" "About 5 minutes south of here." "Lubbock's to the east right?" "No, it's about 6 hours west of Dallas."
I remember hearing once that El Paso is actually closer to San Diego than Houston by about 20 miles. Knowing how big Texas is, I completely believe it.
I recommend videos by native Texans on any subject. Get to see the very diverse state of Texas. Btw…35 degrees to my US person is cold, near freezing. We have no clue about Celsius. Here in New Jersey this week we’ve had temperatures near 100 degrees (F)
In 8th grade our class toured the Texas capitol and the architects were obviously obsessed with Texas. The hinges have Texas engraved on them and the light bulbs on the chandeliers in the House of Representatives Chamber spell Texas!
85 miles an hour is the same as 136.79 km/h Food chicken fried beef steak Texas is the only place on earth with helium. The monument is very near Cadillac ranch but on the north side of I40. You come see us, you won't be disappointed.
Don't forget houston has Space Center Houston, which is basically a museum about all the space missions including the apollo, mercury, and many more american space missions. also the fact that texas was where the control center for the Space shuttle missions was.
I lived around Tokoyo for 10 years and Texas is my home. Hopefully, I can help. In July or August we reach 100° F or 38° C. Homes in America have air conditioning & heat in the whole home, not just each room. The Galveston Hurricane was before weather was able to be monitored. Many people died because nobody knew it was coming Typhoon, Hurricane, and Cyclone are all the same just depends on location on where in the world it starts. 85 mph is 138 kph. American football is like Rugby. American food contains lots of sugar compared to Japanese. I would have to make 2 dishes if we had Japanese friends over to our house because they could not handle how sweet the food tasted.
That's a 137 kph speed limit around Austin capital. And 40 is pretty hot, and Texas spends a lot of the summer around there. We often get up to 42-44 as well, though, at least for a few days.
Someone FROM Texas needs to create a video about Texas. Most of the ones about our state are lame. Having lived in Japan when I was in kindergarten, my mom was taught some Japanese recipes by our Mama-san. We frequently make gyoza, yakisoba or yakatori for dinner. I, personally, avoid the yakisoba like the plague since I detest cabbage, especially cooked cabbage, except in egg rolls where it's chopped very fine and not cooked to death.
I haven’t watched Timothy’s reaction yet, but I’m Native Texan. I’m either going to be pleased, horrified or Hell on the Red pissed😂 Edit: Hell on the Red it is!🤬 Who made that absolutely insulting video that poor Tim had to sit through? For that jerk’s information, Texas has 29 million people, not 18 million, so I guess he misplaced 11 million people. Also, is he trying to call our people fat??? Uh, he clearly has never had a hot, sizzling plate of fajitas with rice and beans and a cold frozen margarita in his life, so sucks to be him! We sure do enjoy our food, but we also work our butts off in the hot sun tending ranches and farms that feed him and his, so what’s he gonna eat if our daddies and Papaws stopped plowing fields??? Tree bark?? He mentioned nothing about our history or culture except to make fun of Tex Avery and Six Flags. Whoever that dude is…I hope Governor Ann Richards haunts him forever.
so I live in North East Texas and a few years ago I believe we had like 200 day stint where the temp was above 100 degrees fahrenheit (37.8 celsius) with over like 80% humidity. It's not just the heat it's the humidity that'll get you. I've met alot of people from other places that say their home state can get the same temperature but they get here and then die because the humidity lol
You can fit everyone in the whole world standing next to each other all within the borders of Houston. Texas also had an embassy in England during its independence as a country. The battle cry of "Remember the Alamo!" During the battle of san Jacinto Is extraordinarily famous and is still used today and not just by Texans and americans.. I could go on for days about the history and culture of san antonio but that would be way too long. But another interesting fact is that The Menger bar near the Alamo is actually where Roosevelt recruited his rough riders.
As an American I love TX.. But if I was tourist or someone from Japan or other countries coming for a visit I wouldn't start with TX.. because of it's size! I'd stick with New England.. Boston first.. because it's easier to get around and you can do a walking tour that you see the major buildings and history of the start of our nation and the revolution. Then I'd take a plane to one of the major FL cities.. I'd recommend a coastal city.. but a tour of the center protected waterways is unique. 3rd I'd head West toward New Orleans.. and stay a night or 2 burbon street area and definitely eat a Binnet (SP?) Donut. Then get on a plane and head towards Phoenix.. stay one night and rent a car to Williams ( 3 hour drive up windy 17 freeway) to stay at hotel and take train to Grand canyon and stay at the main hotel there.. be sure to see sunset and sunrise.. head back down on train and car and take another plane to Oregon coast.. take the coastal train down to San Diego.. catch Balboa Park via a rental car.. the San Diego Pier area.. ( a night or 2.. maybe take a boat cruise in the bay) then head back home via international flight. As I said.. TX is great! I'd recommend "Salt Lick" BBQ an hour outside of the capital AUSTIN.. or a trip to San Antonio.. but because it's such a large state you would be in the car a LOT!
Texas has a diverse population. I libe in the DFW area and there is a large Asian community. My son took Japanese language class in high school. There are Korean and Indian shopping centers. I have been to several Japanese festivals. Texas is not just Hispanic, African American and white populations.
Timothy, Native Texan here. There is just too much Texas to fit into a single video or comment. But let me attempt to give you some perspective in numbers you will understand. Going East to West it is 1308.397 Kilometers from Texarkana to El Paso. That is almost 11 hours of straight driving at 120 kph. Going South to North, Brownsville to Texline is 1445.191 Kilometers. That is a little over 12 hours a straight driving at 120 kph. The Dallas - Ft Worth Metro area covers 24,100 Square Kilometers. We have wide open plains in the North, dense pine forests in the East, the gulf coast in the south, mountainous regions in the west, prairie land somewhere in the middle. We have cultures from all over the world here. German influence was heavy in the founding days of Texas and you can find that in the myriad of Beers we have here as well as the food. We can have all types of weather (sometimes all in the same day). It can be below freezing in Amarillo and in the 80's down in Brownsville, while raining in Dallas and cool and dry out in El Paso. We have high tech jobs in the big cities and we still have plenty of laid back small towns out in the country. We have natural and man made wonders. Friendly people and then we also have Buccee's. A quick you tube search will tell you all you need to know about Buccee's. Just remember "Everything is Bigger in Texas"
Famous food huney, Breakfast: Steak and eggs, sausage gravy and biscuits, black coffee orange juice or milk. Lunch: ant one thats Famous Dinner: Thick stake ,ribz, bacon and green beans, mash tatters, grilled and butter corn on the cob. For at home staples: coffee, eggs, bacon, and butter.
Most popular food type in Texas is Tex Mex and the closer you are to Mexico the better the food is unless you’re in one of the big cities,like Austin, DallasFort Worth, San Antonio, or Houston.
Floridian here, not from Texas: Hurricanes is just the phrase used to describe cyclonic storms in the Western Hemisphere. They are basically the same thing as Typhoons
This is the first time I've seen your video and i see you posted it two 2 years ago. Well, today, San Antonio is the fastest growing city in the country, which i learned yesterday. I suggest you check out a video on San Antonio
“35 degrees is so hot” *Laughs in Arizona’s 51.7 degree peaks with an average of 32.2 lows and 48.9 degree highs. Plus, there’s no moisture here, so it’s like standing in an oven. Texas is like that in a lot of areas too, especially out west.
As an Okie often I get annoyed at how much Oklahoma is just about ignored in terms of its food. I really think it's because we get lumped in with Texas and to be fair the style of cuisine between us is very similar. Still not fair though.
Also on the obesity thing, you also have to factor in that Texas is huge and very very hot, we like being in our air conditioned trucks and cars. The nearest town from mine is 45 minutes away not counting the traffic. Imagine walking that in 100 plus degree heat. This week its supposed to be in the 90's for us and were in the month of November. So yeah the good food is one reason but there's also the lack of walking and outside activity due to the heat too.
Well Texas has 5 regions. The east is full of pine trees and has great BBQ. The east is part of the great plains, a few oil fields and lots of cows. South Texas is where a lot of Mexican-Americans live. We call'em "Tehanos" (the h is a j) and they make the best food. The middle of the state is where a lot of German immigrants settled. They make good beer and invented a thing called chicken fried steak. No chicken, but it's breaded the same and covered in gravy. The coast is honestly the worst beaches on the gulf, but they're there, and the Panhandle is what Dallasites drive through to go to Colorado. As far as cities go. Dallas has more restaurants per capita than NYC, but people only live there because of their jobs. Houston is the biggest city and is stuck in-between Galveston and the oil refineries. So it's a money soaked town with no soul. Austin is the capital, and used to have a music scene good enough that you could ignore all the hippies.. But then the richer whinier hippies from California moved in and destroyed it. San Antonio is a fun little tourist trap. El Paso is just across the border from 2015's murder capital of the world and it hasn't gotten much better. My point is please stop moving to Texas. The California mass exodus hit us hard, but they're coming in from all over. Texas doesn't have a state income tax and our property taxes are low. A growing economy is good, but now our housing prices have tripled because all these dumb alternative-Americans are just taking the initial offers. Native Texans are all moving out to the country, and all the workers at our fast food restaurants still don't speak English. And that's what Texas is now.
fyi WRT tornado vs hurricane: both are violent wind phenomena. tornados tend be relatively localized and descend from upper atmosphere conditions mostly over land masses. hurricanes tend to be much larger storm systems (often easily visible to spacecraft) and mostly form over water, then do their greatest damage when they drift inland. since beach areas are often densely populated, hurricanes often do quite a lot of damage. not that tornados do not, but their extent tends to be smaller. If your home is struck by one, I doubt it would matter which kind of storm it was. both can totally destroy a home and other property and kill humans and animals in the process if not the subsequent flood surges.
Galveston was one of our most prosperous and modern cities at the time, with all the modern amenities you'd expect in a port city in 1900. They never really regained their prominence after the hurricane practically wiped the city off the map. Houston is now our major port. Galveston built the dike and raised the city several feet after the 1900 hurricane, but they still get regularly flooded during normal rains and hit by bad storm surges during hurricanes. Still a nice vacation spot, though.
"Sounds like Texans" 🤣👏👏👏 Born and raised Texan. But I guess I'm not as texas-patriotic as many are. I watched the 10 worst states react video and went "how the hell did Texas not even make this list?"
There are many things that I would consider more interesting then the speed limit or dish. For example we are home to America Team, the Dallas Cowboys. I remember watching the Cowboys play a preseason game back in 1992 at the Tokyo Dome. They lost the preseason game but won the Super Bowl that year! To tie in with the video the NFL’s most iconic team is located footsteps away from Six Flags, the two attractions are roughly two miles apart. Texas is also the home of Dr Pepper! This infamous drink was created in Waco, Texas and was introduced commercially in 1885, prior to Coca-Cola (1886). I remember the joy I felt a few years back when I found a vending machine on Enoshima Island which contained Dr Pepper. Your not a true Texan unless you love Dr Pepper! As for food The official dish of Texas is neither barbecue nor Tex-Mex…it’s Chili! So when your in Texas, particularly in the winter, try a bowl of Chili…better yet make it a Frito Pie!
Yeah. Texas has strange whether. Summers are hot, but winters get pretty cold. And despite living in Texas my entire life, I've never actually seen a tornado. had plenty of tornado warnings but no dice. Most of them are out in the pan handle I believe.

There is some confusion with what some people call a bar-b-que, and just grilling out. Grilling out is just mostly hamburgers, hot dogs, and a few other quick things. A bar-b-que is MUCH bigger! It usually means slow cooking for hours, or even all nite! Brisket (large piece of beef) is usually the favorite, and is slow-cooked until it is very tender. Now I'm very hungry!
Yessir
Summertime in Texas, May to September, expect temperatures between 35°C and 45°C with varying levels of humidity depending on where you go.
The state really is huge. If you plan to visit, I would recommend finding a Texan you can road trip around with. If you bounce between the big cities, you miss most of what the state has to offer.
The food is amazing, I recommend visiting the State Fair of Texas at least once. The food there is worth it. In Texas, we take our BBQ serious. Grilling is not BBQ. BBQ is slow cooked meat in a smoker with marinades or dry rubs of spices. The meat is so tender that it nearly melts in your mouth. Then there's Tex-Mex. Nearly all "Mexican" food restaurants in Texas actually serve Tex-Mex. We took traditional Mexican food and added unhealthy levels of extra deliciousness.

Hurricanes and typhoons occur near oceans, tornados hit the land areas.
The real difference is that hurricanes come off the ocean building speed on the warm ocean waters... while tornados form on land
@@lunatimecast6744 The real difference is hurricanes and typhoons (they are the same thing) are created from a continent on the other side of the ocean. Heat rises up on the continent and travels west, once it reaches the ocean it slowly forms a tropical depression which is just a small storm, then as it gains energy it will start to rotate and it will by this time be way larger (by area) than a tornado every will (tornadoes will have higher speeds though), as it gains energy it will upgrade to a tropical storm and then finally a hurricane or typhoon as wind speeds increase (only difference is hurricanes start in Africa and go through the Atlantic Ocean while typhoons start in South America and travel through the Pacific). Tornadoes are much smaller storms over dry land (water spouts if over water), and they will form at the intersection of two weather fronts when the cold air pushes down against the hot air causing a vortex to form.
Now you have to do a video called "Japanese Reacts to Bugs Bunny." LOL
You definitely need to look up Palo Duro Canyon! It’s the second largest canyon in the USA, located in the Texas panhandle. And for other panhandle of Texas attractions, look up The Big Texan’s 72 oz steak challenge. 😉
I've been there and it was fantastic!
A great many of the old Western movies and TV shows were actually filmed in the Palo Duro Canyon.
Remember it can get very hot, or very cold, and very windy in the Texas Panhandle.
Sorry that was your 1st impression of Texas. Just a bunch of random facts, and not that interesting. We were an independent country for 9 years from 1836 to 1845. Texas gets hurricanes every year, which are typhoons with another name. Our topography is wildly variant from pine forests in the east, to the coastal regions, to the tiny mountains and deserts in the west. We are historically very conceded about being Texan. ( But the population has constant influxes of people moving in from up North and California, and I cannot speak for them. ) The semiconductor was invented here in Dallas. While I do have an uncle with a cattle ranch in the panhandle , most of us live in cities just as in Japan, but smaller. ( 3 to 4 million people ) We have tons of fast food restaurants, but most nice places to eat will be Tex-Mex (with Margaritas ), steak houses. Italian, or seafood.
The biggest omission was not stating, that Texas is home to the Dallas Cowboys !!!
Watch what kind of comments that generates.
Super interesting ! Cannot wait to visit 🥺
@@Choppylovechoppy the Alamo is the best. Check out the slab there gifted by Japan 😍😍
"semiconductor was invented here in Dallas"
Yep. It's not called Texas Instruments (TI)without a reason. Among their claims to fame is synthetic speech... in the 1970s. As you might expect with Instruments and Texas in the name they started out creating gear to find oil.
I wish they talked more about the Republic of Texas, when Texas was its own country.
Yes, I always get blown away how big Texas is, I’m from San Antonio. But we cover two time zones, Central CST and Mountain MST, it can take over 10 hours to drive from Houston to El Paso, TX.
We have some really great Tex-Mex food, San Antonio, is known for the battle of the Alamo in 1836 for Texas Independence from Mexico. They didn’t mention any of these facts. We also have three of the largest populated cities in the USA 🇺🇸
Houston (#4), San Antonio (#7), Dallas (#9).
During World War 2, the most decorated unit during the war was a unit made up of mostly Japanese Americans. They were very brave and fought only on the European theater. They helped rescue a unit from Texas that wore almost destroyed by the Germans. Years later a WW2 vet became governor of Texas and made all the members of the Japanese unit, honorary texans. The unit was the 442 infantry regiment, mostly made up of second generation Japanese Americans. Look them up it would be cool to react to a video about them.
It's definitely the food. I know someone who spent time on a Japanese Navy ship for work, and he lost so much weight in just a couple months. He couldn't wait to get back to America and eat something that wasn't fish.
Haha we love our fish and rice 🍣
@@Choppylovechoppy We certainly tend to be major beef eaters here. The most popular fish here (as well as in most of the American South) is fried catfish, though seafood is also certainly more popular on the coast.
Once back in the states I would want brisket, bacon and some whiskey. I would be a animal for the first few days.
Also catfish. Only fish I like other the halibut.

As a Texan, I didn't even know half of these facts LOL but great video
i recommend watching this video on the PROS of living in Texas. You don't have to make a video on it, but the narrorator talks about some fun things. It doesn't really show the cons, but there are not many anyway.

I'll check it out ! Thanks 😆
Reacting to the American revolution by oversimplified would be very interesting 💜
Yes couldn’t recommend it enough lol
Okkaay I definitely need to check that out ;)
@@Choppylovechoppy I'd recommend doing that one, then their videos on the Texas Revolution and the American Civil War, in that chronological order. These videos should certainly help you in learning about our history more than some of the others that you've tried in the past. As a bonus, they're hilarious!
Texan here. The weather can change every 5 minutes, we eat pickles at movies, everything is BIG!
Well I'm used to that i used to live in England ( the weather )
@@Choppylovechoppy Do they occasionally have dust storms, rain, hail, snow *and* a heatwave within 48 hours?
@@randlebrowne2048 Don’t even get me started on The Freeze this year. At one point, it was 3 degrees Fahrenheit where I lived, but went back up into the 70s two or three days later.
@@randlebrowne2048 It can happen.
@@MikeV8652 In England? I've seen it happen here in Texas.
Hurricane and typhoon are the same. If it comes out of the Pacific ocean it's a typhoon if it comes from the Atlantic it's a hurricane.
They also spin in opposite directions, but other than that they are exactly the same. You could just call each cyclones.
Maybe the Atlantic forms stronger ones? Or it’s possible most typhoons in the pacific don’t make landfall compared to the Atlantic. I never heard that hurricanes are stronger than typhoons but who knows
Came to comment this! Lol.
Didn't know that ! Arigato !
@@rebeccaboyer9924 Typhoons actually tend to get stronger than hurricanes, since the Pacific gives them so much more room to grow before hitting land (where they tend to weaken).
@rebeccaboyer9924 they don't necessarily spin in opposite directions. Japan and America spin the same. Australia opposite. It depends on which latitudinal hemisphere you're in.
As a native Texan from Fort Worth, the Tex -mex cuisine is better than the bbq! However, DFW is super diverse! We eat all kinds of food, Vietnamese, Thai, Hawaiian , Mediterranean... lots of stuff to choose from if you go some place like DfW or Houston. The people are super nice, I notice a difference when I drive out of state. We have some amazing art museums and culture, and Fredericksburg is like Texas’s own wine country! The heat can be unbearable in late July - September, so when you visit, try another time since you don’t like the heat! I hope you get to visit one day! 🤠
Howdy from the great nation of Texas 🤠🚀⭐
Born in Dallas and never knew about the "what's up doc?" fact. :)
When they moved the Helium Monument I worked building the new location with my brother who was in charge of the construction. They helicoptered the monument from the old location, and was really cool getting it set in the exact location needed.
Now i kind of want to see videos of you reacting to every state in America haha. The video from a few months ago had some interesting facts but didn't really show the beauty of each state, in my opinion.
I also love theme parks! 6 Flags i believe is in quite a few states. However, my favorite is in my home state of Indiana called Holiday World. Each ride is themed around a specific holiday! It's family owned so it's the only one but the ticket price isn't bad AND there's a waterpark that is free (most places the waterpark is an additional price) and free parking and free sunscreen. It doesn't have a lot of roller coasters, but the waterpark is worth it. (I love this park i'm sorry lol.)
wow just looked it up and looks so fun... 🥺
@@Choppylovechoppy It is! I used to go every year but we all got older and jobs and life stopped it, but i want to go back. There's nothing in that town, but it's about 7-10 minutes away from Abraham Lincoln's childhood home! If American Presidential History is of any interest to anyone lol. And close to a BEAUTIFUL Monastery.
And now i'm ranting lol
When they start talking about "feet", just divide by three and you'll have a pretty good measurement in meters.
This was a terrible video on us lol
HAHA
Tex-mex and BBQ is where it's at here. Fajitas, slow smoked brisket and pork. Some of the best BBQ in the state comes from smaller local businesses, not chain stores. Look for smoke or at the very least smokers; you should be able to smell the BBQ from outside the building.
Ps: reall BBQ is expensive. Around $19 per lb of beef and $16 for pork.
If you want bbq-esque tex-mexish food on a budget and you like chicken i'd recommend Cowboy Chicken. There are a couple dozen throughout the state and they have reasonable prices.
I’ve seen that you have an interest in Alaska. I would also recommend journeying to Colorado. It is also a state famous for its outdoors and beautiful mountain towns that are great to visit any time of the year.
A lot of people from Texas consider it, it's own country
85 mph = 137 kmph!
And this is so lame about Texas. A lot more interesting information out there.
Woo-hoo native Texan here! Thanks for the vid. I've been sent to spread the message, God blessed Texas!
Lol just listen to the song when you get a chance.
Bless your sneeze sir
little fun fact, theres an intersection in Texas that only has stop signs because my family sued the state for signs and won
Different parts of Texas can be drastically different from each other. I'm a Hispanic from San Antonio and things here are pretty different from somewhere up North. I prefer the Southern part of Texas as opposed to the more "country" parts of the North and rural Texas. Also, you have to try the fast food chain, Whataburger.
A lady came to our grocery store here in Tennessee. She was from Texas. She was used to Texas people being so kind that she thought everyone in Tennessee was hateful, which is so far from the truth. Tennessee people are very friendly, but compared to Texans, maybe not?
I moved from rural north Louisiana to rural south Texas 14 years ago. I tell Texans who haven't been to other states that they have no idea how nice they are by comparison.
The stars are bright in the sky at night….
what is this that people are saying !?

Search it on RUclips. You’ll hear it. It’s tradition.
If you are going to Texas you have to go to a buc-ees! They are about the size of a small Japanese village
85 mph is about 135 kmh. Multiply miles by 1.6 to get kilometers; multiply kilometers by .6 to get miles.
The thing is because of my brain can't even do that calculation 😂
That's too much trouble! Let's just stick with miles here.
Texas is so big that we measure distance by drive time.
"Where's Wal-Mart"
"About 5 minutes south of here."
"Lubbock's to the east right?"
"No, it's about 6 hours west of Dallas."
I remember hearing once that El Paso is actually closer to San Diego than Houston by about 20 miles. Knowing how big Texas is, I completely believe it.
@@tomvolz3760 Texas is honestly so big you can drive for 10 hours in one direction and still be in Texas.
I’m from Decatur I remember that I was on the drill team and we all dressed up at the game
I'll find a better video next 😭
Six Flags over Texas in Arlignton is the best one. It has the Texas Giant and the Titan 😱😱
I recommend videos by native Texans on any subject. Get to see the very diverse state of Texas. Btw…35 degrees to my US person is cold, near freezing. We have no clue about Celsius. Here in New Jersey this week we’ve had temperatures near 100 degrees (F)
I'll find a better video next video 😅
@@Choppylovechoppy I keep meaning to ask- is James your surname? My grandfather’s family were James who originated in Wales and Cornwall.
In 8th grade our class toured the Texas capitol and the architects were obviously obsessed with Texas. The hinges have Texas engraved on them and the light bulbs on the chandeliers in the House of Representatives Chamber spell Texas!
85 miles an hour is the same as 136.79 km/h
Food chicken fried beef steak
Texas is the only place on earth with helium. The monument is very near Cadillac ranch but on the north side of I40.
You come see us, you won't be disappointed.
Don't forget houston has Space Center Houston, which is basically a museum about all the space missions including the apollo, mercury, and many more american space missions. also the fact that texas was where the control center for the Space shuttle missions was.
I lived around Tokoyo for 10 years and Texas is my home. Hopefully, I can help. In July or August we reach 100° F or 38° C. Homes in America have air conditioning & heat in the whole home, not just each room. The Galveston Hurricane was before weather was able to be monitored. Many people died because nobody knew it was coming Typhoon, Hurricane, and Cyclone are all the same just depends on location on where in the world it starts. 85 mph is 138 kph. American football is like Rugby. American food contains lots of sugar compared to Japanese. I would have to make 2 dishes if we had Japanese friends over to our house because they could not handle how sweet the food tasted.
YESS MY BEAUTIFUL STATE!!
That's a 137 kph speed limit around Austin capital. And 40 is pretty hot, and Texas spends a lot of the summer around there. We often get up to 42-44 as well, though, at least for a few days.
If you want a good Texan food that you could get, get some pecan sandies
Someone FROM Texas needs to create a video about Texas. Most of the ones about our state are lame.
Having lived in Japan when I was in kindergarten, my mom was taught some Japanese recipes by our Mama-san. We frequently make gyoza, yakisoba or yakatori for dinner. I, personally, avoid the yakisoba like the plague since I detest cabbage, especially cooked cabbage, except in egg rolls where it's chopped very fine and not cooked to death.
The stars are big and bright here.
35-40 is how hot it gets in Texas indeed. It's very dry about it, too.
oooops
I haven’t watched Timothy’s reaction yet, but I’m Native Texan. I’m either going to be pleased, horrified or Hell on the Red pissed😂
Edit: Hell on the Red it is!🤬
Who made that absolutely insulting video that poor Tim had to sit through? For that jerk’s information, Texas has 29 million people, not 18 million, so I guess he misplaced 11 million people. Also, is he trying to call our people fat??? Uh, he clearly has never had a hot, sizzling plate of fajitas with rice and beans and a cold frozen margarita in his life, so sucks to be him! We sure do enjoy our food, but we also work our butts off in the hot sun tending ranches and farms that feed him and his, so what’s he gonna eat if our daddies and Papaws stopped plowing fields??? Tree bark?? He mentioned nothing about our history or culture except to make fun of Tex Avery and Six Flags.
Whoever that dude is…I hope Governor Ann Richards haunts him forever.
If you drive into our state it says "Drive friendly, the Texas way"
Us Texans don't play I clicked this video so quick..🤣
fr
so I live in North East Texas and a few years ago I believe we had like 200 day stint where the temp was above 100 degrees fahrenheit (37.8 celsius) with over like 80% humidity. It's not just the heat it's the humidity that'll get you. I've met alot of people from other places that say their home state can get the same temperature but they get here and then die because the humidity lol
our state motto is friendship! or "tomodachi"!
Yeah it's a pain to drive out of Texas because the speed limit just goes straight down
I'll never go through New Mexico again. Going from 80 mph to 60 mph is a pain.
You can fit everyone in the whole world standing next to each other all within the borders of Houston. Texas also had an embassy in England during its independence as a country. The battle cry of "Remember the Alamo!" During the battle of san Jacinto Is extraordinarily famous and is still used today and not just by Texans and americans.. I could go on for days about the history and culture of san antonio but that would be way too long. But another interesting fact is that The Menger bar near the Alamo is actually where Roosevelt recruited his rough riders.
As an American I love TX.. But if I was tourist or someone from Japan or other countries coming for a visit I wouldn't start with TX.. because of it's size! I'd stick with New England.. Boston first.. because it's easier to get around and you can do a walking tour that you see the major buildings and history of the start of our nation and the revolution. Then I'd take a plane to one of the major FL cities.. I'd recommend a coastal city.. but a tour of the center protected waterways is unique. 3rd I'd head West toward New Orleans.. and stay a night or 2 burbon street area and definitely eat a Binnet (SP?) Donut. Then get on a plane and head towards Phoenix.. stay one night and rent a car to Williams ( 3 hour drive up windy 17 freeway) to stay at hotel and take train to Grand canyon and stay at the main hotel there.. be sure to see sunset and sunrise.. head back down on train and car and take another plane to Oregon coast.. take the coastal train down to San Diego.. catch Balboa Park via a rental car.. the San Diego Pier area.. ( a night or 2.. maybe take a boat cruise in the bay) then head back home via international flight. As I said.. TX is great! I'd recommend "Salt Lick" BBQ an hour outside of the capital AUSTIN.. or a trip to San Antonio.. but because it's such a large state you would be in the car a LOT!
Not the best video to represent Texas, but thanks for making up for the the video that slighted us.
Texas has a diverse population. I libe in the DFW area and there is a large Asian community. My son took Japanese language class in high school. There are Korean and Indian shopping centers. I have been to several Japanese festivals. Texas is not just Hispanic, African American and white populations.
The world record for the fastest speeding ticket is in Texas. Two Swedish guys in a CCX doing like 230-240.
Timothy, Native Texan here. There is just too much Texas to fit into a single video or comment. But let me attempt to give you some perspective in numbers you will understand. Going East to West it is 1308.397 Kilometers from Texarkana to El Paso. That is almost 11 hours of straight driving at 120 kph. Going South to North, Brownsville to Texline is 1445.191 Kilometers. That is a little over 12 hours a straight driving at 120 kph. The Dallas - Ft Worth Metro area covers 24,100 Square Kilometers. We have wide open plains in the North, dense pine forests in the East, the gulf coast in the south, mountainous regions in the west, prairie land somewhere in the middle.
We have cultures from all over the world here. German influence was heavy in the founding days of Texas and you can find that in the myriad of Beers we have here as well as the food. We can have all types of weather (sometimes all in the same day). It can be below freezing in Amarillo and in the 80's down in Brownsville, while raining in Dallas and cool and dry out in El Paso.
We have high tech jobs in the big cities and we still have plenty of laid back small towns out in the country. We have natural and man made wonders. Friendly people and then we also have Buccee's. A quick you tube search will tell you all you need to know about Buccee's.
Just remember "Everything is Bigger in Texas"
Thanks man 🙏🏻
Famous food huney, Breakfast: Steak and eggs, sausage gravy and biscuits, black coffee orange juice or milk.
Lunch: ant one thats Famous
Dinner: Thick stake ,ribz, bacon and green beans, mash tatters, grilled and butter corn on the cob.
For at home staples: coffee, eggs, bacon, and butter.
Most popular food type in Texas is Tex Mex and the closer you are to Mexico the better the food is unless you’re in one of the big cities,like Austin, DallasFort Worth, San Antonio, or Houston.
Hurricanes usually spawn off a lot of tornadoes I live in Beaumont Southeast Texas on the Gulf Coast
Floridian here, not from Texas:
Hurricanes is just the phrase used to describe cyclonic storms in the Western Hemisphere. They are basically the same thing as Typhoons
This is the first time I've seen your video and i see you posted it two 2 years ago. Well, today, San Antonio is the fastest growing city in the country, which i learned yesterday. I suggest you check out a video on San Antonio
Speaking of Texas, you should do videos about NASA and SpaceX!!
“35 degrees is so hot” *Laughs in Arizona’s 51.7 degree peaks with an average of 32.2 lows and 48.9 degree highs. Plus, there’s no moisture here, so it’s like standing in an oven. Texas is like that in a lot of areas too, especially out west.
As an Okie often I get annoyed at how much Oklahoma is just about ignored in terms of its food. I really think it's because we get lumped in with Texas and to be fair the style of cuisine between us is very similar. Still not fair though.
Buddy Holly was from Lubbock, TX
Also on the obesity thing, you also have to factor in that Texas is huge and very very hot, we like being in our air conditioned trucks and cars. The nearest town from mine is 45 minutes away not counting the traffic. Imagine walking that in 100 plus degree heat. This week its supposed to be in the 90's for us and were in the month of November. So yeah the good food is one reason but there's also the lack of walking and outside activity due to the heat too.
Well Texas has 5 regions. The east is full of pine trees and has great BBQ. The east is part of the great plains, a few oil fields and lots of cows. South Texas is where a lot of Mexican-Americans live. We call'em "Tehanos" (the h is a j) and they make the best food. The middle of the state is where a lot of German immigrants settled. They make good beer and invented a thing called chicken fried steak. No chicken, but it's breaded the same and covered in gravy. The coast is honestly the worst beaches on the gulf, but they're there, and the Panhandle is what Dallasites drive through to go to Colorado. As far as cities go. Dallas has more restaurants per capita than NYC, but people only live there because of their jobs. Houston is the biggest city and is stuck in-between Galveston and the oil refineries. So it's a money soaked town with no soul. Austin is the capital, and used to have a music scene good enough that you could ignore all the hippies.. But then the richer whinier hippies from California moved in and destroyed it. San Antonio is a fun little tourist trap. El Paso is just across the border from 2015's murder capital of the world and it hasn't gotten much better. My point is please stop moving to Texas. The California mass exodus hit us hard, but they're coming in from all over. Texas doesn't have a state income tax and our property taxes are low. A growing economy is good, but now our housing prices have tripled because all these dumb alternative-Americans are just taking the initial offers. Native Texans are all moving out to the country, and all the workers at our fast food restaurants still don't speak English. And that's what Texas is now.
Um Em Paso might be across from a dangerous city but it is no where near as dangerous as Dallas or Houston so 🙄
fyi WRT tornado vs hurricane: both are violent wind phenomena. tornados tend be relatively localized and descend from upper atmosphere conditions mostly over land masses. hurricanes tend to be much larger storm systems (often easily visible to spacecraft) and mostly form over water, then do their greatest damage when they drift inland. since beach areas are often densely populated, hurricanes often do quite a lot of damage. not that tornados do not, but their extent tends to be smaller. If your home is struck by one, I doubt it would matter which kind of storm it was. both can totally destroy a home and other property and kill humans and animals in the process if not the subsequent flood surges.
The food is really good here in texas. Another thing is there is a lot of different types of food in texas.
Just because of the sneeze I'm sold new sub 👍

If you ever want a video on Louisiana, I can recommend a RUclips channel with a cool dude whose traveled to each state.
In the 1900s that was like about half the population of Texas
Galveston was one of our most prosperous and modern cities at the time, with all the modern amenities you'd expect in a port city in 1900. They never really regained their prominence after the hurricane practically wiped the city off the map. Houston is now our major port. Galveston built the dike and raised the city several feet after the 1900 hurricane, but they still get regularly flooded during normal rains and hit by bad storm surges during hurricanes. Still a nice vacation spot, though.
If you come to America I hope you have a way for your followers to possibly do a meet up if you visit our states! That would be so cool!

A hurricane is a typhoon same thing just called one or the other depending up where it happens.
Best Texas bar-b-q is brisket. It is a cows like dankly neck meat. It has to be cooked for 18 hours over low heat
"They kinda skipped Texas and some people from Texas are kinda mad about that." Yeah, sounds like Texans.

You need to watch Bugs Bunny, he's one of the best cartoon characters ever. Voiced by the best voice actor ever: Mel Blanc
There are many things that I would consider more interesting then the speed limit or dish. For example we are home to America Team, the Dallas Cowboys. I remember watching the Cowboys play a preseason game back in 1992 at the Tokyo Dome. They lost the preseason game but won the Super Bowl that year! To tie in with the video the NFL’s most iconic team is located footsteps away from Six Flags, the two attractions are roughly two miles apart.
Texas is also the home of Dr Pepper! This infamous drink was created in Waco, Texas and was introduced commercially in 1885, prior to Coca-Cola (1886). I remember the joy I felt a few years back when I found a vending machine on Enoshima Island which contained Dr Pepper. Your not a true Texan unless you love Dr Pepper!
As for food The official dish of Texas is neither barbecue nor Tex-Mex…it’s Chili! So when your in Texas, particularly in the winter, try a bowl of Chili…better yet make it a Frito Pie!
North texas (around Dallas and north) gets the majority of the tornadoes in the state.
You should do a reaction video to “top 10 places to visit in Oregon” Oregon’s nature is breathtaking!
Thanks for the idea ! I've been hearing lots about Oregon as well ! That's where you're from ?
Yeah. Texas has strange whether. Summers are hot, but winters get pretty cold. And despite living in Texas my entire life, I've never actually seen a tornado. had plenty of tornado warnings but no dice. Most of them are out in the pan handle I believe.
