(Roughly) Daily

John Tesar has a lot of opinions. And whether it’s a 3 a.m. expletive-filled tweet directed at a food critic or an interview dishing on his old pal Anthony Bourdain, the Dallas-based chef — who slings 420-day-aged steaks at his acclaimed restaurant Knife and is preparing to publish his first cookbook — isn’t shy about expressing them. So who better to offer a critical evaluation of the weird and (sometimes) wonderful deep-fried foods of the State Fair of Texas?

From Injectible BBQ Balls to Fried Funyon Dings, Tesar reviews ’em all at “John Tesar Eats the Most Absurd Fried Foods in Texas.”
