CENTRAL TEXAS SMASH BURGER
Kevin Felix | Accounting Manager | San Marcos Embassy Suites
I decided to take two of my favorite flavors, tacos and burgers, and fuse them into the ultimate combination of senses. All of the textural and flavor components take you on a trip down to Central Texas, where the flavors are strong and keep you coming back for more. I hope you enjoy!
