Recipes from the ten top restaurants in Texas.

Executive editor Patricia Sharpe spent a good deal of the past year criss-crossing the state in search of the best new restaurants. After many meals and many miles, she noted a few trends (the offal went mainstream, small-plates showed up big, and local sourcing was everywhere) and carefully crafted her list of the top ten. The talented chefs at these restaurants are breaking new ground, experimenting with textures and colors, and creating amazing food. So we asked them to share a recipe. We can't guarantee that your end product will be exactly the same, but we are pretty sure that you'll have fun trying.
