Tex-Mex (rumor has it the fajita was invented in Houston), soul/Southern food, BBQ (beef!), and perhaps surprisingly, Creole/Cajun/seafood due to proximity to the Gulf. With people moving in from around the world, we've got a little bit of everything now, but those are the quintessential foods found in this part of Texas.
Good post, Houstoner. You promote and make a great case for some good ones!
But? Don't forget the classic Texas "Chicken Fried Steak" (smothered in white cream gravy).

I was answering more for Houston and this region of Texas than the state overall. I don't know many people who eat CFS on a regular basis, it's more of an occasional thing if people eat it at all (I don't), and it wasn't invented here, so I wouldn't single it out as being a food particular to the Houston area. Anyway, I included it indirectly; it falls under soul/Southern.
