My journey of food trailer eateries has led me back to where I began just five short weeks ago, the SoCo trailer park. Worst Tex is located at 1603 S. Congress, just to the right of Mighty Cone (another great trailer!).
As you have now drawn on those ever-so-helpful context clues, you've figured out that these delectable dishes are actually bratwursts! At Wurst Tex, you can choose from an array of unusual, mouthwatering menu options including the Franklin, a certified angus all-beef hotdog; the Veggiano, a combination of eggplant, red peppers, fennel and garlic; or the Predator & Prey, a sausage made of tender rattlesnake and rabbit. To some, these odd combinations may sound strange or unappealing. But, as Bizarre Food's host Andrew Zimmern would say, "If it looks good, eat it!".
Helpful tip: Wurst Tex is not opened Mondays. I found this out the hard way when, during a strange venison craving, I went to try a Deerwurst. Instead, I walked up to the awful sight of closed windows and a 'Sorry We're Closed' sign. Fortunately, I've eaten here before and think it's so good that I'll have to break my own rule and write about a previous Wurst Tex experience: the Predator & Prey.
The Predator & Prey is a tasty blend of rattlesnake and rabbit meat with a little jalapeno for a kick. I customized mine and added sauteed onions and spicy mustard, which are condiment necessities in my book. While I didn't experience a strange epiphany when the unusual snake and rabbit combination hit my tongue, I definitely will order it again. The flavor is unique, but still appeases your bratwurst craving. As you bite in, the hot juice from the wurst mixes with the onions, which then blends with the mustard creating an awesome flavor pallet that will leave you craving more.
As with most trailers, social media is a big part of Wurst Tex's advertising. Like them on Facebook or follow them on twitter for up-to-date information on specials, promotions and unusual closings.

One time at SoCo trailers, my friend ate at Wurst Tex while the rest of us ate at Mighty Cone. I must say that was a delicious brat. With all the German influences in New Braunfels and other hill country towns, it is no wonder there are placed like Wurst Tex with delicious bratwurst. Add the jalapenos, and there is a nice Texas twist!
