Nothing is more Texan than cooking Chicken Fried Venison with Mr. robertearlkeen1 on Texas Independence Day! Comment “Texas” and I’ll DM you the recipe. On this day in 1836 Texas declared Independence from Mexico. The Republic of Texas operated with its own constitution, elected presidents, currency and maintained its own military and diplomatic relations. The Republic of Texas was a sovereign country until 1845 when it was annexed by the United States on December 29, 1845. It was special to cook this Texas dish along with Robert that came from the first deer my 14-year-old daughter harvested. She harvested the deer on a pretty special ranch in Crowell, TX. God Bless Texas! #MeatChurch #TexasBBQ #TexasIndependenceDay #Texas #RepublicofTexas
