The San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo is serving up a cornucopia of edible delights that are rope-in locals and visitors alike. Festival officer for the Rodeo, Derrick Adams expressed his excitement for the variety, saying, "Man, we are really excited about the food options we have for all of our guests coming out," as reported by KENS5. From classic funnel cakes to exotic Korean corn dogs, the options, topping a dazzling forty vendors, are threatening to leave no room on the festival-goers’ belts.

With the festival still in full swing until Sunday, February 25th, all who mosey on down to The Frost Bank Center can indulge in a myriad of cuisine—one of the such boasting a giant smoked beef rib, affectionately dubbed "Dino-rib," they come courtesy of Davila’s BBQ from Seguin. A rodeo attendee could be heard saying, "Yea, this is better. Well… it might come close," after being asked if the ribs bested those that could be made at home, in a statement obtained by KENS5.

Furthermore, David Elder of "Texas Eats" embarked on a gastronomic journey at the event to showcase the varied range of foods offered. Viewers can tune in on Saturdays at 10 a.m. to KSAT 12, visit KSAT.com, or download KSAT Plus, a free streaming app, to whet their appetites with the options spotlighted by Elder.

Hit among the rodeo crowd are not only the legendary funnel cakes, but visitors also relish brisket tacos and juicy turkey legs. "Funnel cakes, you have to get funnel cakes and turkey legs," one fairgoer recommended, while an Eagle Pass couple praised the brisket tacos' tenderness, and another testimonial came from a patron on their second turkey leg of the day, "The Korean Corn dog was amazing!" these accounts were noted by KENS5. In the pursuit of new favorites, Adams encourages guests, "Find a new booth and a new vendor and try something new because it made end up being your new Rodeo favorite that you can't wait until next year to get."
