Summary: Nobody wants to go to Mexico for Texas style BBQ! Or do they? For the first time ever in the recent prestigious Houston Rodeo BBQ competition a Mexican from Linares placed 3rd. Luis Rivas is bringing all that flavor home with his BBQ restaurant Riv's. Pati will visit the restaurant to taste the difference between carne asada and 'Texas style' bbq. Then she visits his family's large orange grove where she learns about the "Orange Belt", the nickname for this part of the country known for its orange exports. At the same time, he will have all his family and some friends over for a Carne Asada on his massive grill set up. He'll be making BBQ but also the classic norteno Cabrito. And then we're off to learn how the original Gloria's candies are made. In the kitchen recipes: Arroz Frito con Pork Belly con Miel, Arrachera y Camarones; Honey Glazed Pork Belly, Arrachera and Shrimp Fried Rice.
