Texans take meat very seriously, whether it be barbecued, fried, or stuffed into a taco. We mean business when it comes to BBQ, fajitas, and steak, quite frankly.

A recent ranking by food writers at TastingTable shows what they consider the top 20 steakhouses in the United States, and four Texas restaurants earned high spots.

To find the "best" meat, you’ll need to pay a visit to New York's Peter Luger Steakhouse (No. 1) or Tampa, FL's Bern's Steakhouse (No. 2). However, the Lone Star State is also full of top-rated chophouses.

Here are the Texas-based steakhouses that made the list.
