10 San Antonio favorites to bust the belt on Fat Tuesday

These bad boys come in various, piled-high varieties and can serve up to 8 people...although we won't judge if you finish off half yourself today ;)

Add some pickles and chamoy to the signature Mangonada, and voilà...Mangodilly deliciousness.

Big Lou's is known for its massive, mouthwatering pizza concoctions. Pie sizes range between 10" and 42", but can be made larger in specialty orders.

If the kid's face doesn't say it all, this is the 3-lb. cinnamon roll from Lulu's Bakery downtown...and yes, it's massive.

The chicken fried steak at Tip Top Cafe has been voted best in S.A., and is consistently raved about in online review posts.

Operating since 1978, and with more than 15,000,000 puffy tacos sold, the proof is in the pudding...err taco...at this San Antonio hotspot.

Brisket, Pork Butt, Chopped Beef, Pork Ribs, Baby Back Ribs, Sausage, Chicken Thighs, Pork Loin, and six sides...but you should see the big combo ;)

A sweet cream with Mexican vanilla; this hybrid treat is sure to satisfy even the most diligent sweet-tooth.

If you like your cheese with a side of burger then Chris Madrid's is the place for you!

HEAVEN can be found in a pile of brisket nachos at the The Pigpen on Pershing. They don't open until 3 on weekdays, but it is well worth the wait.
