Butcher Boy Taco House o ers homemade Tex-Mex
He bought the building to turn it into something to give back to the part of town that raised him. On the menu Everything Butcher Boy Taco House serves is homemade, from the menudo and tortillas to the salsa and carne guisada. Breakfast is served all day. Barbacoa, menudo and tripas are served on weekends. Hernandez said their specialty is the “Super Taco,” a taco lled with carne guisada, beans and cheese that’s about the size of the plate on which it’s served. “Our carne guisada’s real good. It’s made like your grandma used to make it with the brown gravy,” Hernandez said.
A small blue house on the side of a New Braunfels road is a gathering place for community members in search of some good homemade Tex-Mex. Jeremie Hernandez and his family opened Butcher Boy Taco House in December 2021. Since then, the restaurant has built its own community of familiar faces. The backstory Butcher Boy Taco House began as a meat market under the same name in the 1970s. Hernandez said he remembers getting food there as a child. “It was good food back then. All we’re doing is kicking it up another notch, taking it to the next level,” Hernandez said.
