Learn about Texas Cattle Trails: Texas ranchers were sending their cattle back east before the Civil War, but the great cattle trails emerged after Gulf Coast ports were blockaded by the Union. In the 1860s, the great Texas cattle drives started because Texas had an over population of longhorn cattle and the rest of the country wanted beef. With such a long distance to cover with so many cattle, the cowboys had to perfect the trail routes and the techniques to increase their success. NEW BRAUNFELS TEXAS is #25th town on the Chisholm Trail and it played an important role during the historic Texas cattle drives up to Kansas.
“Pressing north past San Antonio, longhorns on the Chisholm Trail journeyed toward New Braunfels and Austin on a route that roughly parallels I-35 today. On both the Chisholm Trail and El Camino Real de los Tejas (the Spanish Royal Road) before that, the Guadalupe River in New Braunfels served as an important water stop and river crossing for weary travelers. The best views of the crossing are upstream from the Faust Street Bridge, built in 1887. When drovers began trailing cattle through New Braunfels in the 1860s, the German artisans provided just about anything they would need from reliable wagons to sturdy saddles. The Sophienburg Museum displays the storefronts and blacksmith tools of the cattle trail era.”

About the Recipe: Angel biscuits is a recipe at the Historic Kuebler Waldrip Haus Bed and Breakfast in New Braunfels Texas.
