It's been 20 years since I used to drive that way to visit the in-laws in
Phoenix, but there was plenty of "Texas Style" places in those days in
Durango, Cortez etc. There wasn't any pulled pork type Q in those days, but
20 years later who knows? as always let your nose be your guide <G>
I hope your going to see Mesa Verde and Canyon De Chelly. How about Monument
Valley? Will you be taking the Durango-Silverton Train? if you do get
tickets before leaving home it often is sold out for long periods of time.
Mutton? never saw that any where did have to dodge plenty of sheep as the
Shepard's drove them across the road though.
Now fry bread that's a staple and be sure and have a Navaho (fry bread)
Taco.
