The Best Breakfast Taco on the Planet!

November 8, 2023 - November 12, 2023

HomeState, Franklin Barbecue, and Vital Farms, three brands with roots deep in the heart of Texas, are teaming up to bring an exciting, limited-time-only breakfast taco for the ages to Los Angeles, in honor of HomeState’s 10th birthday happening this December. Introducing “The Franklin,” The Best Breakfast Taco on the Planet! The Franklin will feature Franklin Barbecue’s chopped brisket straight from their world-renowned pits in Austin, Texas, cooked on the plancha in garlic tallow, Vital Farms pasture-raised scrambled eggs, cheddar cheese, and Chile de Arbol salsa all wrapped in a HomeState’s award-winning flour tortilla. To make this once-in-a-lifetime taco even more meaningful, HomeState will donate $1 from every Franklin ordered to the Southern Smoke Foundation.
