dip, which includes smoked redfish dip and pimento cheese, each scooped up with Kennebec kettle chips fried in a dedicated beef tallow fryer and pickles ($18). Fans flock to the jumbo lump crabcake main course that lives up to its largesse, accented with pickled split runner beans and a drizzle of sorghum-sweetened hot mustard ($38). The Greener Pastures deboned roast chicken with salsify boulangère and preserved Meyer lemon ($37) exemplifies Caswell's high sourcing standards: The grass-pasture- raised organic chicken, exclusive to Latuli, was developed by Texas A&M football great and Super Bowl MVP Von Miller, a poultry science major who does so without the aid of synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, antibiotics, hormones, and genetically modified organisms. Ranch cuts on the daily special menu hail from Rafter K, Knight's cattle farm, as well as RC Ranch Heard Brand and 44 Farms, and include changing offerings such as a 34-ounce bone-in ribeye, New York strip, and grilled flat iron steaks. Alluring sides, heavy on local produce, include batata brava, sweet potatoes with a chili crème fraiche and crunchy pecan and shallot cracklin' ($11) and field pea posole verde made with lady crem and purple hull peas flavored with smoked pork, avocado, and pickled serrano slices ($12). Latuli's 100-bottle wine program, which focuses on smaller family-run producers who favor organic or biodynamic practices, is selected by longtime Houston sommelier Jeb Stuart, an alum of Coltivare, Night Heron, and Daily Review. He balances approachably priced bottles ($45) with those that top out in the $300 range. Latuli, 8900 Gaylord Dr., latuli.com.
