Our company was founded in 1998 as Texas Irons, a manufacturing company. At that time our solo product was the personalized steak branding iron. Through the years we've sold thousands ands thousands of steak brands and have extended our product line to include many different unique outdoor cooking tools and gadgets. At our web we realize that guys are very hard to buy gifts for. Most of the time they already have every gadget under the sun. When we set out to add a product to our line we always keep that in mind. We look for gifts that you can't find in every retail store on every corner. Based on the many e-mails we get back from our customers who simply state "He just loved your product" it seems our logic is working. When we think back to our earlier years in business ou rally cry was very basic. "people are proud of their barbecue". Let's give them products that can help them show off that pride. Why else would some cooks spend days marinating? Or others take time to carefully prepare special family rub recipes? (Good luck trying to wrangle secrets away from these hard-nosed chefs! ) The dedication was always there. The only thing missing was a way to bring this pride to the table. With our products each chef can have his / her own brand to show that they slaved over the coals to create the perfect meal for friends and family. At Texas Irons, we figure every great artist deserves to sign his work. Since 1998 our family owned company has filled orders all over the world. From celebrities and royalty to large corporations, our unique outdoor products are a great addition to any backyard chef's tool set.
