Named after the small South Texas town where Carroll co-founded the world’s first chili cook-off in 1967, the Carroll Shelby Terlingua Texas food line will start with three premium olive oils; Prima Virgin olive oil, jalapeño and chipotle. Two gourmet vinegars will feature a garlic and cilantro blend, and a chocolate and jalapeno blend.
