Twisted Lizard - From Cookoff to Commerce
In this episode of The Building Texas Show, we sit down with Mary Thompson, co-founder of Twisted Lizard Mercantile, a small business that began with a passion for chili cook-offs and turned into a thriving seasoning company. 🌶️
Mary shares the humble beginnings of the company — from farmers markets and homemade batches to commercial kitchens and a full lineup of eight unique spice blends. This is a story of flavor, persistence, and small-town entrepreneurship in true Texas fashion.
Twisted Lizard is also one of the early businesses launched from Das GreenHaus, our rural innovation hub dedicated to empowering local entrepreneurs.
