You loved him when he was part of the funky bunch and now you can feast on his burgers in Texas. Former rapper/now actor Mark Wahlberg says he is bringing his family's burger business to Texas.

Wahlberg announced at Dallas Cowboys training camp that Wahlburgers will open its first Texas location at The Star in Frisco this fall. The restaurant and bar has been around since 2011 and was the focus of a reality show on A&E called “The Wahlburgers”. If you don’t like hamburgers, no problem! Wahlburgers also makes sandwiches, salads, sloppy joes and has a full bar.  According to KHOU, Wahlburgers will also open a location in the Houston area this year as well.

I don’t eat hamburgers all that often, but I may be coerced into visiting the restaurant if the waiters were dressed as Mark in his Calvin Klein poster from years and years ago. I saw this on Ebay.

Or maybe as his character in the movie “Rockstar”.
