1. Sausage (little smokie style) Kolache. The OG. Just like the old country.
2. Boudin Kolache. Houston original
3. Ground Sausage Kolache. For the closeted 'mos worried about the optics of a wiener hanging out their mouth.
4. Ham and Cheese Kolache. Will do in a pinch.
5. The fruit filled pastry things.

Due to an unfortunate dairy allergy later in life, I miss these things.

But the old Earl from Shipleys always hit the spot.

The obsession over what is or isn't a "kolache" as filtered through the Czech is bizarre to me.

Kolache's aren't even a big deal over there.

I think Texans should just accept that Kolaches are now Texas-Style kolaches, and we can quit with dumb azz gatekeeping.

I've tried Kolache Shoppe in the Heights a couple of times. Don't think I'll go back. Feel like I'm eating a salt block. Way, way too salty.

What are you, some kind of anti-Slavite?

Pivo, klobasneks and polka have sustained Czechican Americans in Texas for tens of decades. This board is no place for your Slavophobia.

I think a shrimp fajita kolache would be better personally.

I know they are an institution but any list that has Shipley's in top 5 much less top 10 is suspect. I had a sausage/cheese at Hruska's (on 71 to Austin) on Sunday and man was it good. Shipley's taste like chemicals and dough is not great.

Agreed. Shipley kolaches are closer to a pig in a blanket than to an actual kolaches.

cream cheese kolaches are pretty good but cant hold up to cottage cheese with lemon zest and a healthy layer of popsika.

Btw, James Coney Island has some really good chilli cheese kolaches with mustard and onion. You should try them sometime. Wash it down with some Delaware punch, then you really got it going on.

And I don't care if y'all don't agree, my favorite, "kolache," is the Ranchero from Kolache Factory, and in general, I like them the best.

If the Kolaches are not from Kounty Bakery in Schulenburg, then no place in Texas make "The best Kolaches"

Man I miss Christy's Donuts' kolaches. That place is awesome.

Glad to see Bakery Donut get a mention. Love their boudin kolache


But sausage, cheese, and jalapeño is the premiere flavor
