up in the great white north, we like red russian, and siberian type kale. they look nice, and taste good. plants can get large. keep picking the leaves, and they will keep growing. very hardy plants. not sure how they will handle texas heat.
lacinato is a decent one.
i have also grown curled vates, might be scotch curled vates. smaller plant with very crinkly leaves.
grow more than one variety, and compare which ones you like best, or do best in your area. they are all good eating.
