The drive from Norman to Houston is 433 miles and around 7 h 43 min on an empty road. Add to that for the time of day you travel.
Norman is in Cleveland County.
Oklahoma has honorary consuls at Oklahoma City. They handle local questions and forward documents, and none of them is listed as able to take passport applications.

What you can settle without travelling
Check this list first: it often removes the trip.
- Find out whether you are German at all: the dates of your family's emigration decide it, and you can work that out from your own records before anyone books an appointment
- Track a passport that is already in progress: it is printed in Berlin and the six to eight weeks are set there, not at the counter that took your application
- Order copies of German civil records for a citizenship file: those come from German municipalities by post, and they are the slowest part of any descent case
