There we were, Jason and Jim (and Tim) on a Memorial Day Monday trying to figure out how we could go celebrate our military. We thought long and hard on it and decided that Texas Roadhouse would be the way to go. Being that Mr. Bush is from Texas and being that Roadhouse was one of the greatest movies ever made we figured that a place combining both of them would offer up a good time, so we decided to saddle up our horses (or Jason's Jeep, Tim at least had a motorcycle to saddle) and set off on the dusty roads and find us some Steak.
There it was. The Texas Roadhouse. A place that lives in legend around these parts with waits on the weekends of over two hours. It opened up pretty recently and everyone who goes there loves it so being a whore for anything new and exciting I was looking forward to trying it myself.
So everyone hears about the women of Texas and it seems that this is represented here in full. The first thing you will notice are the girls. Well, the first thing you will notice if you are a guy are the girls. They are all young and they are all attractive. Talk about slabs of meat. Ha ha ha. And speaking of slabs of meat they walk you past a large refrigerated display case and if you want you can even pick out your own cut of meat and have them cook it up for you, but being that I know nothing about that sort of thing I just walked ashamed to our table, a meat newbie.
One thing that was nice was you get a bucket of peanuts to snack on while waiting for your meal. Being that Texas is a badass sort of place you don’t need to put the peanuts in a bowl or a trash can, so sir, in Texas you throw them right on the floor. While eating at the Roadhouse can feel like a tough guy, sort of like Dalton himself. The bread was also good coming with a sweet butter spread.
Then came our waitress. Wow. Much better then anyone working for Swazie. I think they use girls like that in order to get people like Jason to order more and more beer and pad the bill. How was he to say no to a pretty 19 year old (we asked) girl asking him if he wanted more beer? Willpower? No sir, not here. Our waitress was enough to make us not care about how much money we were spending and spend we did.
I ordered up a 14oz Prime Rib. So did my boyfriend Jason. Tim decided to stand out in the crowd and get something else. The meal came with two sides. I picked the house salad (need to watch my figure you know) and the baked potato with everything on it. The salad was just as good as everything else up until this point (women, bread, etc). Coming with a mashed up boiled egg this salad was a notch above most other places. 4 cheeses. The baked potato was also great, 4 cheeses. Came with a nice salty crust, bacon bits, cheese, some green stuff. Very good.
But then came the steak. Boy oh boy, what a steak. Unlike Dalton you will not look at this thing and think to yourself "I thought he'd be bigger". Nope, its just the right size and along with the rest of the stuff you get you will end up being quite full. As far as my memory goes this is one of the best tasting steaks I have ever had. No steak sauce needed. Just pour on the juices and eat away. Melts in your mouth and the flavor was as good as it gets. If anything deserves 5 cheeses it was this steak. The waitress might be deserving of 5 cheeses but I at least got to eat the steak.
5 cheese for Texas Roadhouse. Great food and that’s all that matters. Mostly. There weren't any strip teases or bar fights but that might have taken away from the food as I am not one for pain.
