AMARILLO - The Big Texan Steak Ranch, the Route 66 steak house made famous for its offer of a free 72-ounce steak to anyone who can finish it, has added licensed brewing operations to its restaurant.The addition effectively makes the Big Texan the state's newest brewpub. Restaurant co-owner and homebrewer Danny Lee is initially offering six beers to customers using a partial mash/DME system, with plans for expansion to 900 square feet of dedicated brewing space.
Ok Hand-craft beer drinkers, the "1836 Chocolate Bock" is now pouring. A lager with Belgium coca power gives this beer a great pairing with the Big Texan steaks.
ReplyDeleteAlso, beginning September 6th we're adding to our bar menu a 72oz Steak Sandwich Slider. We take our world famous 72oz steak, cook it medium-rare, and cool it in our huge refrigerator overnight. Next morning we thinly slice the steak. When you order the sandwich, the meat is warmed, and the 12" X 15" sandwich is assembled using lettuce, onions, tomatoes, pickles, cheese and 4-1/2 pounds of tender top sirloin. The bread is a thin ciabatta brushed with olive oil. A great bread to go with that steak and brew. The price of this MOST WANTED is going to be $72.
No, it's not free to anyone eating it in an hour! But it will feed 9-hungry non-Texans or 1-hungry Texan.
Lastly, our Brewmaster increased our Rattlesnake IPA's IBU from 52 to 73 and in the furmenter is a whopping 99.6 IBUs! If this "bite" isn't enough, I swear I'll cook in the wort a whole, gutted western diamond-back rattlesnake!
Stop in for a cool pint and say howdy. All suggestions are appreciated and welcomed.
Happy Trails,
Danny Lee
