Last December, my ex-roommate Jessica and I stopped in Amarillo, Texas to visit the Big Texan Steak Ranch & Brewery. We were en route from the Des Moines, Iowa area to Orange County, California. We made the stop along the way.
The Big Texan is famous for their big 72 ounce steak challenge. If someone takes the challenge, and completely eats the entire steak, it is free. We didn't take the challenge, but browsed around for about an hour and a half before hitting the road again.
Well, as things turn out, in celebration of the centennial of Route 66, the Big Texan will be hitting the road along the Mother Road. They will be in Gallup on June 11.
From KOAT:
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — The Big Texan Steak Ranch will take its 72 ounce steak challenge to the Mother Road for its centennial celebration.
The Big Texan will make appearances in Gallup, Albuquerque, Santa Fe and Santa Rosa.
The Big Texan posted this on Facebook:
I hope to be at the Gallup McKinley County Courthouse to watch. It should be fun!
