Culinary Capers: Oklahoma Steaks

Worn from a long day of driving as our heroes continue their westward trek, they arrived in Oklahoma with both their van and stomachs running on fumes. The great state lent one its most famous resources, massive steaks, for $22.95 at Cattleman’s CafĂ© in Oklahoma City.

The steaks were butchered on site at the restaurant and fresh as can be from the slaughterhouse. We all ate the filet mignon wrapped in bacon with a side of salad and mashed potatoes smothered in white gravy. The hearty meal was topped off with apple pie a la mode which was decided upon by Matt who was Senior Pantalones for the day.
Curse our satiated guts! We had another 4 hours to drive to push on through to Amarillo, Texas before the day’s travels were finished.

Just browsing and came across your blog... I love it! You seem to be having a blast in your travels! Enjoy The Grand Canyon & Bryce. You're missing out by not hitting Zion National Park, too. :)...Or maybe I'm just biased because it's the one I've been to most, being so close to home and all. Have fun!
