The folks at Smokey Bones know the way to my heart...we're about to discuss a ginormous bone-in ribeye. Hells yeah!
They invited me for this magical event - a 35 ounce giant ribeye (my favorite cut of steak). It's bone-in and ginormous! And - if you and your whomever like their steak cooked the same way - it's a pretty good deal. For $60 you get 2 pounds of ribeye + two side salads + two double portions of regular sides + a bag of homemade-to-order donuts!!! This is definitely enough for 2-3 people and at $60 - it's a good deal for all that food!
We started with the Skillet Cornbread which is served with honey-pecan butter. The cornbread is very cake like - a bit too cake-y for me. The butter was delicious though!
We also got our side salads - it was a good salad with lots of extras in it.
But now...THE GIANT RIBEYE
We got sides too - broccoli, baked potatoes, corn, etc. I love when they salt the baked potatoes. I'm on this crazy baked potato kick lately - I can't get enough of them!
Again - isn't it beautiful?!
Now - here's the sad part for me. My mother-in-law was with us so Larry made me order it medium. To me - this is blasphemy. It's just wrong. Steaks come in rare or medium rare - that's it - there is no other answer. Luckily the edges were more medium rare - so I enjoyed those throughly and left the more medium areas for her and Larry.
The medium rare areas were delicious and I was honestly surprised at how well it was prepared and cooked knowing how thick this was. There was enough for all 3 of us plus a good chunk to take home for leftovers!
And then when there's a giant bone-in ribeye - you must expectme to take ridiculous selfies. Duh.
We were all too full for donuts so we got them to go. They were sugar-coated and came with a side of raspberry sauce and a side of chocolate sauce. They were tasty and still warm when I got home - which was enough time for my belly to make room for sugary treats!
All in all - it was a good dinner and we all enjoyed the ginormous ribeye - goofy faces and all!
Why Should You Go? If you can turn down a 35 ounce ribeye - then I'm not sure we can be friends anymore. :-)
Now you can enter to win a $75 gift card to Smokey Bones!!!! Sounds delish!!!
