Fort Worth, Texas

Me and the kids had a great time in Dallas last weekend for the Cowboys game and we took the opportunity to sample the local cuisine and breweries. Connor and I started at Reata's in Fort Worth where the chicken fried steak, the Jalapeño and Cheese Elk Sausage and Bacon Wrapped Crab Stuffed Jalapeño's were excellent.  Just a warning, however my fish (not sure what I was thinking with that selection) was dry and not good. Nice to have that authentic southern cooking but we really did not get the chance to eat in Dallas since we were only there for a few days.  

We then went to Angelo's barbecue in Ft. Worth and we had an excellent sandwich with barbecue beef, onions, mustard on a very soft roll.

At the Star in Frisco we had a real good lunch in the Concrete Cowboy and Connor had the Mac and cheese burger while I tried to go healthy with the Shrimp ceviche on chips.

Last but not least the surprise of the weekend was the great barbecue at Cooper's Old Time Pit Bar-b-que which was in the Stockyards area of Fort Worth. This was the best Bar-b-que we ever had as you selected the ribs, chicken and beef right off the grill.  If you are in the Fort Worth area go to Coopers.
