Texas Roadhouse
Texas Roadhouse is famous for its steak but also offers a variety of great BBQ options, including pulled pork. Our reviewer maintains that the pulled pork sandwich is not to be missed. The pork is “slow-cooked and with some kind of undisclosed sauce,” and “plopped onto a Texas-sized bun and a side of steak fries.” There is so much meat on the sandwich, “I actually had to knock some of it off so I could form a manageable sandwich,” the reviewer writes. “Its natural juicy flavors complement the buttery and toasted bun well, creating cohesion in every bite as well as a savory heartiness. And that’s before I even added in the sauce.”
