The 40oz Porterhouse


My friend Sebastian and I were hanging out last week and once again we wanted steak. My Dad had told me about a place around here where if you ate this steak in a certain amount of time you get your meal free or something like that. Now that sparked my interest! So after making a few phone calls I found out that the place was called Hereford & Hops. I had never heard of the place so I was very excited.

It is actually diagonally across the street from Longhorn Steakhouse. So Sebastian and I headed out there. They had quite a large steak menu, from ribeye’s to filet mignon. They also have premium cuts of their best meat. The Butcher’s Challenge is a 60oz steak that if you eat it along with the accompanying baked potato in 1 hour and 15 minutes you will receive a $19.95 gift card for your next visit. Well it’s no free meal, but better than nothing! After looking at the menu Sebastian and I both decided on the 40oz porterhouse. It would give us a feel of what a 60oz would be like. The steak comes with your choice of potato and salad.

Sebastian got our steak medium-rare, there is no other way to get a steak! After about 35 minutes we both had finished our steaks as well as the rest of the food. Now we know we can definitely eat the 60oz steak. One thing that is really cool about Hereford & Hobs is that you can actually cook your own steak. There are quite a few grilling rooms where you can select your steak and cook it yourself. There are grill chef’s there so you aren’t totally on your own. Next time I talk about Hereford & Hobs I will be talking about how I ate the 60oz steak!
