The 72oz. Steak There's no bigger steak-eating challenge anywhere! The famous 72 oz. steak is a legend across the US and around the world; so if you can't travel to Amarillo to try it on for size, you now can have one shipped right to your front door!
Some Rules 72oz. Steak Rule # 1 is to have fun. We really want you to win! The $50 dinner consist of a baked potato, salad, shrimp cocktail, roll, and a 72-ounce top sirloin steak. You must sit at the designated table in our dining room. You may not leave the table for any reason once the contest starts. No one may assist you in any way (such as cutting up your meal). You must complete the dinner in 1 hour (if you can't do the meal in an hour, you ain't going get it done in 2 hours anyway). You may not share your meal even if you don't complete the dinner (like take it back to your table to be shared by any folks you may have invited to cheer you on). If you get sick (its been know to happen) the contest is over, period. You can order the steak cooked anyway you want. We will allow you a sample bite (small) prior to the start of the timer to make sure it is cooked to your satisfaction and the taste meets with your approval. Then we start the timer for one hour. You do not have to eat the fat or gristle (if you can find any), but we must judge this. Again, we want you to win but we do know our meats and will judge accordingly. The contest is just that, a contest. The steak is not offered on our menu as a meal. We do not allow the dinner to be ordered as a meal (unless you want to spend $200). It takes us a little more than a half an hour to cook the steak and it is available 365 days a year from 8:00am to 9:30pm. Enough with the rules! Refer to rule #1 - HAVE FUN!
Of course, when you take the 72oz. challenge at home, you don't have to limit yourself to one hour...and, you can share it with your friends and family. Most importantly, you now gain the bragging rights to say you too have savored the taste of this Texas-sized steak.
![]() The successful 72oz. steak eaters in our restaurant will take home a special limited-edition t-shirt proclaiming their gastronomical feat. So until you are able to visit us in Amarillo, why not have a practice session in your own home? Invite a few friends over, and have a Big Texan party!
