Pork Chop Dinner Review:
The Pork Chop Dinner came with two sides, baked beans and cole slaw.  The baked beans was simply grand.  I am not much for cole slaw.  That was a bit of a disappointment, but the Pork Chop made up for that.  The Pork Chop was cooked to perfection.  It had a distinct flavor reminiscent of Ye Olde Steakhouse’s steaks.  This Pork Chop was the biggest, “baddest”, thicket and most tender Pork Chop I have ever seen or tasted.  It must have been five to six inches thick.  It would simply melt in your mouth like butter in a frying pad.  It was just absolutely scrumptiously delicious.   Each bite of the plump Pork Chop was tantalizingly succulent.  That was probably the best Pork Chop I have ever had.

I would have to rate this dinner an A-.  If it was not for the cole slaw, it would have been rated an A+.

Victoria’s Filet Dinner Review:
{9oz. Beef Tenderloin filet served with a choice of Walkabout soup or salad and choice of potato, or fresh steamed veggies.}

I chose the Grilled Shrimp On The Barbie for the appetizer.  The Shrimp was seasoned and served with Outback’s own Remoulade sauce.  The Shrimp was plumb and succulent.  The shrimp was seasoned to perfection and was irresistible.  This made way for the Walkabout Potato soup.  The Soup was thick and creamy.  It was filled with potatoes and cheese.  It was topped with crisp bacon and chives.  It was simply delectable.  For the Main course, I chose the mouth watering Victoria’s Filet with steamed vegetables.  The vegetables were simply grand.  The steak was prepared medium well as requested.  The steak was plump, juicy, tender and would melt in your mouth like butter.  It was seasoned with Outback’s own blend of seasoning.  It was just absolutely scrumptiously delicious.  It was one of the best steaks I have had at the Outback Steakhouse.

I would have to rate this dinner an A+.  I also had sweet tea to drink.

Fillet & Chicken Dinner Review:
{8oz. Beef Tenderloin fillet and a Chicken breast fillet both uniquely seasoned with steamed vegetables and and a twice baked potato.}

Instead of the normal salad I chose the fresh steamed vegetables.  The vegetables included , cucumbers, carrots, cauliflower, broccoli and peppers.   The vegetables were cooked and seasoned to perfection.  I chose the twice baked potato as a side item which was simply superb.  It is the best twice baked potato I have ever tasted so far.  It just makes my mouth water just thinking about it.  The Chicken breast was plumb and tender.  It had a unique taste to it which makes it irresistibly succulent.  The steak was prepared medium well and it was plump, juicy and would just melt in your mouth.  It also had a unique,  mouth watering taste which made it scrumptiously delicious.

I would have to rate this dinner an A+.  They did have sweet tea.

This dinner was followed by Charlie Daniels in concert.
