On my recent trip out to Oklahoma, my friend took me down-home to where she grew up. Her parents…read moretook us out to lunch at the Chuck Wagon BBQ. This is one of their favorite places around, and they go there quite regularly. My friend's parents knew quite a few of the patrons there, and it was interesting to be a part of the small-town, everyone-knows-everyone atmosphere.
This place is an order-at-the-counter, get your tag, and pick your seat kind of place. It was pretty busy on a Friday afternoon for lunch, and we sat in the back room which had LOTS of animal heads on display. You've been warned if you don't like that kind of thing!
While they are known for their barbeque, they also have pretty decent Mexican food as well. I went for a Chicken Fajita Nacho plate which was a heaping plateful of tortilla chips, beans, cheese, chicken, green onions, tomatoes, more cheese, and plenty of side condiments for your eating pleasure. It was SO good, but way too much for me to eat. You also get a full basket of chips and salsa and cheese sauce when you order a Mexican dish. Four of us ordered Mexican so we have four BIG baskets of chips. There was SO MUCH FOOD.
This is not a fancy place, just a good old country restaurant with really good food! If the locals are going there regularly, it must be good!
