Thanks Eideard, now I’m hungry and it’s not even close to lunch time.
Chicken fried bacon… the mind boggles.
Just try and remember we are not all rednecks in Texas.
That was heartwarming. Everyone in the video will be dead in 6 years.
Just as Brian said, we are not all rednecks. Just like everyone in California is not a movie star.
I didn’t see one person in that news clip that had less than a 36 inch waist! I also like the smoking of tobacco that goes along with the heart association approved diet!
It was even more interesting (although stereotypical) to see the police eating there! At least the tax payers are covering their health insurance costs. Good thing they’re doing what they can to ensure they remain in good health and good stewards of public monies.
Awesome!
Once the Obama Health Plan kicks in, this good ol’ boy restaurant will be in the cross hairs of Barack’s Top 10 Restaurants to terminate with extreme prejudice.
Yee-Haw! I would love to try those if I could find them through the smoke. I wonder if he serves deep-fried Twinkies or Ho-Ho’s for dessert.
(FYI – Sarcasm)
#7 Yep, freedom loving Obamabots will be on this like libs on a homeless shoeshine…
That reporter sounded a lot like he was channeling Charles Kuralt.
Coincidence?
Every single person in that video was obese. EVER FUCKING ONE! SECEDE NOW!
Cardiac disease, no extra charge!
(BTW, I am fully omnivorous, just not suicidal)
J/P=?
When I was living in Texas I used to get a 2 pound burger from a restaurant there all the time. It was delicious. Took me about 2 sittings to finish the damn thing though. Gotta love that Texas cuisine. I wonder if they deliver.
No surprise here, Americans eat shit.
I grew up in Wisconsin where you can get fried cheese curds 24-7 and I thought that was decadent. Just goes to show you Don’t Mess with Texas unless you have a 30-plus BMI. How do these Texans live long enough to breed?
I admit I would try a bite
Unsure if this is worse than the Boston penchant for deep fried dough. Or the deep fried candy bars some places do.
The topper would be to deep fry the bacon strips in bacon fat!
What strikes me as remarkable is that cops were eating that food, and they still manage to put more people behind bars than any other state in the union.
I once had a steak like that hanging over the edges of the plate. Our car broke down in front of a little hotel about 30 miles west of Edmonton, Canada in December, just before Christmas. We ate dinner at the hotel and the steak cost 1.25 Canadian.
# 12 Personality said, “Every single person in that video was obese.”
Be fair. The cooks weren’t fat at all.
This was a bit of nostalgia for me. I used to live in Bryan, TX and we used to drive down the road to Snook for dinner at the Country Inn. Some of the best damned chicken-fried steak ever! Don’t recall he was serving the bacon then. We WOULD have tried it but, heck, the steak was so rich we only ate there about once a month. With the bacon, we’d have been there semi-annually.
Loved his jalapeno poppers and onion rings, though.

Amazing how the right wing nuts fear losing such a destructive life style.
Eating like a pig, experience all the health problems caused by obesity, having Medicare / Medicaid pay their expenses, then denying health care to everyone else as a “government run failure”.
Explains a lot about what hardening of the arteries can do for you.
I think I got some indigestion from just WATCHING that!
But hey, at least they weren’t deep fried snails or some other deep fried “French” delicacy. (And yes, deep frying foods started in France — NOT TEXAS!)
Oh my lord!!
What would Chef Gordon Ramsay say!
