    That was the biggest steak and prime rib I have ever seen. You guys go to the best places to eat. That seemed like a really nice place. It seems like you don’t have to travel very far from home to find great restaurants. Love these videos, please keep them coming. 🙏🏻♥️

      Thank you so much. Yes, we are fortunate to have this one fairly close to us. It is a 40 minute drive, but that isn't too bad.
      And yes, that was definitely the biggest prime rib and steak we have had.

    I can’t wait to try this restaurant. Shawnasi, ( hopefully, I spelled that right ) looks like they only serve the Prime Rib on Friday & Saturday after 5:00 ?? And Also, as you said, it’s better to call ahead to get on the waiting list ?? I can cook @ home on the grill or smoker but love a Good Steakhouse. I love Prime Rib and a Bone - in Ribeye ! ❤️

      They did not offer bread or rolls. Some places do and some places don't.
      To be honest, I'm glad they didn't. That's not a big thing for us, and we would have been even more stuffed, if they had. It was already all we could do to walk out of there.

    We ate here today at lunch. We live in Clemmons (which is close to Winston Salem, and we met friends from Limestone, TN there. We had never heard of this place until we saw this video.
    Our food was awesome. I got the ribeye steak with onion rings & salad. My hubby got the jalapeño burger& homemade chips. Each couple got an appetizer. The pork skins that come with 2 different dips. One dip was the hot pimento cheese. Delicious. The other appetizer was the fried cheese curds. I didn’t try them but the others said they were wonderful.
    We throughly enjoyed our food and fellowship. Thanks for sharing your experience.

The steak did come out as one of the most rare I've ever had, and I really hated to send it back. But it was too red, even for me. It was also very thick, so I guess that's why.

    I totally agreed with your review.
    I thought how noisy the crowd and music was before you mentioned it.
    I suppose by seeing the full parking lot you would expect it to be loud.
    I feel bad for the servers because when the kitchen isn’t running smoothly, they often get less of a tip.
    I prefer to have my complete dinner served together.
    I was surprised that their loaded potato did not have an up charge.
    I agree that those butter packs are a disappointment.
    Did you get any rolls or bread?
    I have definitely sent steaks back because I like medium as well. When the blood flows on the plate, it got to go back. I hate to do that.
    Both cuts of meat were huge and farm fresh.
    The price wasn’t mentioned but I seriously doubt that it would be more than R C.
    I am fairly new to the channel but it was heartfelt knowing you were reading the scriptures of the Bible.
    Most people including myself would be on my phone.
    Wonder if the farmer has a butcher shop but you wouldn’t get the savory smoked taste.
    I need to learn how to do shorter comments! lol!!
    Blessings to each of you. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

      No, there were no rolls or bread, but honestly, we didn't miss it. It would have only made us more full than we were, and we already ate too much.
      The prices for each item were on the menu, and we did not show the receipt at the end. She actually took care of that with the card, while I was not feeling well.
      The total before tip, was just over $87.
      When I referenced it being loud, I was mainly talking about the music. There was a guy outside playing the guitar, and he did a good job. I actually showed him at the end. But the speakers were piping the sound inside, and they were very, very loud. That always presents a challenge for anybody trying to record a video for UA-cam. At least this was not copyrighted music, so we didn't get a hit for that.
      But yes, this is a great overall experience and a good meal.
      Also, we try to sit down and read at least 5 chapters of the Bible together, every day. We read it through as a couple often, and we have done that like 7-8 times.
      We figured since we had such a long wait time, that would be a good time to go ahead and get some chapters in.
