Ideal off the interstate in a stand-on your own procuring centre sits TX Lodge Bar & Grill, a corner suite with an outside patio a substantial 7-foot indication overhead. Inside of, the minuscule house shows off 3 West Texas-themed photos courtesy of the historic museum and a very simple general glance. In point, dependent off the décor and title, one particular may well feel the establishment is just a further steakhouse, supplying Midlanders the same ole’ pile of meat like usually. Nonetheless, the menu tells a diverse story.

“At the time, I was undertaking MMA and BJJ, but I required a occupation to spend my charges,” Eddie Canepa joked. “I received a job (in Milan) in the kitchen area just to clean the dishes component time.

Sizzling bites

You might imagine placing Italian, Cuban, and American meals on the same menu would seem a very little odd, and I wouldn’t necessarily disagree, but for the Canepas, it is a way to showcase food from their respective cultures and if I’ve said it once I have explained it 100 situations, Midland requires the range.

Due to the fact each dish is made working with clean substances every day, you simply just can not go completely wrong with everything you get.

A handful of enjoyment info: If you have not presently guessed, Eddie and Ellie satisfaction themselves on the freshness and simplicity of their components. To retain in line with this pledge, Eddie only orders 15 to 20 steaks a week from Dallas, so when the slabs are gone, they’re gone. You’ll also come across him making use of a thermometer when grilling steak, a system he thinks every person should use no matter how several many years of experience they may have. He also only utilizes salt and red pepper as seasoning, permitting the combination of normal ingredients converse for them selves.
