Last week we explored the finest burgers in Dallas and it is only fair we tell you about some of our favorites in Fort Worth. Fort Worth means Stockyards, which means beef and they have plenty of the good stuff just waiting for you.

We hope you find our list thoughtful and invite you to not only try them all as a bucket list, but to tell us about your favorites. We will be sure to check them out for future publication because we do love a good burger.

Thank you Trey Moran for your guidance! Continue reading

Q&A with Kenny Mills at the Original Chop House Burgers

millsby Steven Doyle

I have known this week’s chef for quite a while. He has an air of no-nonsense charisma that makes for a unique chef that has blazed a trail in the DFW area for many years now,  loading us up with beef created many different ways, from a bountiful haunch plated pretty to a fantastic bunned bit of savoriness.

No doubt that as an avid reader of these pages you have heard mention of chef Kenny Mills who re-opened his award winning Original Chop House Burgers in Arlington just recently to accolades. A man who makes a burger that we queue up for with bated breath. A man we just recently sat with and discussed his interesting history. Continue reading

We Check Out Restaurants That You Won’t Part II

girl-eating-ribsby Steven Doyle

A few weeks back I proposed I should go forth into the city and take on a few restaurants that one reading craveDFW on a regular basis not deem as craveable. I solicited a list of what soon became a dare with those commenting on Facebook. I am sometimes referred to as food snobbish, and nothing could be further than the truth. As long time readers are aware we will write about things we love, and leave the rest of the chaff for those that prefer writing more hateful tomes.

Negative is so much more fun and easier to write. A critical expression is also more entertaining to write, I can guarantee. However, we wish to give our gentle readers something they might actually be able to use on a date night with their loved ones as opposed to a half hour of dredge that is totally unusable. Take all this how you will.   Continue reading

It is so good that they build them in a myriad of sizes from a slice to six steps up to a full sheet pan full of Black Forest goodness.    Continue reading
