Yes it is buffet but also can order off menu. I like it cause all you can eat buffet and large portions off menu.
Who knows if chicken fried steak is on buffet we will keep-em hoppin.
He will have several "entrees" (twenty dollar word, ding ding) on buffet. It won't be crowded at 11 but they have two dinning areas anyway.:)

Don't leave out the desserts. Last time there was all sorts of pies and such. Man was I ever full when we left.:eat3:
 
Darn, have to bow out. Have a good time. Hope to make the next M&G&E.
 
Decided to check the place out today. Here's a pic of the chicken fried steak I had. Actually, I could only eat half of it. Gravy was great, but the all important meat to coating ratio was off, in that there seemed to be more breading than steak. But, there is so much, you could scrape all that excess batter off and still have way too much food!

That's why we go there, portions are small at other places and not near as economical. Those ranchers farm hands like a deal and a lot when it comes to food. The BBQ next door is pretty good and gives more than most at half the price. We buy all our meat there. Their raw sausage (3 or 4 kinds) is good to take home and grill. I like the beef sausage. Louie Mueller in Taylor is great, but twice the price and crowed. Two meat plate special on Monday at T-Dale Meat Market I eat half take the rest home for supper for wife and I. I get Beef and Sausage or ribs.
Hope to see you there tomorrow morning

Good thing we found this out of way self service gas stop. My low fuel light was on. Enjoyed the ride after Drew. maybe you can get with Boulder Ed on campout we discussed. His place is beautiful, and we welcome Ed and his wife Dena to Milam County Texas.
Drew, I can't believe how many people rode to your event on a Thursday Really enjoyed it. You can sure ride a gravel road on that bid Kawasaki 14 Sport Bike. KSP I nominate you TWT member of the month!

Thanks for the complements Clay. Thank you for leading us around for the first half of the after ride and Rod for the rest. Enjoyed seeing so many people there for a Thursday. 13 in all not bad for short notice and not the regular Sunday. Was not able to visit with everyone sadly but we will see you again at the next one. Had some tender steak fingers and tasty chicken. Good to see you all again. Was good to recharge the ole batteries and get out there and enjoy the beautiful day. What a perfect day to ride.:rider:
 
I think that musta been premium gas or moonshine I put in my Royal Enfield, it seems like it has much more power:lol2:
 
Glad every one got to meet me again are for the first time had great time and enjoyed, day start out a little wet but ended a great summer day wait its November but we are in Texas. Have not been on that side of I-35 in a long time found some gravel on the way back and something I did not expected to see in the prairie.

The last day for that Lignite Coal conveyor is Dec 31st, 20017 it and Illuminant Power plant and others are shutting down. 450 jobs or more lost. It will hurt Rockdale and surrounding areas. I think I heard Franklin Power Plant is closing too. 33000 thousand acres for sale. Signs have been up some time. Make a **** of a off-road park. I will miss the sound of the conveyor on still nights. They paid a lot of taxes.
 
I'm the only dope that didn't know about this M&G&E and am maybe 30 minutes from Thorndale. So I was the only one at Billy's. Lunch was quiet. That's what I get for not getting on TWT very often.
