ABILENE, TX – It’s 2001 and I am living in Abilene, TX, where I am a college cheerleader at Abilene Christian University….and WITHOUT FAIL, every time my parents would come to town, we would end up having dinner at “the restaurant that’s President Bush’s favorite,” Perini Ranch. It was always a meal that I looked forward to because it felt like home, but it also felt special. We would drive about 30 miles to Buffalo Gap, TX & enjoy a meal that was LITERALLY FIT FOR A PRESIDENT.
So fast forward almost 20 years, and this past winter, when Tom Perini debuted his cookbook, my fiance, Kyle Noonan hosted the launch party here in Dallas…..TALK ABOUT A FULL CIRCLE MOMENT FOR ME! Tom & Kyle exchanged tales of the restaurant industry…and while Kyle has stories that are quite entertaining, nothing compares to Tom telling us about his time at the James Beard house, his relationship with George W. Bush, cooking at the Governor’s Mansion, & even driving his mesquite smokers up to the White House Lawn for a catered Congressional Picnic!
Perini Ranch has made their FAMOUS Perini Ranch Mesquite Smoked Peppered Beef Tenderloin available to be shipped nationwide for anyone to enjoy…& it was actually selected the mail order gift of the year by the New York Times!
So because I miss West Texas & all of my delicious meals spent in Buffalo Gap, TX at Perini Ranch Steakhouse, I want to deliver this little slice of meat heaven to one of yall….so you can see what all the fuss is about…and get it delivered to you, right in time for a Christmas dinner!
Here’s whats included inside this incredible Perini Ranch gift: 2 Mesquite Smoked Peppered Beef Tenderloins, 1 Mesquite Smoked Peppered Beef Brisket, Cowboy Coffee, 2 Perini Ranch Coffee Cups, the Perini Ranch Cookbook with some of their finger-lickin’ recipes, Perini Ranch Steak Rub, Perini Ranch Rib Rub, and a baseball cap & apron!
