bachanon Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 i know that sounds horrible! lol. it isn't "used" meat or leftover....just cuts not served. i'm not sure how else to describe it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbigtex56 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Neither does the server, apparently. "We carefully select the cuts of meat for their intense flavor" springs to mind. edit: and I shudder to imagine what 'used meat' might be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kylejack Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I'm not sure, it was before my time downtown. After that Rucker was at Rainbow Lodge, and then he was doing dinners called Tenacity Supper Club. Bootsie's is his mom's place and he's building his own right now (Connate).
