DOE'S EAT PLACE

Let's get back to food.   This place is in every Southern Living, Garden & Gun, and every food show on the Food Network.  

It began in 1941 and has been going strong ever since.   It's in the heart of the historical blues section of Greenville, MS.

That's right, this is the place.   EVERYBODY knows it.  You walk in through the back door into the kitchen.   It smells like your aunt's kitchen out in the country back in the day with meat and gas flames going.   It is awesome.   Hand cut fries frying up in iron skillets on the stove.

There's some antique Viking (also headquartered in Greenville) stove grilling those 3 pound porterhouses perfectly.  

Go in, and sit down and a little 'ol lady will come take your order. There's no menu, there's no prices, so you better study up.   Like I said, a 3 pound porterhouse is the one that put them on the map.   Perfectly seared in that Viking stove, then the drippings are drizzled back on the top.  Simple salad soaking in some kind of vinegar/oil dressing.  Who cares, it's all AWESOME.   

They're also famous for their tamales.   The guys at the next table had a few extras so they tossed them my way.   A nice spicy tamale and I believe they utilize the steak drippings in their making.

   

You gotta go here (but bring some $$).  It is incredible.
