Well I’m not gonna say this is my favorite restaurant but we enjoy staying here and eating when rolling. RV spot and two catfish dinners came to $53. Bread n butter, hush puppies, catfish, fries or coleslaw and apple fritters for desert. We could not plate all we were given. It is great road food, didn’t have to cook or clean!
They had an interesting assortment of spices for sale too.
Ohh man, I've eaten catfish there too many times to count. I grew up in Seminole, which is 9 miles south of there. And my Dad who still lived there, loved the Round Up. Every time I go home to visit, Dad took us to the Round up.
But honestly, Dad's catfish was better. Our family catfish tradition went back into Arkansas, where my Uncles would go to the White River to get the catfish. They said there were none better than White River catfish.
And they had a big cast iron kettle, they would fill half up with grease. And build a wood fire under the kettle. They would throw an unlit match into the grease and when the match lit, the grease was hot enough to for the fish. Seasoning was yellow corn meal, very simple, not a big thick batter. It was delicious.
And my Grandad's farm was 1 mile south of the Round Up, and 1 mile east. That's area is really in my roots.
I of course love smoked meats of all kinds, but also like quick cooks like chicken portions, pork tenderloins, steak and fish. Really into cooking of all kinds.
My outdoor kitchen has a Lone Star Grillz Adjustable and it is wonderful. There also is a Pit Boss 5 Burner Ultimate Griddle and a Pit Boss Copperhead pellet grill.
There is an outdoor fire pit that has grilling capability and limited Santa Maria-style grill raising and lowering.
The Bullshit rub is my main rub for beef. The Goodshit is tasty, too. They are available at the Hasty-Bake Store in Tulsa but are a couple of bucks higher than most rubs. They're worth it, though!
