Where to Order Thanksgiving Dinner to-Go

Just when you thought the steakhouse with Dallas’s best customer service experience couldn’t get any more thoughtful, they rolled out a way to make your takeaway Thanksgiving meal extra delicious. Both locations are offering a traditional whole 12- to 14-pound turkey with gravy or a smoked heritage half spiral sliced 7- to 8-pound ham for just $99. Not a fan of turkey or ham? Try the prime rib from the joint’s meat market. But whatever you do, don’t forget to pick up a famous coconut cream pie to delight your guests (or you know, yourself).
