Texas Roadhouse's new location in Washington state will open right next to the Valley Mall in Union Gap on July 29th. In the Yakima Valley, excitement is building for fans of the restaurant chain.

I've never eaten at Texas Roadhouse before, so I'm getting pretty pumped myself.

I was bored the other day, so I did some TikTok scrolling, and stumbled upon some secret menu items we can order.

Have you already tried these Texas Roadhouse menu hacks at other locations?

GETTING TO THE MEAT OF THE MENU HACKS AT TEXAS ROADHOUSE: 7 Food Hacks to Try

 

Hack #1: Adding Pulled Pork to your Cactus Bloom.

Ah, the Cactus Bloom. With ingredients like raw onions that have been coated with a seasoned flour medley and cooked until it reaches a crispy, golden touch, it reminds me so much of the Bloomin' Onion at Outback Steakhouse.

I would have never thought to ask for pulled pork on a Cactus Bloom. Now it's called a "Cactus Blossom." Make that bloom blossom, baby! You can ask for some "Texas Petal" sauce or just dip the deep-fried onion pieces in some ranch.

You can also hack the Cactus Blossom by asking them to smother it in jack cheese.

Hack #2: Chicken Sliders

Chicken Sliders are not on the menu at Texas Roadhouse, so you can improvise by ordering the chicken nuggets and layering a few between a Texas roll. Cover it in ranch sauce for a lil razzle dazzle!

Hack #3: Parmesan Rolls and Sweet Rolls

Just ask for some hot honey cinnamon butter and drizzle it over your rolls to make them a sweet bakery treat. If you're more of a savory bread kind of person, ask for some Lemon Garlic Butter and pour it over your rolls. Then sprinkle on a side of grated parmesan (they use it for their Caesar salads).

Hack #4: Chili Cheese Hot Dogs

This is easy to do: just ask for a side of chili with your hot dog from the Kids' Menu.

 

Hack #5: Poutine

You make some DIY Poutine by asking for a side of gravy and adding them to your loaded "tater" skins. When your bill comes for the meal, ask your server if you can pay for it with a Loonie and Toonie. (You might get escorted out for this, fair warning, HA!)

@nadiafrank39 In this video is a plate of a yummy appitizer I orderer from Texas Roadhouse the name of appitizer is called Tater Skins, it was delish I rate it 5 stars.#tater#skins#Texas#Roadhouse#bacon #cheddar#cheese#sourcream #potato#restaurant ♬ 2 Be Loved (Am I Ready) - Lizzo

#Hack #6: Catfish Po Boy Sandwich

Order the Catfish Platter from their Dockside Menu and ask for a side of their Texas Petal sauce, some shredded lettuce, sliced tomato, and pickle slices. Voilà, c'est vrai!

 

Hack #7: Sweet Deep-Fried Pickles

You won't believe where I heard about this hack (find out in a second). Order the Deep-Fried Pickles appetizer and a side of hot honey cinnamon butter. Pour the sweet butter over your pickles and you have a ChatGPT generative AI food combo to talk about at the dinner booth!

"This might sound strange, but the sweet honey butter from the Texas Roadhouse rolls pairs surprisingly well with the salty and tangy fried pickles." - ChatGPT
