Where can a person go to find elegant dining, affordable food and personality? A good old-fashion American steakhouse, that’s where.

Ranking in the “America Kicks Ass” list of “Kick Assitude,” steakhouses hold a firm place among the rest. The steakhouse has always been, and always will be, an essential to American life. Without cheap, affordable, delicious steak, the nation would, in fact, crumble and wither.

There is truly nothing like hunkering down, and ordering the rarest, biggest, cheapest piece of meat on the menu while enjoying an ice cold beverage. Sure, it might be called the Outback Steakhouse, but really, it’s screaming “America” all, in and around, the taste bud area. Steakhouse eaters often leave looking like they’ve ridden a rollercoaster of taste, and that, my fellow Americans, is what the steakhouse is all about.

So, next time a Steakhouse appears in the rearview mirror, be Aaron Burr, drop an Alexander Hamilton, put on those sweatpants, and head on over to the neighborhood steakhouse and order the biggest, rarest steak on the menu. Take that fork and knife, slice a juicy sliver of steak, and taste America in your mouth. Savor the taste, that’s what freedom tastes like patriots.
