When it comes to fast food, many miss the nostalgic vibes that come from the retro color palettes, checkered designs and patio seating common in old-school dining. But now Grapevine’s newest slider bar is taking diners on a trip down memory lane.
Since its founding in 2019, Son of a Butcher has quickly grown throughout the metroplex, opening restaurants in Plano’s Legacy Hall and Lower Greenville. Now its newest slider bar is opening its largest location yet at a 3,405-square-foot farmhouse in Grapevine, and its heated patio and convenient drive-through make it the perfect stop for a quick bite to eat.
Son of a Butcher's sliders come in pairs, trios, or by the dozen for those who like to share or have a particularly ravenous appetite. You can’t go wrong with the traditional classic, which uses organic locally-raised Wagyu beef and the restaurant’s signature comeback sauce for a juicy, flavorful bite. But its other sliders are just as exciting, with the Burnt End slider topped with smoked brisket, gouda and house barbecue sauce and The Popper paired with fried jalapeno and cream cheese. The PB&J offers the sweetest bite of the bunch with blackberry jam, bacon and crunchy peanut butter, and the fried chicken sliders are just as tasty with your choice of buffalo or Texas hot sauce.
Make your meal complete with one of its original sides or delectable beverages. The waffle fries and onion rings can be topped with queso for a down-home Texas cheesy mouthful, while its wild buffalo bleu fries combine the spiciness of buffalo sauce with the tanginess of bleu cheese. Plus its milkshakes bring a whole new level of sweetness, whether it’s the key lime or apple pie, salted caramel pretzel, cookie butter or cookie dough. The best part is that any of its shakes can be made boozy for just $2, giving it an especially swanky flair.
Between the burgers, the buns and the boozy beverages, Son of a Butcher is fit for picky and adventurous eaters alike. The next time you are in the mood for a slider-shake combo, you know where to go.
