On a Diet? Here's How You Can STILL Enjoy Wobbly Boots BBQ!

Summer (aka- swimsuit season) is just around the corner. This is the time of year when many people try cutting back on calories and may think that the best BBQ in Des Moines may no longer be an option for them. NOT TRUE! We've got a few tips in today's blog that will help you enjoy dining at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse while still keeping things "light." 

Be Picky About Meat Choices
Some meats are a healthier choice than others, yet still have that satisfying hickory-smoked flavor that fills your tummy with happiness. Chicken and turkey are always a great choice when you're searching for a low-fat protein, and if you're craving beef, the lean meat on our Prime Rib French Dip is a good decision. 

Some dishes, like our catfish items, can be ordered grilled instead of fried to make them healthier for you. Another way to get your meat cravings fulfilled but not overdo it is to use them as a salad topping. That way they are mixed in with lots of vegetables to fill you up quickly. Our Cowboy Cobb is a perfect choice, but it is a BIG salad, so if you're worried about eating too much, order a half-portion instead.  

Sauce on the Side
Just like a lot of folks order salads with dressing on the side, our BBQ is available with the sauce on the side. (Except for the Burnt Ends, which are always served with the sauce they are smoked in.) Dishes served without sauce are ordered "dry," but don't worry, that's just a phrase. Our slow-smoked meat itself is never dry, but instead tender and juicy! Getting our house-made BBQ sauce on the side allows you to control exactly how much is added to your meal.

Choose Side Dishes Wisely
Most of the menu items come with at least one of our scrumptious, down-home side dishes. Even though those gigantic Onion Rings and that creamy homemade Mac & Cheese are hard to resist, if you're watching what you eat, we do have lots of other choices that are equally delicious. Instead, order a baked potato, cottage cheese, green beans, or a side salad.   

Drink More Water
Staying hydrated is always a good, healthy idea, but it's also an excellent trick for making your body feel more full. Drinking a glass of water before you eat can help you to eat less for your meal. (You can always get a doggy bag for any leftover food.) If you need a bit more flavor, add a squeeze of lemon to your water, and unsweetened tea is another good no-calorie option. For those in the mood for a cocktail, using water or club soda as a mixer, or simply enjoying a really good liquor over ice, adds zero calories to your drink.  

BBQ may have a reputation for being a "heavy" food, but if you change your ordering habits, you can still enjoy the best BBQ restaurant in Des Moines anytime that you like. Just because it's not deep-fried or covered in sauce, if it comes out of the Wobbly Boots Roadhouse kitchen, you know it's going to be amazing! You can still order the higher calorie dishes on the days you have earned a "cheat meal."

7 Foods To Put You In The Mood For Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is coming Tuesday, February 14, 2017. Have you decided what to get for your sweetheart? Dinner at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse is a great way to start a romantic evening! Some of the menu items at the best BBQ restaurant in Des Moines contain ingredients which are considered aphrodisiacs. Like we said, a great way to start your Valentine's Day! 

An aphrodisiac is a food or drink that arouses desire. This is most often due to the natural chemicals found in those particular foods and the way that they react with your body. Science says this is a real thing. You can choose to believe it or not, but regardless, you're going to get a delicious meal. 

Celery
Believe it or not, this low calorie food that is served along with our Wobbly Wings is actually considered an aphrodisiac. It's known to be a libido booster, it stimulates the pituitary gland, and it contains the chemical "androsterone" which is a potent pheromone. Don't leave this green on the plate! 

Chili Peppers
Spicy chili peppers stimulate the production of your brain's feel-good chemicals, known as endorphins. They get your heart pumping and blood flowing, much like the rush of first love does. The increased blood flow can even bring an attractive blush to your skin and fullness to your lips. The Boot's Chipotle Buffalo Wings can make this happen, and you can even have that spicy wing sauce added to our Buffalo Chicken Strip Wrap.  

Garlic
Once again, an ingredient related to our hot wings is on the aphrodisiac list. Garlic contains allicin, which is a chemical that increases blood flow. That can give a body improved stamina and extra energy. Our Jalapeno Garlic Wings are just what you need, but be sure to have a pocketful of breath mints to go along with them. 

Avocados 
Youthful vigor and increased energy is a side effect of the high levels of vitamin E found in avocados. This particular food has had a reputation for keeping the spark alive since the time of the ancient Aztecs. You can find this tasty treat in our Cowboy Cobb (aka- the King of Salads) and on the Turkey Avocado Wrap.  

Artichokes
The next food on the list is another one packed with vitamins and antioxidants that enhance proper body function and blood flow. Our Spinach & Artichoke Dip is an excellent appetizer, or you can make a meal out of our Spin-Art-Chicken Flatbread. 

Red Wine
In moderation, red wine is a wonderful thing for increasing blood flow, plus it relaxes you and can lower inhibitions. A few ounces along with your dinner and an inspired romantic toast, and your Valentine will be all smiles. 

BBQ Sauce
Technically, our housemade BBQ sauce is not on any official aphrodisiac lists, but we beg to differ. The flavor of it topping our savory hickory-smoked meats is simply irresistible. When you or your sweetheart get a little on the sides of your mouth, you can lovingly wipe it off for them. A great excuse to get a little closer.

Valentine's Day Special
This Valentine's Day, join us at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse for lunch, dinner, or even Happy Hour. We will have our incredible Smoked Prime Rib available (usually reserved for weekends only,) plus if you order 2 entrees, we'll give you a dessert to share for FREE! 

You and your valentine will feel at ease and have the chance to enjoy some delicious food and drinks together at our Des Moines BBQ restaurant. We'll save some seats for you!   

Don't forget you can take home 16 oz. bottles of Wobbly Boots House Recipe BBQ Sauce!!

Menu Showdown: Savory Soups vs. Loaded Salads

The best BBQ restaurant in Des Moines has an excellent variety to offer when it comes to our extensive menu. This time of year, the weather makes a delicious, hot soup a popular item to order both as a meal or as a side dish. On the other hand, lots of New Year's resolutions involve eating healthy and losing weight, which causes many to turn to our yummy salads. Today, Wobbly Boots Roadhouse in Clive will be comparing the wonderful benefits of each of these menu items. After that, the decision is all yours! 

When it comes to the soups and salads on our menu, they have a few things in common. Both are full of healthy ingredients, can tame a hungry appetite, and pair well with the best BBQ in Des Moines. They do differ in a few ways too. 

Soups
A hot bowl of soup is the perfect thing to enjoy on a cold winter morning. Especially right now, because January just happens to be National Soup Month. It's an amazing comfort food, warming you from the inside out. Alone, a bowl of any one of our hearty soups will fill you up, but they are also a wonderful side dish to add to an order. 

We offer our famous Baked Potato Soup seven days a week. It's rich and creamy, filled with chunks of potatoes and bacon, then garnished with cheddar-jack cheese, green onions, and more bacon. In addition to that popular flavor, our kitchen also prepares a hearty homemade Soup of the Day in a variety of delicious flavors. You can try a new one every time you come in.   

Salads
Salad isn't just a side dish at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse. (Although it does come that way too!) We take a crisp blend of healthy greens and add a variety of tasty ingredients. Salads are full of fiber plus essential vitamins and minerals. An easy way to get in your daily dose of vegetables. 

You can stay light with our Garden Salad topped with cheddar-jack & provel cheeses, tomatoes, and red onions. Simple and delicious! Of course, we also offer four other meal-sized salads topped with yummy add-ons, like our hickory-smoked meats and more. 

Salads never looked, or tasted, so good! You can top them with any of our dressing choices: Ranch, Bleu Cheese, Chipotle Ranch, Honey Mustard, French, 1000 Island, Italian, or Fat-Free Ranch.  

Cowboy Cobb
The king of salads! A chilled bowl of crisp greens generously topped with smoked ham & turkey, crumbled bacon, hard-boiled egg, avocado, tomatoes, red onion, and cheddar-jack & provel cheeses. Available in a half-portion too.

Bacon-Shrimp Salad
A chilled salad bowl filled with mixed greens, bleu cheese crumbles, diced tomatoes, red onions, a hard-boiled egg, and finished with our amazing bacon wrapped shrimp.

Chicken Strip Salad
Our large chilled salad bowl filled with mixed leafy greens, generously topped with tomatoes, red onions, mozzarella & provel cheeses, and finished with our hand-breaded tender chicken strips. Also try your chicken "buffalo style" for a spicier version. Available in a half-portion too.

Grilled Chicken Salad
Our giant chilled salad bowl filled with mixed greens, diced tomatoes, red onions, cheddar-jack cheese, mozzarella-provel cheese, bacon, and a hard-boiled egg.

Have both!
In all honesty, both our soups and salads are an excellent choice to order, so we let you have both when you take advantage of our Soup & Salad Combo. You'll get a bowl of soup and a garden salad, or you can even choose to have one of those along with a toasted sourdough Ham & Swiss of Turkey & Swiss sandwich. 

Another option would be to have a cup or bowl of soup along with a half-portion of one of our "meal" salads. You could even bring a friend in with you, order full versions of both, and share. There are lots of delicious possibilities when you dine at the best restaurant in the Des Moines area! No matter what your food preference is, Wobbly Boots BBQ will always serve it up fresh, tasty, and with a smile.
