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."

A Mountain of Food - the Wobbly Boots Sampler!

There is an enormous amount of delicious food to choose from on the menu at our Des Moines BBQ restaurant. Sometimes it can be very difficult to decide which dish you want to order. One menu item that allows you to get a taste of not one, but four of our amazing food choices, is the Wobbly Boots Sampler.

It may be listed in the appetizer section, but if you tackle this plate on your own, it's more than enough for a full meal! It's also a great choice if you'll be sharing with a few friends. Here's a little more about each of the mouthwatering treats you get when you order the Wobbly Boots Sampler.

Wobbly Wings
Wings are quite possibly one of the most popular items on our entire menu, and with the Wobbly Boots Sampler, you get 4 of them to try. One thing that makes them so very tasty is the fact that they are smoked rather than fried.

First, we take jumbo chicken wings and then we coat them in our house dry rub. Next, they are slow-roasted over hickory, ensuring only the most flavorful, juiciest wings possible. The flavor is incredible, even if the wings are served plain, but if you are in the mood for sauce, you can pick from these:

BBQ
Jamaican Jerk
Dijon Hot
Jalapeno Garlic
Chipotle Buffalo
Habanero BBQ

Baby Back Ribs
When you dine at a BBQ joint, you really should give their ribs a try. Here at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse, you'll certainly be glad when you do! The 4 Baby Back Ribs on our sampler are very likely to make you crave an entire dinner featuring this incredible hickory-smoked meat!

We prepare them for the smoker by adding our special dry rub. Once they're done in there, they are lightly grilled and basted in our house recipe BBQ sauce before being added to the plate. They are tender, mouthwatering, and the very best in ribs!

Bacon Wrapped Shrimp
Another extremely popular item from our appetizer menu is our Bacon Wrapped Shrimp. They are small treats with a great big flavor! 4 jumbo shrimp are each individually wrapped in our hickory-smoked bacon. Once that is done, they are grilled to perfection and served with a side of our own Jamaican jerk sauce. Delish!

Famous Onion Rings
This dish normally comes on a plate as a full or half-order appetizer, or sometimes people upgrade their side dish for dinner to include these crispy treats. On the Wobbly Boots Sampler, you will get 4 of our amazing onion rings made from thick-cut yellow onions. We bathe them in buttermilk, then hand-bread each in our seasoned flour and fry them to a golden brown. The chipotle ranch dipping sauce is great for dipping!

So, are you ready to give the Wobbly Boots Sampler a try? It's a wonderful introduction to a few of the tastiest menu items at our family BBQ restaurant in Des Moines, and this mountain of food is suitable both for a BIG meal or for sharing. You can't go wrong when you order 4 foods in just 1 dish, but of course, no matter what you choose to order from Wobbly Boots Roadhouse, it's going to be a delicious decision.

Every Wonder Why Bacon Is So Irresistible? This Is Why...

Just the smell of bacon wafting through the air is enough to make most people's mouths immediately water, and once you get a bite, it's tough to make yourself stop eating it! We witness bacon's effect on a daily basis here at our Des Moines BBQ restaurant each time we bring in a fresh batch from the smoker.

It's a natural reaction that is pretty hard to control, but have you ever wondered why bacon causes such an uncontrollable reaction? Wobbly Boots Roadhouse did a little research on the subject, and we found out there are actually some scientific reasons why this particular food is so very appealing.

The Science of Bacon
Some foods contain a single molecule that is responsible for what you taste. For example, bananas and almonds are very distinctive flavors that mainly rely on a single molecule for flavor, but as yummy as they may be to you, those are foods that aren't too difficult to resist.

Bacon, on the other hand, has a phenomenal combination of factors that come together to create that crispy goodness. The best explanation that we found came from an online article from the BBC. It gets a bit scientific, but it's extremely interesting for any bacon-lover.

" 'Some of the major flavour players are the result of the pork belly's fat breaking down,' says Guy Crosby, food scientist and science editor at America's Test Kitchen. 'It's not just the white marbling that's in play. The cell membranes of the muscle tissue contain fatty acids that disintegrate during cooking to yield a bouquet of flavourful compounds like aldehydes, furans, and ketones. By themselves, some of these molecules have distinct tastes or smells – furans have a sweet, nutty, caramel-like note, aldehydes a green, grassy note, and ketones tend to be buttery – but whatever they are doing together seems to be key. If any of these classes of molecules were missing from the overall bacon flavour, you would notice it.' "

So basically, the combination of sweet, nutty, caramel-like notes + green + grassy notes + a buttery flavor all come together in a magical way to create the magnificent bacon flavor we all know and love! The kind that you get from our family-friendly restaurant in Des Moines takes bacon's flavor one step further because we prepare it in a smoker over hickory.

Hickory-Smoking Makes It Better
Even though bacon seems like a food that couldn't possibly get any better than it already is, the Boot goes and does it! The rubs and spices that we add to our bacon play a part in the final flavor it takes on. The chemical reactions of everything combined create a variety of tastes, pointing the various molecules in different directions.

The act of smoking bacon causes the meat to take on a distinct set of flavor compounds. The best hickory-smoked meats in Des Moines go through a long, slow cooking process, making them the best in the Midwest. The smoke created by our hickory wood releases both acrid and sweet-smelling compounds that combine to add that amazing extra flavor that puts our bacon far ahead of any other you've ever tasted.

Bacon at the Boot
The menu at Wobbly Boots BBQ features quite a few items that have to give the credit for a portion of their great taste to the addition of bacon. There are plenty here to get you started, but if you see another menu item that you want to have bacon added to, we can definitely do that for you.

Bacon Wrapped Shrimp
Texas Fries
Turkey Bacon Ranch Wrap
Cowboy Cobb Salad
Loaded Baked Potato
Baked Potato Soup
B-L-T Flatbread
Buffalo Bacon Chicken & Jalapeno Flatbread
Wobbly Melt
El Diablo Burger
Bacon Egg & Cheese Burger
Wobbly Style Club Sandwich
Buffalo Chicken Sandwich
Catfish BLT
The Griller

Wipe the drool off your chin, hop in the car, and get yourself to Wobbly Boots Roadhouse in Clive. You can enjoy not only our incredible bacon, but also all of our amazing hickory-smoked meats 7 days a week for lunch or dinner. If you're a bacon-lover already, come on in and give our fantastic version a try. If you're not big on bacon, we're willing to bet that ours just may change your mind.

What Hits the Spot in the Winter? Warm, Southern Comfort Foods!

It doesn't have to be cold outside for you to enjoy Wobbly Boots Roadhouse's delicious Southern Comfort Food menu, but eating a great big hot plate of it on a winter's day seems to make it taste even better than usual! Our Des Moines BBQ restaurant is the perfect place to go when you're craving a mouthwatering meal to combat winter's icy chill.

In addition to being served hot so that it warms your body up, "comfort foods" also offer a cozy feeling that resembles a great big hug to warm up your soul too. The dictionary describes comfort as " a state of ease and satisfaction; a feeling of relief or consolation; to soothe, console, reassure, or bring cheer to." A comfort food is categorized as a dish that is fairly simple to prepare (especially when you let Wobbly Boots BBQ take care of the cooking) and has some type of nostalgia associated with it for you. You know, the stuff like Mom used to make!

Comfort Foods at the Boot

Three of the four fantastic menu items below are prepared in that wonderful smoker that also makes our hickory-smoked BBQ so irresistible. The last one is hand-breaded and deep-fried to perfection. YUM!

Smoked Meatloaf
Not exactly like mom made, but every bit as delicious! Our handmade meatloaf is slow-roasted over hickory. Absolutely one of our best dishes and a customer favorite. It is served open-faced with homemade smashed potatoes, brown gravy, and green beans.

Smoked Turkey Dinner
A generous portion of our all white meat smoked turkey breast served open-faced with smashed potatoes, then covered with delicious turkey gravy and paired with a side of our homemade cheesy corn.

Prime Rib Hot Beef
Our house-smoked Prime Rib thinly sliced and served open-faced on white bread with smashed potatoes, beef gravy, and green beans. Stick to your ribs delicious!

Chicken Fried Chicken
A juicy chicken cutlet tenderized and hand-breaded, then fried to golden perfection. Next we add some of those incredible smashed potatoes and slather it all with white country gravy and serve it with a side of green beans.

Does That Make You Hungry?
It should! If you've had the pleasure of dining at our family restaurant in Des Moines before, you already know that we only serve the most delicious, handmade dishes full of incredible flavor from our kitchen. If this is your first exposure to Wobbly Boots Roadhouse in Clive, you should know that even though everything from our Southern Comfort Food Menu sounds and looks awesome, that's nothing compared to how amazing it actually tastes!

The same can be said about our entire menu full of a wonderful variety of dishes made to please everyone in your group. Call your friends or load your family in the car and get everyone here for a fantastic meal that will leave you all anxious to come back again soon for even more!

Wobbly Wings & Iowa Football - A Perfect Pair!

The holidays are upon us, and more than this being a time to share with family and friends, it also means that there are a lot of college bowl games coming to the best place to watch sports in Des Moines! There are many delicious menu items at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse in Clive to enjoy with an ice cold Iowa beer from our tap while you watch the games, but by far the most popular football food always seems to be those jumbo Wobbly Wings.

Wobbly Wings
As we mentioned, there are many menu items that seem to pair nicely with watching the game, like our Bar-B-Que Pork Nachos, Sliders, and Bacon Wrapped Shrimp for example. For some reason though, Hot Wings seem to be the favorite.

Our preparation may have something to do with that because, on a wing scale of 1-10, ours sit at about a 20+! First, we coat jumbo chicken wings in our special house dry rub. Then they get slow-roasted over hickory for the perfect amount of time, ensuring only the most flavorful, juiciest wings possible! They taste amazing served plain, but our wing sauces add even more unbelievable flavor.

Bar-B-Que - Our own homemade in-house BBQ sauce. A perfect addition to wings (or any meat, for that matter!)
Teriyaki - Our own house-made sweet & sticky glaze... DELICIOUS!!!
Hot Dijon Sauce - A little hot mustard + buffalo sauce + some sweet = Delish!
Jalapeno Garlic - Minced jalapenos combined with garlic in a butter sauce. A great flavor mix!
Chipotle Buffalo - Buffalo sauce infused with chipotle peppers making a buttery, smoky buffalo sauce.

You can order a plate for yourself of 5 or 10 wings, or go big and get the plates of 20 or 30 wings to share with a few fellow football fans. The more you order, the more sauces you can try!

The Pinstripe Bowl
The awesome Iowa Hawkeyes will be taking on the Boston College Eagles on Wednesday, December 27 at 4:15 pm in New York City at Yankee Stadium for the Pinstripe Bowl. This is the 5th season in a row that the Hawkeyes have ended their year with a bowl game. Both teams are going into this with a 7-5 record. Be sure to get to the Boot early and get a great seat to cheer on our boys. This game just happens to start during Happy Hour (3-6 pm) so perfect timing!

The Liberty Bowl
This year Iowa State's incredible Cyclones will be playing the Memphis Tigers in the Liberty Bowl on Saturday, December 30 at 11:30 am in Memphis, TN at the Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium. This will be ISU's first bowl appearance since the 2012 Liberty Bowl. They are said to have one of the better defenses in the country this year, so we're expecting an exciting game! Come on by and grab a seat when we open at 11 am, order some lunch, and settle in for a great game.

Catch ALL the Games
With 17 TVs positioned conveniently throughout our Des Moines BBQ restaurant and bar, 18 tasty brews on tap (including many local craft beers,) an extensive menu, and the best wings in town, this is truly the best place to catch all of your favorite sports! Gather the family or call your buddies and tell them to meet you at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse for some delicious BBQ, refreshing drinks, all the awesome sports action, and an all-around great time.
