Texas Roadhouse hosts state, regional
and national level competitions annually,
with the top meat cutter taking home
$20,000. Texas Roadhouse meat cutters
pride themselves on high quality, hand-
cut steaks and look at these competitions
as a way to not only heighten individual
performance, but also to recognize their
employees for their professionalism and
dedication to their skill. Being a Texas
Roadhouse meat cutter is a way of life and
they can cut 250–500 pounds of meat a
day at their specific locations.
How others have used it
Jim Curley, General Manager of AZ Ice in
the Phoenix area, has hosted this event for
the past six years at his facilities. He cred-
its his willingness to say yes to new ideas
and his company's relationship with their
local Texas Roadhouse locations for their
continued partnership.
