After Dr. P came back from his trip to Utah, he told me one of the restaurants he was craving for was Stonefire Grill.  I have been telling Dr. P about their Tri Tip BBQ Salad, and he really wanted to try it.


BBQ Chopped Salad (Small) ($7.99)
Choice of BBQ chicken or BBQ trip tip with mixed greens, black beans, roasted corn, carrots, red cabbage, cilantro and jack cheese tossed with tortilla strips and buttermilk ranch dressing and topped with tomato and scallions

The BBQ Chopped Salad with tri tip was served in a bowl.  The salad was tossed with ranch dressing, not too heavy, just the right amount.  All the vegetable was fresh.  Dr. P liked the roasted corn a lot.  The tri tip was fantastic as always.  However, I thought my previous to-go orders had a lot more meat than the dine-in one.  The two of us only managed to finished half of the salad.



1/4 Chicken and Rib Combo ($10.99)

We also ordered a 1/4 Chicken and Rib Combo to share.  The rib was really good, but the chicken wasn't on that day.  The chicken was super oily.  You can see all the oil on the plate in the photo.  Not only that, it was totally under seasoned.  We didn't like the chicken that day at all.


Greek Salad

For the salad that came with the combo meal, we picked Greek.  Love the refreshing cucumber and my favorite feta cheese.


Breadsticks

And their garlic breadsticks are always yummy.

I can never get enough of their tri-tip and salad.  I've been wanting to try their pizza and pasta, but now every time I go there, I just want the tri tip salad.  What to do what to do?
