Franklin, TN – In celebration of its origins in 1979, Perry’s Steakhouse will host a special event on May 2, offering its renowned pork chop lunch for just 79 cents. This promotional event, named #FlashbackFriday, will start at 10:30 a.m. and will be available at all Perry’s locations.
The first 100 dine-in guests that arrive will receive the pork chop meal, which includes a generous portion of Perry’s Famous Pork Chop, whipped potatoes, and homemade applesauce. This limited-time offer is only available to guests aged 21 and older and is strictly dine-in. Customers will be provided with a special card to redeem their meal upon entry.
For those unable to partake in this unique promotion, Perry’s Steakhouse will continue to serve its Famous Pork Chop lunch weekly from 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on regular days, ensuring that patrons can still savor this beloved dish even after the celebration has concluded.
The 79-cent meal is a nod to Perry’s Steakhouse’s humble beginnings, which started as a butcher shop in Houston, Texas before evolving into the fine dining establishment it is today. Chris Perry, the president and owner of Perry’s Restaurants, expressed the importance of both the founding year and the community’s support throughout their growth. This acknowledgment highlights the company’s commitment to its roots and its relationship with local customers.
Perry’s Famous Pork Chop is notable for its impressive size, measured at seven fingers high, and is a culinary masterpiece made from a secret blend of seasonings. The pork chop is meticulously prepared: it is cured, roasted, slow smoked, and finished with herb-garlic butter, making it a standout item on the menu.
The offer on May 2 operates on a first-come, first-served basis, guaranteeing the first 100 customers the opportunity to enjoy this meal at an unbeatable price. While this promotion will draw significant interest, the full lunch and dinner menu will also be available during these hours for guests who wish to explore additional dining options.
Perry’s Steakhouse, located at 5028 Aspen Grove Dr, Franklin, TN 37067, looks forward to welcoming patrons to join in the celebration of this milestone while enjoying a meal steeped in tradition and quality.
This event was initially teased on the restaurant’s Facebook page on April 22, 2023, generating excitement among existing customers and new guests alike. The special pricing is designed to be a celebratory gesture from the restaurant to thank the community for their ongoing loyalty and support over the years.
