If one were to guess what it was like when old school cowboys feasted--like really feasted--they'd get a good idea by visiting El Corral in Tucson.

The darkest of hard wood accents are matched up with portraits of famed cowboys and country-western singers (You'll even find some of their outfits propped up near the bar).
More conventional meats range from the T-bone steak to a full rack of baby back ribs.
Those looking to get a bit adventurous should order the Rocky Mountain oysters or tamale pie (made in-house since 1975, it consists of a slightly spicy corn and chile casserole topped with melted cheddar cheese). And vegans also have something to forward to as well with the grilled, stuffed portabella mushroom.
