It happens every year. You’re taking sips from your glass of eggnog, possibly watching a holiday-themed movie on TV, and thinking about how much time you still have to prepare a Christmas dinner.
In reality, the festivities with the family are literally days away.
So, if you’ve been lucky enough to inherit the cooking responsibilities for this year’s feast, and you’re a little on the overwhelmed side of the dinner table, don’t fret because The Horseshoe Grill is granting all of your holiday wishes.
From now until Monday, December 17, the east side restaurant is accepting orders to be picked up between the times of 11 a.m. – 8 p.m. on Saturday, December 22. This year, you’ve got your choice of turkey, brisket, or pasilla tamales — perhaps all three of the choices if you’re looking for a variety on the table.
Also, since it is a time to receive gifts, but more importantly give, the Horseshoe Grill is giving $10 for every $50 spent and also $20 for every $100 spent on holiday orders.

Christmas Dinner Menu
- Mesquite Smoked Turkeys – slowly smoked over mesquite wood, seasoned with The Horseshoe Grill’s signature rub, and finished in your oven at home
- $49 for 10-14 pounds
- Mesquite Smoked Brisket – fully cooked, mesquite smoked, and then rubbed and pre-sliced in The Horseshoe Grill’s traditional barbecue sauce
- $59 for a half order (3-4 pounds)

The Horseshoe Grill suggests that the average person eats about 1/3 to 1/2 pounds of meat, which is assuming you’ve already got the sides and other entrées being prepared in your kitchen.
Now, doesn’t that make you feel better? All your Christmas dinner uncertainties are nearly solved — just be sure to get your order in before Monday, December 17.
The Horseshoe Grill is located at 7713 E. Broadway Blvd. To get your order in on time, visit thehorseshoetucson.com and call (520) 838-0404 for any other information on the restaurant.

Matt Sterner
More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
