A “shindig” in Texan talk is the same as a “party” in any other language.  And regardless of the type or size of party you might be planning, the Big Texan is sure to have a room and a menu to make your celebration a success.
 

A willingness to create an atmosphere of fun for every special occasion is evident in the parties planned at the Big Texan Steak Ranch and Motel. Any type of party or group is welcome, from 20 to 20,000 people. With our "natural" capacity for handling groups, you'll be pleased with all the "Texas Hospitality" you get for your buck!

Special attention is showered on every group that plans an event at the Big Texan. Our well-trained sales staff will tailor your visit here to fit your group's plans and budget. Whether you're looking for lodging, a themed menu, or a complete package for your reunion, wedding, meeting, or special occasion, we customize a memorable time for your group.

Do you need room for a small group or lots of space for several hundred people? We have the perfect setting right here at the Big Texan to accommodate almost any size party. The Big Texan Cowboy PALACE and COURTYARD, the RJ LEE Room and the MARY ANN LEE Room each have a unique style and personality to accommodate your family and friends.

No party would be complete without entertainment, and the Big Texan will assist you in finding the right entertainment for your event. We have contacts with a number of bands, and individual performers, who can play anything from rock to classic country. Singers, dancers, comedians, magicians, and specialty acts can bring extra life and excitement to your Big Texan party or event.

Though The Big Texan Steak Ranch is famous for steak, we offer a wide variety of entrees on our party menu. Beef, pork, lamb, seafood, and chicken all have a tasty role in Chef Daniel Lee's culinary repertoire. Chef Daniel is an Epicurean master with extensive training in seafood and natural Dry & Wet Aged Beef. His sauces, vinaigrettes, soups, and desserts provide a delectable adventure for your tastebuds! He's accomplished with Southwestern seasoning, New Orleans-style cuisine, and good old-fashioned Texas fare. Big Texan has served elegant dinners for such notable clients as the Amarillo Symphony, the Junior League of Amarillo, Baptist-St. Anthony's annual Lyceum, Bell Helicopter-Textron, and the Amarillo Pantex Plant. The list of celebrities we've served includes James Earl Jones, Sam Donaldson, Michael Martin Murphy, Billy Bob Thornton, and Patrick Swayze.

While we enjoy doing parties at "our house," we're also happy to come to "yours"! As a matter of fact, we've taken our food as far away as Vail, Colorado; Phoenix, Arizona; Austin, Texas; Los Angeles, California; and Washington, D.C. The Big Texan's professional catering crew prides itself on being able to provide customized service, whether your plans are focused on formal service or a casual buffet. We guarantee we'll provide the best tasting food, the liveliest entertainment, the most courteous staff, and incomparable service on premises or off.
