The Mole Hole Cowboy Restaurant

Movin' on

2011-02-12T15:50:00.000-05:00

The Mole has announced that the Restaurant has closed, but will reopen for the Quinton Cowboys under new ownership in 2011, with a completely different menu and cooks. You have been warned...

June 13 shoot

2010-06-13T20:08:00.001-04:00

Great weather. Franks and beans for lunch, alas. (Not a huge favorite with Rico, but plenty of other cowboys scarfed 'em down. No accounting for taste.)
Next month, beef stew. (Much better.)

May 2 Shoot

2010-04-30T14:39:00.002-04:00

Hey brothers in arms,
Going back to basics. Due to popular (?) demand, Sunday will be servin' up Bush beans and franks, dinner roll (w/butter), soft drink and a bag of chips, w/ some dessert. All for the peasely $5. By the way, ALL YOU CAN EAT! If the 'boys can eat 28 lbs. of beans and franks, I'll be surprised. It may also mitigate the complaints received in the past as to measely servings. Even cowboys get sick of complaints. So, eat up, remember there is only one pot back there...all you guys fill with beans, then what?

Brothers in Shootin'
Due to the upcoming torrential downpours in the area and the fear of flooding, me and the chuckwagon are calling it quits 'til next shoot. Sorry, too long a cattle drive just to be turned away.
Hope to see ya'll April 11th. Keep dry and high!

Mother Nature has sure been cruel to us these last two Sundays. The 13th shoot being cancelled due to the rain left your Mole here with a chuckwagon full of vittles; jambalaya, some Frenchy bread, pickles and the rest. Yellow Mike sent me the smoke signal just in time that the shoot was cancelled so I steered the wagon to St. John's Hospice at 13th & Race in the City of Brotherly Love. Well, with me wearing my cowboy duds, and explaining to Brother Paul this was a donation from the Delaware Blues and the Quinton Cowboys, there were some gaping skeptics but they were very pleased nonetheless. They were able to feed 50+ men and women and were very grateful. See ya'll in the spring!!!

Christmas is Coming

2009-11-19T06:55:00.002-05:00

Hey there pards, Mike the Mole here again with some fine news for the Quinton Cowboys. Come the December shoot, the Delaware Blues Range Club will be providing lunch for free. That's right, it will cost you nada! It is their way of saying 'thanks' to the Cowboys for your continued support and for answering the call to round up some new shooters. They were quite appreciative of your efforts. Here's what's fixin': Louisiana style jambalaya, served in a bowl with some French bread, soft drinks, including fresh coffee, and a special "thank you" dessert. Jambalaya will be loaded with Andouille sausage, smoked chicken, shrimp, rice, lots of veggies in tomato sauce. There'll be plenty, so come back for more!

Now you'll know for sure

2009-11-04T10:57:00.000-05:00

The Mole Hole Cowboy Restaurant will sport a fancy wooden sign (handcarved by Rico for the Mole) at the next shoot. Do drop by and admire it when you come for lunch.

November 8, 2009 Quinton Cowboys

2009-10-22T11:24:00.002-04:00

Hey there Pards,
Got that first one under my belt but I owe ya'll an apology. I promise there will be plenty of food next time. I was a little overwhelmed by the turnout ( and there were a few visitors, by the way) and the beverage selection will be larger, including some iced-tea, diet soda and hot coffee. Come November 8, we'll be serving up plenty of El Diablo chicken, which is hot and spicy shredded chicken on a roll, some 7 day cole slaw, sweet potato casserole, pickles and soft drink for the aforementioned $5. After all the hungry cowboys are served, second plates will be available for a mesely $2. Look forward to the December shoot...that one is on The Mole! That's right! As my way of thanking the Quinton Cowboys, the December 13th lunch is on me! Start praying there will be no snow so that the chuckwagon can make it down that path! See ya'll on the 8th of November!

Future Lunch Events

2009-09-28T11:39:00.002-04:00

Hey all,
Lookin' to make another fancy, fall type lunch dish for ya'll come the November shoot. Lookin' at my famous El Diablo chicken dish, served on a roll or not, with some seven-day cole slaw, some yummy sweet potoato casserole, with a dessert to be named later. Drink included, of course! Also pards, if ya have any hankerin' for your gastro cravins (that's anything special you'd like), please let The Mole know. How's Cowboy Stew sound for the cold shoot in December? Keep in touch and keep checkin' this here sign board. Lookin' forward to October 11, 2009.

Lagniappe, as they say in Nawlins

2009-09-22T14:14:00.005-04:00

Had another idea, pards. We're gonna fix up another extra, somethin' called "Texas Caviar". Don't get yer feathers ruffled... ain't no fish eggs in this here dish. Just something to git another hitch in yer giddyup...and they say it's good fer ya! So add that onto the platter, okay? (Same price, too. Hell of a deal.)

Greetings from the cook

2009-09-21T12:36:00.005-04:00

Howdy pardners, just wanted to introduce myself and welcome you to the Mole Hole Cowboy Restaurant, soon to park the chuckwagon at the Quinton cowboy shoot on October 11, 2009. They call me 'Mike the Mole' fer a number of reasons, I reckon. That sheriff in Yuma didn't take too kindly to me smilin' at his woman; worse when she smiled back! Anyway, I figgered it was better to leave town before it got ugly; he knows my God-given name and might still be lookin' fer me, so I just became 'Mole'. Heh-heh, don't think he'd believe his woman would ever fancy somebody named Mole.
Hope you cowboys check out our opening-day vittles, sure to please even the toughest gunslinger. It'll only set you back $5 in U.S. currency, but I'll accept gold or silver if ya got it! No credit cards, though; they haven't been invented yet. I'll be driving the chuckwagon with my pardner Rico... He rides shotgun with me on the drive from Philadelphia. Hope to see ya'll on the 11th, bring your appetite. And good shootin'!
