Popular Fort Worth-born burger chain Rodeo Goat<\/a> is joining the growing lineup of Allen’s new Sloan Corners complex.<\/p>\n

According to a release, the burger joint has signed a lease for a location in the mixed-use development from Billingsley Company at the southwest corner of SH-121 and US-75.<\/p>\n

Opening date is still TBA.<\/p>\n

Rodeo Goat is known for its creative house-ground burgers, hand-punched fries, craft beer, and casual, industrial-style atmosphere.<\/p>\n

The menu includes more than 20 signature burger selections including the popular Bodacious Burger (American cheese, bacon, crispy onions, grilled jalape\u00f1os pickles, smoked jalape\u00f1o mayo, bodacious BBQ sauce); the Blue Jeans Burger (double smash patty, melted blue cheese, applewood smoked bacon, grilled jalape\u00f1os, crispy onions strings, whipped blue cheese, 501 steak sauce); and the Inspector Clouseau (double smash patties, Swiss cheese, caramelized onions, black peppercorn aioli and French onion pan sauce on an onion bun). The \u201cHatch Me if You Can\u201d burger is a popular choice during Hatch chile season, which just concluded in August.<\/p>\n

The extensive drink menu offers domestic and imported brews with a large selection of \u201cmostly\u201d Texas craft beers and a quirky cocktail menu featuring signature concoctions such as the B-L-TX, blackberry lemonade spiked with Texas whiskey, and the \u201cMoontang\u201d with Firefly Moonshine, Tang and \u201cother things.\u201d<\/p>\n

A popular happy hour, AKA “Rodeo Time” offers drink and food specials – like $6 margaritas and 1\/2 off queso – each Monday through Friday.<\/p>\n

Rodeo Goat was founded by Dallas restaurateur Shannon Wynne and partners Keith Schlabs and Larry Richardson, with its first location opening in Fort Worth in 2012. A second location followed in Dallas\u2019 Design District, where Rodeo Goat became part of the neighborhood\u2019s restaurant resurgence.<\/p>\n

The brand has since expanded across North Texas, with current locations in Dallas, Fort Worth, Frisco, Plano, Addison, Denton, Rockwall, and Cypress Waters. There’s also one in Houston.<\/p>\n

Wynne, the founder, has a close relationship with Billingsley Company, the release notes. He currently operates four restaurants at Billingsley\u2019s Cypress Waters development: Rodeo Goat, Flying Fish, Flying Saucer, and Miriam Cocina Latina. The Allen location will be the group\u2019s fifth restaurant in a Billingsley development.<\/p>\n

The Allen restaurant will have prominent visibility from SH-121, an intersection that sees more than 300,000 vehicles a day, the release notes. It will be part of the development\u2019s Bravo Park area, which is planned as a central gathering space with trails, green space, public art, dog parks, and pickleball courts.<\/p>\n

\u201cRodeo Goat is exactly the kind of restaurant we want at Sloan Corners: local, fun, distinctive and already loved by people across DFW,\u201d says Lucy Burns, partner at Billingsley Company, in the release. \u201cWe have a wonderful relationship with Shannon and his team at Cypress Waters, and we\u2019re thrilled to grow that partnership at Sloan Corners. With the visibility along SH-121 and everything happening around Bravo Park, Rodeo Goat will be a fantastic addition.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rodeo Goat will join several other food and entertainment concepts planned for Bravo Park, including Mexican Bar Company, Flat Grounds Coffee, and City Futsal.<\/p>\n

Sloan Corners is envisioned as a major mixed-use destination spanning Allen and Fairview, with office, residential, retail, dining, parks, trails, and other outdoor amenities. The first phases in Allen include more than 180,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space and nearly 4,000 multifamily residences, with future office development also planned.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe place a lot of value on bringing authentic local favorites into our developments,\u201d Burns says in the release. \u201cRodeo Goat brings that energy naturally.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Popular Fort Worth-born burger chain Rodeo Goat is joining the growing lineup of Allen’s new Sloan Corners complex.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":427002,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[3290,1634,102,104,103,2259,3291,148525],"class_list":["post-427001","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-dallas","tag-bests","tag-cocktails","tag-dallas","tag-dallas-headlines","tag-dallas-news","tag-happy-hours","tag-lists","tag-where-drink"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/427001","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=427001"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/427001\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/427002"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=427001"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=427001"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=427001"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
