Let’s Talk about The Brothers Houligan in Tulsa

by | May 7, 2022

Let’s talk about cottage fries, gravy and getting F’d up!! Just in case anyone isn’t in the know, I’m talking about The Brothers Houligan in Tulsa! You can talk about chicken strips and the chicken fried steak all you want, and they are certainly good, but that’s not why I go. Not only does The Brothers Houligan have some of the best gravy in Tulsa, but they also have unlimited cottage fries with a dinner entree! Okay that makes sense Steve, but what about the F’d up part? I’m going to get to that you lushes!

Let’s talk about that long island ice tea! It does not play. The first word after my initial drink was damn! Hey, there is a reason their long island is labeled as LIT on the receipt( you know besides that being it’s initials!). Now if you are one of those individuals who can down a case of beer, eat a xany bar and still wake up for work in the morning, you may not be impressed. But for the rest of us… Damn!!! By the end of the meal I was drunk texting my own wife who was right across from me, grabbing my own cheechees, and gearing up for some g00ch kickin’ (Facebook disclaimer -this is said in jest, and not an attempt to incite violence!)

Now, let’s get back to the food! I got the chicken strips which are always great. Well seasoned and perfectly cooked. The wife got the steak fingers, also great. I got the dinner entree which came with a salad and they have a solid blue cheese which I have found to be uncommon in Tulsa. We both got cottage fries and a family style bowl of green beans is included. My wife loves the green beans. I’ll take her word for it, as my tolerance for vegetables is low!

The star of the show are those cottage fries and gravy though!! Now I’m not easily impressed by gravy. Mine consists of onions and some kind of floured meat fried in a combination of tallow and bacon fat. So when I tell you it’s solid, you can take that shit to the bank!! If you are not familiar with cottage fries, they are basically criss cut fries. Those little holes hold gravy perfectly, giving you a great bite every time. And like I said, they are bottomless if you get the dinner entree. You know what else is bottomless? That gravy!

So if you like being full, lit and happy, Brothers Houligan is your spot! The service is also great. They have that zone system so you never have to worry about finding your server and things just get done. I’ve been there several times and never remember my drink being empty. Also, if you aren’t in the mood to eat, they have a full bar. 

Nothing else to say! Fried meats, great gravy, solid blue cheese, unlimited waffle fries, and enough alcohol in their long island ice tea to tranqualize a bear ( or so I’m called in some communities). If you haven’t been, go. If you’ve been, go back and enjoy some waffle fries and gravy for me!!
