many restaurants all over the country have jumped on the celebration band
wagon,” said John Ponczoch, Senior Vice President, Restaurant Operations.
“Petro and the Iron Skillet were born in El Paso, Texas, in 1975, and we
want to honor our Texas heritage by serving the very best hand-cut, hand-breaded
chicken fried steak so folks across America have the opportunity to taste
this Texas tradition.”
