John Daly's Feast for the Senses at Branson Creek Includes Golf, Hefty Steak Sandwich

Spectacular Ozark views from Branson Creek’s patio.

John Daly is ever-present in more ways than one at his Murder Rock Golf Club at Branson Creek, MO. Residents can play on his 18-hole design or feast upon a handsome steak sandwich named after him. Both entities are very Daly-like: big and bold.

That a steak sandwich is the Specialty of the House tells you a little about the relaxed, laid back lifestyle of the communities at Branson Creek. Furthermore, the vast mountain views club patrons enjoy from the restaurant patio provide an appropriate complement to the goliath-sized Daly dish

Steak, Lobster & More

Murder Rock Club, one of two clubs within the Branson Creek community, features championship golf, pro shop and much more. Its restaurant, Glenn’s at Murder Rock, offers classics such as steak and lobster, plus its signature “Daly Special.”

 

Served seven days a week, the Daly is a monster of a sandwich layered with ribeye, provolone and fried red onions and packed into a hoagie roll. If one has room, waffle fries and potato corn chowder are offered as sides.

 

Tina DeLong, Food and Beverage Director at Murder Rock, likens the special to a French Dip or Philly Cheesesteak, and says the ribeye is slow-cooked daily. There is no exact recipe, she says. One can create the masterpiece by piling thinly sliced ribeye on a toasted hoagie roll, then adding provolone cheese and lightly fried onions.

 

Big Portions, Bigger Views

One might wonder which is more impressive: the Daly Special or the view from the restaurant patio. Indeed, the mountains are an awe-inspiring backdrop to any Branson Creek activity, whether it’s tackling the par-71, 18-hole signature course, swimming at the club’s pool or working out at the fitness center—perfect catalysts to a healthy appetite.

 

Along with the Daly name, “Murder Rock” is also more than just a label. With roots in the Civil War, legend has it that Murder Rock was a place where confederate bushwhacker Alfred Bolin and his crew conducted ambushes of unwary Federals.

 

Today, the Murder Rock name remains, but the vibe is a calm, pleasant one. With plentiful amenities, spectacular mountain views, and items such as the Daly Special, Branson Creek and its clubs are worthy of 'Daly' praise.

I've seen this place on my way to the airport. Wondering if it is open to the public or for members only. I would love to bring some of our visitors here.
