Boston Markety says: We start with tender, juicy cuts of Beef Sirloin mixed with a savory mushroom gravy. Pour it over freshly made buttered egg noodles, and you have a delicious steak entree with the Boston Market touch.

Nicole says: Boston Market is all about accurate representation. The lighting in the room where the box picture was taken is a bit softer and has more yellow in it, but this picture does fairly represent the amount and size of the meat, noodles, mushrooms and the little green herb flecks in the gravy and on the noodles.

Actually, there is a tad bit more meat in the meal than what the picture on the box expresses. And it’s not reconstituted meat product. In fact, a couple pieces of beef sirloin are actually marbled. Like steak. And it tastes really good. Crazy.

The gravy is on the watery side, quite salty in taste (my one warning), and features a hint of spiciness. The mushroom slices are each the size of a postage stamp, a tiny bit rubbery but quite moist, and taste mushroom-y. The noodles are soft and thick.

This is a pretty straightforward meal. Meat, noodles, some sauce with a couple veggies pretending to round out your food pyramid desires. It’s also 14 ounces, so a “hearty portion,” according to Boston Market and my standards.

I can’t wait for the next Boston Market sale. Of course, when I say that I will buy a meal again, it means in the far distant future, because I’m always searching out NEW meals to try and am too committed to the mission of warning your taste buds to settle into a comfortable routine of dependably yummy fare.
