🇦🇺 Queensland Road Trip | Rockhampton’s STONEGRILL Beef Adventure!
Melbourne → Road Trip Mode 🚗 Pit Stop in Beef Capital: After island hopping, we rolled into Rockhampton—Australia’s Beef Capital! 🐄✨ Must-try? Their legendary STONEGRILL beef! 🍽️ Stonegrill Experience: 📍 Google’s 4.6-rated spot (blue building with a bar + arcade + pool tables + hotel!). 🔥 How it works: A 400°C volcanic rock arrives at your table. DIY grill your raw beef/pork/chicken (want medium-rare? You’re the boss!). ⚠️ Fair warning: The raw meat smell hits hard (hot weather = extra aroma), but it’s worth it! ⭐ Taste verdict: 3/5—fun to try, but not life-changing. 📸 Quirky Roadside Attractions: 🦀 The Big Crab & 🐂 The Big Bull (classic Aussie "Big Things"!) 🧜♀️ Dreamtime Cultural Centre’s Mermaid (honoring Indigenous art). 🌄 Mount Archer Lookout at sunset—panoramic views + FREE overnight parking for roadtrippers (we joined other campers under the stars! 🌌). 📌 Pro Tips: ✔ Stonegrill novelty > gourmet—go for the experience! ✔ Big Crab/Bull = 10/10 silliness (great for IG!). ✔ Camp at Mount Archer—wake up to sunrise over the town! ☀️ #BeefCapital 🥩 #StonegrillAdventure 🔥 #QueenslandRoadTrip 🚐 #BigThingsOfAustralia 🦘 #MountArcherViews 🌄 #VanLifeAus 🏕️ #FoodieFailsButFun 😆
