Grub has some of the most loaded milkshakes in Texas. Try the "ET Shake," with Reese's Pieces, peanut butter, chocolate, and a peanut butter cookie. And if that sounds extreme, just wait until you hear about the "Kitchen Sink," with pretzels, peanut butter, salt, butterscotch sauce, caramel sauce, chocolate chips, coffee grounds, and potato chips (whew, that was a mouthful!). You can also get most of the shakes spiked with different flavors of vodka.
