My S.O [37M] didn't order what I [28F] wanted and is mad at me

The title is as dumb as it sounds. I'm going to start from the beginning. Please note, I don't usually talk about myself or my relationship, especially to the public.

My boyfriend, [37M] and I [28F] were chatting on the phone earlier and he asked if I wanted to get dinner with his family after he and his brother work on the Z. I said yes. It sounds fun to get out of the house. We are two busy bees and hardly have any social interactions anymore.

I get off work and arrive home around 6:45ish. His bro is not here and they are not working on the car. I asked him where his brother was and he tells me that no one can get a hold of him since he's working on the yard. They work for the railroad. So I sit waiting for anything to happen or any suggestions. He calls his mom and she said they are on their way.

His mother, brother, and sister in law arrive at my house. Assuming that we are leaving soon, I start getting ready. I put in my shoes, check myself in the mirror and look at the garden. Even share my new plants with them. I'm obsessed with plants. Turns out, we are waiting on his other brother and sister in law to come over. I decided to make my dogs food. Chicken and rice because one of my dogs decided to eat the trash and has runny poo. So I am boiling the chicken and rice.

The other family members arrive and my mother in law decided to say, "let's go and get food!". So I tell my S.O. I will meet him at the restaraunt. It is now 8:30 and the dogs food is ready to serve them. Right before serving, I call my boyfriend and ask him to order my son cheese triangles kids meal and order me a side of fries. He said "okay" and we hung up. I get to the restaraunt and see that an order was in. I decided to walk up and purchase a beer and sat back down. The food is delivered to the table. It's only a kids meal.

I'm a fairly skinny women. I'm 5'4 and 132lbs. Haven't eaten since 11:30am. I read over the receipt and see that nothing was ordered for me. I'm now a little bothered at this point questioning whether or not he was listening...

history: my boyfriend has a hard time listening to me. Honestly, last time we came to this restaurant, I was telling him a funny story while he was looking at his phone. He smiled, looked up and me, sees I'm smiling and says, "I'm sorry, I didn't hear what you said." Which upset me. --still does.

Anyway, he then said he asked his mother to order the food since he paid for hers. She obliged. The telephone game happened. My son eats his cheesy triangles and some fries. I eat what he doesn't finish, which isn't much. All the wile, my S.O.'s mother is saying, "it's late. We should go." Not only do I feel rushed out of my house, I now don't get to finish a beer that I literally just ordered. I threw a full beer into the trash. I feel like I should have just stayed home.

My thought is, 1.) He should be thinking of his family and asking me what I wanted rather than me calling him. If that can't happen then 2.) He should have ordered the food himself or corrected the mistake. He didn't bother. I feel neglected and like we are on the back burner.

His argument is that I should have just come with them knowing that we were leaving or just ordered the fries myself and to stop being a baby.

I guess I feel that a person who cares about someone will try to correct an issue. Or try to understand where their S.O. is coming from. I can go on and on about our major issues but am leaving this here.

So now, he and I are both being immature and awaiting the response of the fellow Reddit community to see wtf happened.

Tl;dr boyfriend didn't order what I asked for and is upset with me and blaming me for it.
