I hadn't thought about this until recently when I was pouring butter over a steak I cooked and it ran under the asparagus & stuff. Doesn't Ruths Chris provide your steak on a little specialty plate? Its been awhile since Ive been there.

I wouldn't know. Someone once gave me a $50 gift card to Ruth's Chris and I was so personally offended that I've never gone back.

Ruth's serves all steaks alone on their own plate (yes I see the shrimp ). The sides come in their own dish.

Some restaurants that run their steaks under a salamander will send them out on a metal plate. Chris' does not.

Unless you are using a broiler to cook it and don't want to transfer, I see know reason to serve on anything other than normal plates. Whether you serve the steak on a separate plate from the sides depends on your own personal level of neuroticism.

It's sort of an old school, but not necessarily higher end, deal. I know, for example, Charlie's Steakhouse still serves them on the metal plates.

I think Bonanza used to as well.

I still sort of dig it, though.

A couple years ago, you would have used it. Now it's like, Ruth's Chris? Meh.

I figured you'd want some kinda plate you can control the temp with your phone.

I serve on either Fiestaware plates, or cast iron fajita pans.

I get them hot in a 350F oven, grill, or the top of my salamander. I drop about a teaspoon of ghee and let that get hot. When you transfer the steak from your grill, skillet, or broiler it sizzles all the way to the table.

Ghee, not butter. Butter will burn.

Is the first bite of steak rare and last bite well done?

Usually the wife just throws it over the pen fence and I catch it in the air. Three chomps and that puppy is nothing more than a memory.
