Cool Climate Wines to Enjoy at Ruth’s Chris

Climate plays a major role in determining how a wine will taste. Some grapes grow better in cool climates than others, such as Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Pinot Noir—and we serve them all at Ruth’s Chris Steak House. If you enjoy tart, delicate flavors, then you’ll love the cool climate wines on our award-winning wine list.

Read below to learn more about some of our favorite cool climate wines and stop in today at a Ruth’s Chris near you to enjoy a glass (or bottle) tonight!

Chardonnay

Chardonnay may not be the first wine that comes to mind when you think “cool climate,” since this ubiquitous grape can grow almost anywhere, but it exhibits elegant characteristics when grown in milder temperatures.

While warm climate Chardonnays are typically more full-bodied and full of ripe tropical fruit flavors, this wine also boasts bright acidity and notes of citrus, apple, or even stone fruits when grown in cooler regions like Burgundy, Oregon, southern Australia, or Chile. Cool climate Chardonnay is also lighter bodied with a refreshing dose of minerality.

A cool climate Chardonnay serves as a delightful aperitif on its own, but it also stands up to creamy dishes like our Lobster Mac & Cheese.

Sauvignon Blanc

Grown throughout northern France and New Zealand—especially in the famed Marlborough region—Sauvignon Blanc thrives in brisk climates that help preserve its hallmark qualities like high acidity, minerality, and dryness.

Traditionally, Sauvignon Blanc displays subtle fruit notes as well as floral and vegetable flavors. When you take in the aromas of this light-to-medium-bodied wine, you might smell fresh-cut grass or a summer rain, but when you take a sip, expect to taste green apple, passionfruit, or white peach, ending in a crisp finish.

Like many cool climate wines, Sauvignon Blanc pairs very well with seafood, so it would make a fine complement to our Chilled Seafood Tower of Maine lobster, Alaskan king crab legs, jumbo shrimp, and colossal lump crabmeat.

Pinot Noir

Because Pinot Noir ripens early, temperate climates help the grape stay on the vine longer so that it can develop more complex flavors and aromas than it would in the heat. You’ll find Pinot Noir growing in coastal zones around the world such as New Zealand’s Otago region, the hills of California’s Monterey district, and Chile’s Casablanca region.

Pinot Noir is usually fruit-forward, with flavors of cherries, berries, and red currants, but you’ll also notice some earthy notes such as mushroom and soil.

Since Pinot Noir is more light-bodied with silkier tannins than other “bigger” reds, it enjoys versatility as a food wine. You can pair it with virtually anything, from our Salmon Fillet to our Stuffed Chicken Breast—even a lean cut of steak like our Petite Filet.

Happy Hour Is Back at Ruth’s Chris Steak House

At Ruth’s Chris, our bar and lounge areas are open once again from 4-6:30 p.m. daily for you to safely savor the savings. During Ruth’s Hour, you can enjoy promotionally priced bar bites and signature dishes paired with your favorite handcrafted cocktail, wine, or beer.

Best Champagne Pairings for Your Ruth’s Chris Steak

Steak with red wine is a no-brainer, but what about steak and champagne? Honestly, people don’t enjoy this luxurious food and drink combo nearly as often as they should. Because champagne tends to pair well with foods high in fat and salt, there’s no reason you shouldn’t enjoy some bubbles alongside your favorite chop.

But don’t just take our word for it; dine with us at Ruth’s Chris Steak House to experience the magic of champagne and steak for yourself. Reserve a table at your nearest Ruth’s Chris Steak House restaurant or read on to discover how to enjoy steak and champagne together the next time you visit us.

Do Champagne and Steak Even Go Together?

The short answer is: Yes!

Often viewed as an aperitif, champagne actually holds its own as a versatile food wine. Champagne exhibits minerality, a quality that adds depth to savory and meaty flavors such as those found in steak. Plus, its light taste and effervescence will elevate your meal without masking the steak’s rich and meaty flavors.

Most importantly, champagne brings a vibrant acidity that will help cleanse your palate in between bites of juicy steak. When you eat a well marbled steak it’s great to have something to cleanse your palate between bites – the acid in champagne does just that!

What Steak Should You Eat with Champagne?

While champagne will complement any Ruth’s Chris steak, a more marbled cut such as a Ribeye or New York Strip pairs perfectly with a bottle of brut bubbles. To maximize the pairing, order your steak medium-rare so that the juices from your favorite cut can meld with each sip of champagne.

Popular Champagne Offerings at Ruth’s Chris

Ruth’s Chris offers several sparkling wine selections at our restaurants, but if you want to sip your bubbly alongside a steak, you should consider the following options. Each champagne highlighted has spent more time in cellars, developing stronger flavors and a fuller body to help it stand up to the richness of steak.

Veuve Clicquot “Yellow Label”

As the signature wine of Veuve Clicquot, the Yellow Label showcases the best of what champagne has to offer. The dominant presence of Pinot Noir compared to Chardonnay and Meunier gives this champagne the strength it needs to take on a steak. However, the Yellow Label also displays silkiness, which keeps this bold champagne from feeling too heavy.

Moët & Chandon “Impérial”

Moët & Chandon’s most iconic libation combines the fuller body of Pinot Noir, the suppleness of Pinot Meunier, and the refinement of Chardonnay for a champagne that pairs beautifully with beef. Elegant maturity and a seductive palate of toasty notes like brioche will enhance the steak’s flavor profile.

Dom Pérignon Vintage

After a whopping eight years in the cellars, the one and only Dom Pérignon champagne boasts an assertive presence. Aromatic, firm, and bursting with notes of spices and pepper, this wine can handle any steak with grace.

Thanksgiving To-Go: How to Enjoy Thanksgiving at Home

Even if you can’t travel to be with loved ones this year, that doesn’t mean Thanksgiving is canceled. Whether you’re celebrating with your immediate family or close friends and colleagues, you can still give thanks, wear cozy sweaters, and eat way too much turkey and stuffing.

If you don’t want to expend much effort cooking a huge feast for just a few, though, Ruth’s Chris Steak House can help. Our complete Thanksgiving Turkey Dinner To-Go (available for as few as four adults) is the perfect solution for enjoying a holiday meal without the hassle. In addition to placing your Thanksgiving carry-out order on time — all orders must be placed online and paid in full by Friday, November 19th at 6 p.m. – here are some other tips for making the most of a low-key Turkey Day.

Order Thanksgiving Dinner from Ruth’s Chris

A special meal is the ultimate hallmark of Thanksgiving, and Ruth’s Chris is here to help you savor one this year. When you order our Thanksgiving dinner for four, all you have to do is pick it up, reheat (we’ll provide instructions), and relax. With one bite of our Roasted Turkey and homemade gravy, you’ll feel like you’re back at Grandma’s house for the holidays.

Our Thanksgiving to-go dinner meal includes your choice of salad (Caesar or Steak House Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette), roasted turkey (half breast portion), homemade gravy, traditional cranberry relish, sausage-herb stuffing and your choice of two family-style sides. Choose from Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Creamed Spinach, Sweet Potato Casserole or Green Beans with Roasted Garlic.

But if you don’t want to forsake your mother’s impeccable turkey preparation, you can order any of our Sides to Go instead of the full package to add to your meal at home.

Finally, no Thanksgiving is complete without an autumn dessert. That’s why we’ve created a pumpkin cheesecake as the finale for our to-go meal, so you can end your evening on a sweet note. Our Thanksgiving meal for four comes with four individual pumpkin cheesecakes.

Decorate for Yourself

Get into the holiday spirit by adorning your home with fall decorations, regardless of whether or not anyone else will see it. An autumn-themed tablecloth and cornucopia centerpiece can easily transform your table for Thanksgiving. Other touches like fall wreaths, pumpkins and gourds, and seasonal bouquets will make you feel extra festive. Add even more ambiance by lighting a candle in a classic fall scent like apple cinnamon or pumpkin spice.

Practice as Many Traditions as Possible—and Start New Ones

Although the crowds will be absent, the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and football games will go on. If you normally tune in, watching will remind you that it’s a special day. And since you ordered your Thanksgiving dinner from Ruth’s Chris instead of cooking it yourself, you’ll have tons of free time to spend creating new traditions. Take a walk outside and step on some delightfully crunchy leaves, make turkey-related crafts with the kids, or play a board game together. When Thanksgiving returns to normal over the next couple years, you may find that some of these new traditions stick with you!

Connect with People You’re Thankful for

It’s is the reason for the season, right? By now, you’re likely a pro at getting everyone together over Zoom. Make sure you also take a moment to call or text your older relatives who might not have access to a webcam. The important thing is that you’re connecting with family—or your chosen family—however possible.

How to Throw an Outdoor Thanksgiving Celebration

While turkey and pumpkin pie haven’t been canceled, Thanksgiving celebrations may look a little different this year. If you want to avoid the risks associated with indoor gatherings, our Southern weather may be warm enough for you to host the festivities outside – especially if you have a propane heater or firepit! All you need is some outdoor furniture, decorations, a few blankets (in case it gets chilly) and delicious food and drinks (we suggest red wine and hot toddies to help warm you from the inside).

However, unless you want to spend most of the day leading up to your festivities in the kitchen, you should let someone else handle the cooking—enter Ruth’s Chris Steak House. Our full Thanksgiving Turkey Dinner is the perfect solution for providing a hassle-free holiday feast. To bring Ruth’s Chris to your Thanksgiving table, place your order online by Tuesday, November 24 at 12 noon!

Order a Thanksgiving Feast from Ruth’s Chris

What would Thanksgiving be without the feast? Leave it all to Ruth’s Chris so that you can focus on enjoying the holiday with your loved ones. We may be a steakhouse, but one look at our Roasted Turkey will get everyone’s mouths watering. Served with homemade gravy, sausage and herb stuffing, and cranberry relish, this turkey breast will the star of your spread.

Of course, you can’t forget about those classic Thanksgiving sides! Each meal package includes your choice of 2 family-style sides: Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Green Beans with Roasted Garlic, Creamed Spinach, and Sweet Potato Casserole. Finally, “Ruthsgiving” ends on a sweet note with our seasonal pumpkin cheesecake.

All of our Thanksgiving dishes come with quick and easy reheating instructions, so you can have the complete spread on the table in no time. Order today!

More Outdoor Thanksgiving Party Tips

Get ready to take notes! Here are just a few tips for helping you throw the perfect outdoor Thanksgiving celebration in 2020:

Prepare Your Patio

Consider three things when arranging your outdoor setup: social distancing, temperature, and possible inclement weather. Instead of one long table, obtain a set of lightweight card tables and folding chairs, and spread them out as best as you can to keep mealtime safe. Outdoor heaters, washable throw blankets, and a fire pit are all viable options for keeping your guests comfortable into the evening. And if the skies look cloudy, invest in a lightweight popup canopy with plenty of air flow so that Thanksgiving can go on rain or shine.

Deck the Halls for Fall

Fall-themed tablecloths, copious pumpkins and gourds, and cornucopia centerpieces can transform your backyard into a Thanksgiving haven. Strings of twinkle lights and battery-operated lanterns will add ambiance as well as visibility if you’re dining at night.

Lift Everyone’s Spirits with Warm Drinks

We’ve covered the food, but no Thanksgiving is complete without raising your glass to give thanks! Serve hot drinks like mulled wine or cider, hot chocolate, and whiskey-based cocktails to keep everyone extra toasty.

Bring the Fun

To give the kids (and adults!) something to do, look for lawn games that can be played six feet apart such as cornhole and croquet. And if no Thanksgiving is complete without watching your favorite football team or your annual screening of Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, a video projector allows you to continue those traditions outdoors.

Breakfast Ideas for Your Ruth’s Chris Steak Leftovers

After a delicious meal at Ruth’s Chris Steak House, you could reheat your leftovers for lunch tomorrow (assuming you don’t finish everything on your plate at dinnertime), or you could repurpose them into a totally new entrée fit for starting your day. Don’t overlook the potential of steak—as well as our other Ruth’s Chris dishes—to become a great breakfast with a few tweaks. Allow us to show you how!

Just Add Eggs

As the poster child for American breakfast, an egg can turn just about any food item into a morning meal—steak included.

Steak and Eggs:

This classic breakfast pairing is self-explanatory; savor your leftover steak with a couple of eggs prepared however you like them: fried, over-easy, scrambled—the choice is yours!

Steak Eggs Benedict:

Swap the usual Canadian bacon for steak to refresh this longtime brunch favorite. The only other ingredients you need are poached eggs, an English muffin and hollandaise sauce. You can also spread leftover Ruth’s Chris creamed spinach on the English muffin for a Florentine twist.

Note: This recipe works with our Sizzling Crab Cakes, too!

Steak Omelet or Frittata:

Chop your leftover steak into bite-sized pieces, toss them into a skillet with cheese and beaten eggs, and voilà: You have breakfast! You can also add leftover Ruth’s Chris veggies such as broccoli or grilled asparagus. Fold the fillings into the center of the eggs for an omelet or mix them into the eggs for a frittata.

More Ways to Eat Breakfast Steak

Don’t be afraid to get creative when repurposing your leftover Ruth’s Chris steak!

Breakfast Burrito:

For a Mexican take on breakfast steak, cut it up, scramble two eggs with cheese, and wrap all ingredients in a warm tortilla. Popular add-ons include onions, peppers, avocado, tomato, spinach, and even hot sauce for a spicy kick.

Breakfast Casserole:

Also known as a strata, a breakfast casserole usually consists of layered cubed bread, beaten eggs, milk, cheese, and any meat and veggies of your choosing—like chunks of leftover steak. Just bake until set!

Breakfast Hash:

Dice up a potato (bonus if you have leftover Ruth’s Chris potatoes), chop up an onion, and sauté. Then add your leftover steak, cheese, and veggies such as peppers or tomatoes. For an extra-filling meal, top it off with a fried egg.

Breakfast Ideas for Other Ruth’s Chris Leftovers

If you also brought home some seafood or signature sides, they can become breakfast, too.

Shrimp and Grits:

If you enjoyed dishes like our Spicy Shrimp or Barbecued Shrimp, but have some shrimp leftover, whip up some grits to make this creamy Southern staple. Add cheese, garlic, and green onions for even more flavor.

Deluxe Waffle:

Combine leftover Ruth’s Chris pecan-crusted sweet potato casserole into waffle batter; the flavors pair wonderfully with maple syrup! Or, if savory is more your style, fry our Sizzling Crab Cakes in waffle batter for an inventive meal.

Home Fries or Hash Browns:

Complete any meal with this classic breakfast side. All you need is leftover potatoes—baked, mashed, or au gratin. Chopped potatoes will become home fries, and you can make hash browns from mashed potatoes.
