Treat Your Family to Dinner Out at Ruth’s Chris This Holiday Season

Spending time with loved ones and eating good food are two of the best things about the holidays. Fortunately, we’re here to help you do both this holiday season at Ruth’s Chris Steak House! When you bring your family to one of our restaurants for a festive dinner of top-quality steaks and seafood, they’ll fondly look back on the evening for years to come.

Our restaurants are all open to serve you and yours every day during the winter holiday season, including Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve, and New Year’s Day. That means you can eat, drink, and be merry with us anytime!

Read on to see why Ruth’s Chris is the perfect place to take your family out for dinner during the holidays!

Savor Sizzling Steaks and Succulent Seafood

Such an extraordinary time of year calls for the best of the best, and there’s no better place to celebrate the holidays than Ruth’s Chris.

Steak: The Perfect Holiday Dinner

You can’t go wrong ordering steak for dinner during the holiday season. Every member of the family will find their preferred cut or chop on our menu, from the tenderest Filet to the juiciest Ribeye. Regardless of what you choose, all our steaks arrive seasoned to perfection and sizzling in butter on 500° plates. Talk about a decadent treat!

Seafood for Your Holiday Dinner Out

If not everyone in the family is a steak lover, don’t worry; we have something they’re sure to enjoy at Ruth’s Chris.

Maybe one of our seafood dishes will get their mouth-watering, like our fresh Maine Lobster (available only for dine-in guests) or pan-roasted Chilean Sea Bass finished in citrus-coconut butter and served over a sweet potato and pineapple hash.

One of our most popular dinner options is the Salmon Fillet broiled with lemon, parsley and butter. It’s also available on our Classics Prix Fixe Menu, where you can select a starter, entree and personal side to create your very own Ruth’s Chris meal, starting at $49.95 per person.

Sides Make the Meal!

In any event, a holiday season meal isn’t complete without Signature Sides! When treating your family to dinner out at Ruth’s Chris, be sure to have them try our Sweet Potato Casserole with a pecan crust, Mashed Potatoes with hints of roasted garlic, or Ruth’s favorite Creamed Spinach, just to name a few crowd-pleasers. Portions are ample, so order a few to share with the table.

Raise a Glass to the Holiday Season

During a special dinner with family, someone will likely want to propose a toast to the reason for the season, and we have a bountiful collection of wines, beers, and cocktails available at Ruth’s Chris. Our wine list alone boasts hundreds of labels handpicked from around the world; you’ll have to come back again and again to try each one.

Of course, we’ve also curated a list of handcrafted, vintage-inspired cocktails for your merriment. One we always recommend this time of year for its festive flavor: Ruth’s Aviation. It features Aviation American Gin, Luxardo, creme do violette and lemon sour.

Whatever you’re drinking, though, nothing beats making memories with your loved ones!

Don’t Forget Dessert

Going all out is a must when you take your family out to dinner at Ruth’s Chris, which means you need to end the evening on a sweet note. You can’t go wrong with our Chocolate Sin Cake blended with espresso, our Warm Apple Crumb Tart served with vanilla ice cream, or our New Orleans-style Bread Pudding with Whiskey Sauce. No matter what you order, your family will appreciate the sweet treat, and there’s no better time to indulge in dessert than a holiday meal out with family.

But there’s more to Thanksgiving Day than just the food. If you’re a holiday hosting novice or just want some more ideas, make sure you also check out our tips below to help you prepare for Thanksgiving at home!

Order Thanksgiving Dinner from Ruth’s Chris

It’s not Thanksgiving without turkey and all the fixings — but preparing all that food is quite an undertaking. That’s where Ruth’s Chris comes in.

When you order our Thanksgiving Day meal package, designed to serve four adults, you will get your choice of salad, roasted turkey (half breast portion), homemade gravy, traditional cranberry relish, cornbread-herb stuffing and your choice of two family-style sides.

Sides include Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Sweet Potato Casserole, Green Beans with Roasted Garlic, or Creamed Spinach. You can also order any of our Sides to Go instead of the full package if you already have the turkey and traditional accompaniments covered.

All you need to do is pick it up, reheat it (we’ll provide the instructions), and relax. And if you want to pretend you cooked the food yourself, don’t worry—we won’t tell.

Finally, Thanksgiving calls for an autumnal dessert, but pumpkin pie is so last year. Instead, our meal package includes our pumpkin cheesecake to help you end your meal on a sweet note.

Stock up on Beverages

While the food may be the main event on Thanksgiving, you can’t forget about drinks! At select Ruth’s Chris locations, you can order wine to-go. In particular, check out our Perfect Pairing: Tribute by Benziger. This Bordeaux-inspired, fruit-forward Cabernet Sauvignon will complement that turkey and cranberry relish like a match made in heaven. Grab a few bottles when you pick up your feast!

Of course, not everyone will want to drink or even be of age, so make sure you also have non-alcoholic options available. Consider preparing spiced apple cider in a large slow-cooker, for instance. That way, everyone can partake in the festivities!

Plan Activities Everyone Can Enjoy

Because you ordered your Thanksgiving dinner from Ruth’s Chris, you’ll get to spend way more time with your loved ones instead of laboring in the kitchen. Besides mingling, what will you and all your guests do during this time?

You can’t go wrong with watching the Thanksgiving Day Parade or the day’s football games, but for the kids, you might want to browse turkey-related crafts on Pinterest or bring out some board games for family fun.

And instead of falling asleep on the couch after all that turkey, a brisk walk outside should keep your energy and metabolism up. There’s nothing like stepping on some delightfully crunchy leaves on the perfect fall day!

Create Thanksgiving Ambiance with Decorations

Get everyone into the holiday spirit by adorning your home with fall decorations. An autumn-colored tablecloth and cornucopia centerpiece can easily transform your table for Thanksgiving. Other touches like pumpkins and gourds, fall wreaths, and seasonal bouquets will make your home feel extra festive.

Order a Thanksgiving Meal To-Go from Ruth’s Chris

Ready to start preparing for the best Thanksgiving at home? Place your Thanksgiving Day order online and pick up your meal at a Ruth’s Chris restaurant near you! All Thanksgiving Day pre-orders must be placed online by Friday, November 19th, 2021, at 6 p.m.

Celebrate Fall with Steak and Wine Pairings From Ruth’s Chris

As the temperature drops, you’re likely craving meals that will keep you warm and cozy — like a sizzling steak! And you know what goes perfectly with steak? Wine, of course. At Ruth’s Chris Steak House, you can celebrate the fall season by pairing your favorite steak with one of the selections on our award-winning wine list. We’ve handpicked labels from around the world for your enjoyment, and each one is ready to be enjoyed with your meal at Ruth’s Chris.

Reserve a table at your nearest Ruth’s Chris Steak House restaurant or continue reading to learn more about the best steak and wine pairings for the fall season.

Choose Your Favorite Steak Cut

First, you need to select your preferred cut of meat. Fortunately, any steak-lover should have no trouble finding their favorite on our Dinner Menu. Some of our most popular offerings include:

  • Filet: 11 ounces (petite: eight ounces) of our most tender, lean Midwestern beef.
  • Ribeye: 16 ounces (petite: 12 ounces) of prime beef, well-marbled for peak flavor and deliciously juicy.
  • Cowboy Ribeye: 22 ounces of bone-in prime beef with all of the flavor of our boneless ribeye.
  • New York Strip: 16 ounces of full-flavored prime beef with a slightly firmer texture than a ribeye.
  • Porterhouse for Two: 40 ounces of prime beef with the rich flavor of a strip and the tenderness of a filet.

No matter which cut of meat you decide to order, your steak will arrive well-marbled, seasoned to perfection, and sizzling in butter and parsley on a 500° plate. Talk about decadence!

Full-Bodied Cabernet Sauvignon

In terms of steak and wine pairings, you can’t go wrong with a robust Cabernet Sauvignon, also known as steak’s best friend. That’s why you’ll find a variety of Cabernet Sauvignon options on the wine list at every Ruth’s Chris restaurant.

This varietal’s high concentration of tannins will help cut through a particularly juicy, fatty steak such as a ribeye or New York Strip. Plus, the Cabernet’s full body helps it stand up to the steak’s texture, and its dark fruit flavors complement the meatiness like a match made in heaven. What more could you possibly want in a steak and wine pairing?

Fruity Pinot Noir

If you’re in the mood for a leaner, more tender cut of meat like a filet, we recommend a Pinot Noir, a much lighter varietal than the Cabernet. Pinot Noir brings pleasant flavors of red fruit and subtle oaky notes to the table. As a result, these great wines complement the gentle taste of the filet without overpowering it.

All of that said, if you decide to upgrade your steak with one of our Entree Complements, like a blue cheese crust or hollandaise sauce, you might want to choose a heavier, smokier Pinot Noir. Your server can guide you in the right direction – just ask!

Other Red Wine Suggestions

In general, ordering a red wine with steak should serve you well, even if it’s not a Cabernet Sauvignon or Pinot Noir. That’s why we have a number of other red wines available by the glass and bottle.

For instance, pair a juicy ribeye with a spicy Zinfandel. You can also try a Merlot, Malbec, or Shiraz. Any of these dry reds will pair with a filet just fine.

And guess what? French Fries aren’t just for fast food joints anymore! We serve ours Julienne-style, cut fresh and fried to order. On the other hand, you’re missing out if you don’t order the Potatoes Au Gratin, Idaho potatoes baked in our signature three-cheese sauce.

A Variety of Veggies

At Ruth’s Chris, we certainly don’t have a shortage of greens on our Dinner Menu. If you want to keep it simple, go with our Fresh Steamed Broccoli, but for a little more oomph, order our Grilled Asparagus topped with creamy hollandaise sauce. You could also get the Roasted Brussels Sprouts; we make these savory nuggets even better with crispy bacon and our sweet honey butter. Plus, we’d be totally remiss if we didn’t mention our famous Creamed Spinach. With a rich texture and a hint of Cajun seasonings, this Ruth’s favorite keeps diners coming back for more.

Mac & Cheese and More

No self-respecting steakhouse leaves this timeless classic off the menu. We make our Steak House Mac & Cheese with three cheeses at Ruth’s Chris, and we finish it off with a zesty parmesan crust. Want to add even more decadence to your mac? Consider our Lobster Mac & Cheese, accented with succulent lobster meat.

Creative Ways to Cook Steak at Home

As a steak lover, you likely have already mastered the art of grilling. And if you’re like many people, you’re looking for a new way to prepare your favorite cuts. At Ruth’s Chris Steak House, we know all about innovative steak-cooking methods, and our culinary team is sharing some of their favorite tips for cooking at home in the guide below.

In a Cast-Iron Skillet

You shouldn’t need to wait for perfect grilling weather to enjoy a juicy steak? Cook a picture perfect steak inside using a cast-iron skillet. This type of pan holds heat better than others, helping your steak cook evenly with just the right amount of browning. For best results, use a boneless steak like a ribeye or New York strip.

To begin, heat vegetable oil in the skillet. Meanwhile, gently dry both sides of the steak with a paper towel for a crispier crust and season with salt and pepper. After the oil gets hot, place the steak in the skillet. You’ll be tempted to flip it as soon as it starts smelling good, but let the first side really develop that seared flavor before flipping and browning the other side of the steak. To amp up the flavor of your favorite cut, reduce the heat and add butter, garlic, and thyme to the pan, basting the steak until it achieves your desired doneness. Then transfer it to a plate and let it briefly rest before enjoying that first bite.

Sous Vide

Compared to cooking steak on the stove, the sous vide process takes much longer—often hours—but chefs have long lauded this French cooking method for its preciseness and home cooks love the hands off approach to the perfectly cooked steak.

Meaning “under vacuum” in English, sous vide involves placing meat in an airtight plastic pouch and submerging it in a temperature-controlled water bath. Using an immersion circulator to cook a steak sous-vide will result in an impeccably even cook and maximum juiciness.

However, the sous-vide process alone won’t give you the crispiness you’re looking for; you’ll also need to sear the steak, preferably in a cast-iron pan. While some people prefer to sear their steak before submerging it in the sous vide, searing afterward will give you that tasty crunch you love.

Pro tip: Definitely season your steak with salt and pepper before it goes in the sous vide, but realize that the long cook time will allow the steak to really absorb those flavors. It’s recommended to partially season the steak before sous vide and then finish seasoning it before you finish your steak in the pan.

Using a Smoker

If you really want to put a twist on your typical steak, consider smoking it. Wood smoke completely transforms the flavor of beef; that’s what makes Texas barbecue so good! If you want to employ this method, though, keep in mind that smaller cuts cook fast, leaving little time for the smoke to seep into the meat. Therefore, we only recommend smoking for larger cuts of steak like a porterhouse, T-bone, or extra-thick ribeye—basically anything over 1.5 pounds.

Before placing your steak in the smoker, consider marinating your steak to keep it from drying out during the long smoking process. Now think about what flavor the wood chips are going to add to the steak. Choose a medium wood like apple or hickory, which will provide a mixture of sweetness and smokiness.

When you’re ready for cooking, set the smoker to approximately 230°F, place the steak inside, and close the lid so that the smoke stays contained. For every 1.5 pounds of beef, let the steak smoke for about an hour.
