Best steak dinners I ever had were in the Old Corral in Centennial, Wyo. I had lunch there on two occasions: in August, 1961 and in September, 1987.
If you are ever in the area, this is a great steakhouse...it is out in the country East of El Paso but very worth the drive.

Nice read, just in time for the Wife’s birthday. As usual we will go to a Steakhouse dating back to the 50’s in So Cal. “The Magic Lamp” Red leather Booths, dark wood wall panels. Time has stood still. Very good old fashioned food....Prime Rib, Steaks, INCREDIBLE Jumbo Shrimp stuffed with real crab rapped in Bacon, Creamed Spinach and so on.
Beefsteaks still take place in North Jersey. Usually in VFW halls, Elks clubs, and the like.
For a good history, read Joseph Mitchell's classic "All You Can Hold for Five Bucks." Now, more like Fifty!
Del Frisco’s Double Eagle in Philly.
Get the bone-in filet.
Mine is always medium rare.
I’ve heard from the old folks that back in the day, a good steak house hung their beef until it had grown an inch of mold. I know of deer hunters who do this with their venison, are there any places that hang their beef like this? I’d love to try it.
7 parts kosher sea salt
1 part black pepper
1 part onion powder
Sprinkle over both sides of steak(ribeye)
Leave out until room temp (about an hour) and then grill on high heat
Medium works for me.
Haven’t used steak sauce since I’ve been using this recipe..
Delicious!
Creamed Spinach?
At a steakhouse? Never heard of such a thing in all my life. It’s possible, I guess.
Aged Ribeye medium rare paired with 12 year old Redbreast is to die for.
