    Ruth’s Chris Filet Mignon - Choice or Prime?

    I had the opportunity to pick up a case of filets that were originally packed for Ruth’s Chris. I was surprised to find out they were choice, not prime.

    I consider Ruth’s Chris to be over priced and overrated, but I didn’t expect this.

      Yeah, unless it is specially identifies as USDA Prime on the menu, it’s likely USDA Choice for Ruth Chris. I learned to start reading menus because of the Pit.

        I don't know about Ruth's Chris, but i have eaten at many restaurants that use tenderizers in their meats to try to make up for quality. How do i know? I get some very bad reactions to those chemicals.

          I've never been there but I've heard mixed reviews, most rave. Makes sense though, a filet is so tender that using Choice might make them a couple extra bucks each since with a filet it really doesn't matter, not much fat and marbling to shake a stick at.

            I also picked up some prime T-bones that were headed for Ruth’s Chris. I paid eight bucks a pound. I don’t think that’s too bad.

            That's my view. Never buy Prime filets, unless I can pick them up in the manager's special section.

            Yeah, I'd say $8/lb for Prime t-bones is a good deal! BBQandLove
