What Side is your "Go To" Side with Steak?

[Troutman]

I'll just let the camera tell you what we choose to serve with steak;

Roasted rosemary little potatoes and green beans almondine...




Sauteed mushrooms in a wine sauce accompanied by some risotto .....



Something simple like corn-on-the-cob or Mexican style elote corn .....



Loaded baked potato or Hasselback potatoes are great ways to accompany steak ....





Of course any roasted veggies like asparagus, broccoli, even cauliflower come out great. Good luck with your dinner !!!

[Panhead John]

That looks terrible Steve! Why would you even post all that?…..🙄🥸

[bep35]

If my presentation looked like that I would take pictures! Thanks!

[Troutman]

I know Panhead John my plating, photographic and cooking skills are lacking and need serious upgrade. What’s a poor boy to do?

[JoeSousa]

Pretty much any sort of potato dish is fine by me. Baked potato, roasted red potatoes, cheesy potatoes, frozen tater tots... pretty much anything with potatoes.

I also love corn with my steaks. Frozen niblets are just fine with me but some good, fresh corn on the cob is hard to beat.

[ecowper]

Cheesy potato casserole with a rib roast is the bomb!

[luvthemstillers]

Sautéed mushrooms with Worcestershire sauce and potato bundles, which involve par-boiled potatoes that are skinned and put in foil bundles with sautéed onions, butter, and seasoned salt or BBQ rub. The bundles go on the grill or in the oven just long enough to marry everything together, about15-20 minutes.

We really like the loaded baked potato salad linked below. However, it is a bit dry, so I'd be prepared to add just a little more mayo if it seems dry to you.

This recipe starts about 9 min in.

Garlic Mashed potatoes and a Caesar salad with Kenji's homemade Caesar dressing. In the summer I might sub the mashed with a warm German potato salad.

[Panhead John]

Ooh, German potato salad sounds good!

[Starsky]

A good bourbon

[Finster]

^^^^ very thought leaderish 👍

[Troutman]

Now THAT was what I was waiting to hear 👆👆

[ecowper]

I personally am happy with a steak and bourbon

[DavidNorcross]

Baked potato. When I know CaptainMike is stopping by, I will add some Brussel sprouts

[Panhead John]

He loves his Brussels!

[ecowper]

artichokes and drawn butter! Hashbrowns! Grilled asparagus! Green salad! :-)

As far as appetizers go .... Tequila shrimp, bacon wrapped figs, pig candy, charcuterie plates, vegetable plates are all favorites here

[Troutman]

Chokes and drawn butter get my vote 👍

[ecowper]

Troutman Steve I love hashbrowns with my steak ….. one of my all time favorite sides

[58limited]

I like oven roasted potatoes; roasted green beans with toasted chopped hazelnuts, lemon zest, and Parmesan sprinkled on top; mushroom risotto is nice with a steak too. If you are serving kids then go for Mac 'n Cheese or french fries.

And, of course, a pot of beans goes with anything.

For a real treat (and something different) check out my Hopalong Hominy recipe:

lobster or ribs! 😁😜🤪🙌

This is gonna seem weird compared to all the delicious tried and trues above, but my new favorite starch side for beef is this risotto-style farro. It eats like a beefy risotto but is less than half the work, fantastic:

As for green stuff, it is spring so i'd go with steamed or grilled asparagi or this excellent brussels sprout recipe (trust them on the olive oil thing): https://www.splendidtable.org/story/...ecorino-romano

[lumbrjk]

I really like lobster tail as a side!

[Bob K]

yeah that's hard to beat!

[Troutman]

Dang !!!

[Troutman]

Geese can you imagine the buffet that could be assembled with all of the above? Glad I don’t have to decide

[Spinaker]

Cast iron sprouts or grilled asparagus. 🫰🏻

[ecowper]

Cook your sprouts in carbon steel one time

[hoovarmin]

Caesar and Mashed here.

[Dewesq55]

Great minds!
