"Ever wondered why the steak you make at home never seems to taste as good as your favorite cut from Texas Roadhouse? Providing that you know how to cook a steak to your preferred doneness, that lack of flavor in your homemade steaks may be because of the fact that your seasoning blend isn't powerful enough. Texas Roadhouse uses an iconic steak seasoning blend on its steaks that gives them that salty complexity that makes you want to go in for another bite,"
"Sure, a good steak is nice and juicy, but there's more to it than that. The best steak out there has a richness and complexity that can only come from the aging process. You may not be able to find aged steaks everywhere ( like at the grocery store), but when you taste one, you'll know the difference. Luckily, Texas Roadhouse does age its steak, which is part of the reason it tastes so good, regardless of what cut you decide to get."
Texas Roadhouse applies a distinctive steak seasoning blend that adds salty complexity and savory notes; common copycat recipes list smoked paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and brown sugar among other spices. Home-cooked steaks often lack that concentrated seasoning punch even when cooked to preferred doneness. The steaks are aged to deepen flavor and tenderize the meat; tenderloin is aged about 14 days while most other cuts are aged roughly 22 to 25 days. Aging increases richness and complexity before seasoning, and the combination of aging and the signature rub produces the chain's characteristic steak profile.
