Why People Like Ruby Tuesday 6 oz Rib Eye
The 6 oz Rib Eye is juicy, tender, and full of rich, beefy flavor. Because it’s a rib eye cut, it has natural marbling — thin lines of fat that melt as it cooks, keeping it moist and flavorful.
People enjoy it because it’s:
- Flavorful but not too heavy.
- Customizable with sides and sauces.
- Cooked to your preference, from rare to well-done.
It’s an ideal choice for anyone craving steak but looking for a moderate portion.
