The New York Strip at Ruby Tuesday is a thick, juicy steak cut from the short loin of the cow. It’s known for its rich flavor, firm texture, and great balance of tenderness and chew.

Ruby Tuesday grills it over an open flame, seasons it simply with salt, pepper, and butter, and serves it hot with your choice of two sides.

It’s one of the most popular steaks on the menu because it’s flavorful without being too fatty.

Why People Order It

The New York Strip gives you that classic steakhouse taste — bold, meaty, and satisfying.
It has more bite than a filet but still stays juicy.

The char from the grill adds a smoky edge, while the butter gives it a soft, rich finish. It’s perfect for people who want a straightforward, no-nonsense steak that feels like a treat.

Ingredients and Cooking Style

Item	Detail
Cut	New York Strip (boneless)
Weight	About 12 ounces
Cooking Method	Grilled over open flame
Seasoning	Salt, pepper, garlic butter
Sauce	Optional — steak sauce or plain
Doneness	Rare, medium, or well-done
Sides	Choice of two

You can ask for it plain (no butter) if you prefer less fat. Medium or medium-rare is the most common order for this cut because it keeps the center tender.

Flavor and Texture

The New York Strip is all about balance. It’s not as soft as a tenderloin, but it has more flavor because of its fat marbling. When cooked right, you get a golden-brown crust outside and a juicy center inside.

It tastes bold, a little smoky, and buttery from the grill. The strip cut gives a firm bite that steak lovers appreciate.
