[[{“value”:”A great steakhouse is about more than the steak. The right side dishes can round out the plate, and creamed corn brings a sweet, rich contrast to a savory cut of beef. But some steakhouses do this classic side better than others. To highlight the best spots, Eat This, Not That! asked Steve Ingber, executive chef & owner, MileHighCook, for his top picks. Here are four he recommends ordering with your next steak.
Del Frisco’s Double Eagle
For a creamed corn with a little more personality, Chef Steve recommends Del Frisco’s Double Eagle. Its combination of sweet corn, richness, and a touch of heat makes it a memorable companion to a grilled steak. “Del Frisco’s creamed corn is the most distinctive,” he says. “The sweet corn against all that richness with a little heat to keep it interesting. Next to a charred ribeye, it’s the side people are still talking about on the way home.”
Mastro’s
Cream corn can feel extra indulgent when paired with a good steak, and that’s the case for Mastro’s. Chef Steve says it’s the richest and a must-try. “Mastro’s doesn’t hold back on cream or butter, and the corn still tastes like corn, which is the trick,” he explains. “It’s indulgent in the way a steakhouse side should be.”
The Capital Grille
For a more refined take on creamed corn, Chef Steve recommends The Capital Grille because the chain shows “restraint.” He explains, “The sauce is tight instead of soupy, and the corn keeps some bite. It reads like a composed side dish, not a scoop from a hotel pan.”
Outback Steakhouse
For a creamier, more savory take, Chef Steve recommends Outback Steakhouse. Its Parmesan-forward creamed corn adds a salty, cheesy richness that makes the sweet corn feel a little more indulgent.
“For a cheesy twist that pairs naturally with steak,” Chef Steve says Outback House is unbeatable. “Outback’s creamed corn is exactly what you want next to a sizzling, butter-basted steak,” he says. “Sweet, rich, and familiar. Some pairings are traditions for a reason.”
