    Foolproof & Simple

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    since the first time we made this, this is the recipe we come back to over and over for filet. They are perfect every time...and EASY. We usually just top each steak with a generous amount of crumbled blue cheese, which melts into the meat...easier than a sauce..and so delicious. You can always count on Ina for the simplest recipes that are just insanely tasty.

    Until tonight, I'd never actually licked my plate before. I could drink that sauce. I drizzled it over fries. Soooo good. Make sure you do use Roquefort or other high quality blue cheese. Simple blue cheese crumbles won't cause you to do what I just did to my plate.

    Without doubt the best steak ever

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    My husband and I are both filet lovers. Life is too short to eat cheap meat! This recipe is so easy and so delicious. If you use the proper cut of meat and portion suggested, the amount of salt and pepper is perfect. The sauce is excellent but not necessary - - the steak stands on its own. We use the cast iron grill pan to get the nice grill marks. We never order steak when we go out for dinner because it cannot compare with this one! Thanks, Ina!

    Ruth Chris Steaks at Home!!!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    My husband and I LOVE the steaks from Ruth Chris and these steaks are just like them!! I used ribeyes instead of a filet and it was unbelievable! And the pat of butter is most definitely not optional, I can't believe she put it as so. The salt, pepper and butter in a cast iron skillet is what makes this! And I didn't go by her measurement for salt, I just sprinkled what I would normally do on steaks. But it comes out so juicy and like salty buttery goodness. We do not do steaks any other way now!

    One world "delicious"!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I actually grilled my steaks and using a high end sea salt " fleur de sel" & peppercorn by India Tree. The fleur de sel and pepper corn is a little pricey, but worth every penny. High quality ingredients is key to this delicious meal. Users commenting that the steak was too salty must be using the wrong salt. Spend the extra money and get the India Tree fleur de sel and peppercorn. This is a great meal to impress all your friends/guests.

    Restaurant Quality

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I have never made steak in the oven before, but I know of restaurants that use this method. I only made one steak therefore I did not use as much salt or pepper. My steak turned out perfect. I did use sea salt vs. table salt and I have no complaints about it being salty. Cannot wait to make it again!!

    Awesome!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    People, people, people. Kosher salt is not created equal to table salt. Of course you thought it was way too salty - i would have too. That's why I read recipes and reviews if i'm not sure. geeze. But I digress. I've always had the mindset that the only way to make a steak is on a grill. Not so, anymore. A cast iron skillet is such a great idea for this. Will definitely use this recipe again and again. Ina, you are the best!

    OMG! DELICIOUS!!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I just made the steaks not the cheese sauce, but this method is awesome!! Taste just like Ruth's Chris Steaks!!! Soooo much better than grilling them! I only seasoned them with kosher salt and black pepper and I did not have the salt problem some other people said they have. I will definitely be using this as my go-to steak recipe!

    I haven't made this recipe but must comment on the salt issue. Fleur de sel is sea salt and has a much lighter and delicate flavor than regular table salt or even Kosher salt which I use all the time.

    Not too much salt

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    To: Too Much Salt Did you use 'KOSHER SALT'? People, kosher salt is half as powerful as regular salt. This recipe is great!

    Our family loved the recipe!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    My oldest daughter and I made this over the 4th of July weekend and the rest of the family loved the steaks. They melted in our mouths. We could not find the salt Ina recommended so we used regular sea salt so our steaks were not too salty. We did not make the sauce but we did make the mushrooms and onion rings and they were great! We will definitely make them again.

    TOO MUCH SALT!

    Rated: 1 stars out of 5
    I love Ina's recipes, but broke a fundamental rule of mine... making a new recipe for company before trying first at home for just hubby. The steak was cooked to perfection, and then the first bite.... it was ruined by too much salt. I was horribly embarrassed! No one said anything until I did and then of course, everyone agreed, but was kind nonetheless. The cheese sauce was also horribly salty, so no relief there. It would have helped to have had approximate cooking time for the steak, but not a huge problem. Overall, I will try it again, with a PINCH of salt!! No good steak requires much salt anyway. PS The onion rings-- perfection, as were the mushrooms.

    Steakhouse Steaks

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I made this from the actual print out of the recipe and it did NOT have the cook time for oven part of cooking thus I guessed which worked out anyway, same thing as others a little more salt than I ususally use, but I did try the coffee grinder to grind peppercorns and wow! what a difference with fresh ground peppercorns, I certainly will do that in the future.

    The idea was great my boyfriend and I made the entire meal from this episode the only thing I would change is the amount of salt. Way too salty. We should have read the reviews first! Ya live and learn!

    what fun!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    We, too, made this recipe within 2 days of seeing Ina making it on an episode. Indeed, we made the whole menu from the TV show- steaks, mushrooms, sauce, onion rings!! We had so much fun buying the ingredients, talking about who would do what, actually makiing it, and, most especially, eating it (tonight). Thank you. We had not read the review about "too much salt," but concur completely. A weird feeling to read that others experienced the same thing (OK, obviously a internet rookie!).

    Best Steal done at home

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    The first time I fixed these steaks, was soon after Ina did this on TV. My husband said they were as good as Ruth's Chris Steakhouse, and we have an excellent Ruths Chris In Mobile, AL. I originally did my real thick fillets for 8 minutes and they were perfect medium rare. But some of my steaks have been thinner so you need to adjust the timing. I did rib eyes the same way but only seared them for a minute on each of 2 sides and baked for 5 minutes for medium rare. I've never had such a tender rib eye doing it this way. Cooking is a lot of common sense. I just salt and pepper my steaks as I do anything. If you don't like a lot of S @ P, don't use it like the recipe. A bigger, thicker steak could take more. For some reason the oven cooking or maybe the searing and then the oven cooking make the steaks so tender. Has anyone tried a strip steak this way? If a strip is as tender fixed this way, then it is definitely the cooking method.

    Making this a menu staple (with a few minor adjustments)!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    Made this last night and it turned out perfect! I read through the reviews before preparing, so I did reduce the salt by 1/2. I did have to remove some in Ina's Gormet touches to make this a bit more practical. I did not grind peppercorns in a coffee grinder...I just used the ground pepper produced from a black peppercorn grinder from a local market. I also used kosher salt. Increased the oven time for medium well/well done steaks (to meet the request of my dinner guest) to about 15 min. I used meat thermometers (as Ina did) as well. The sauce was wonderful. I cut the salt in half b/c the cheese is quite salty.
