Outback Steakhouse™

When you walk into an Outback Steakhouse™, you’ll find boomarangs on the wall, stuffed crocodiles, didgeridoos and maps of Australia. You’ll also find menu items named after cities in Australia. Does it taste like Australian food? I have no idea. I’ve never been to Australia.

Outback Steakhouse™ really made a name for itself with their “Bloomin’ Onion”. It’s rare for restaurant recipes to actually have a product on late night TV, but that’s what happened with the Bloomin’ Onion. You could order a special tool to make your onions “bloom” as well.

Recipes:

Alice Springs Chicken
Grilled chicken breast topped with bacon, honey mustard sauce, sautéed mushrooms, Monterey Jack and Cheddar. Normally served with Aussie Chips.

Bloomin’ Onion
This is what put Outback Steakhouse™ on the map. You might want to buy a special tool to cut these just right.

Chopped Blue Cheese Salad
This Outback salad is an amazing mix of sweet candied pecans, creamy blue cheese, soft butter lettuce along with red leaf and iceberg. A very simple restaurant recipe you can make often.

Ranch Dressing
This is a rich and creamy dressing that starts with Hidden Valley Ranch powder dressing mix. You can change it up a bit if you like your dressing a little on the spicy side.

Potato Soup
I have scoured all of my resources and found a very close, if not exact, copy of the Outback Steakhouse potato soup recipe.  This comes straight from one of the former cooks at Outback.

Gold Coast Coconut Shrimp
Tender crispy shrimp in a beer batter with a light flaky coconut coating on the outside.  Delicious with the tangy tart flavors that come in the Creole marmalade.

Grilled Shrimp on the Barbie
Slightly seasoned and delicately grilled shrimp served with their signature remoulade sauce.  This is one of the most popular appetizers at Outback Steakhouse.

Remoulade Sauce
A rich and creamy sauce with just enough zip from the horseradish. Serve this with the Grilled Shrimp on the Barbie or their Pan Seared Lump Crab Cakes.

Bushman Bread
This is a fantastic dark bread with a delicious crunchy crust.  Server it warm from the oven and delight your guests.

Wallaby-Darned
The way the Outback™ describes it is like this: “Down under frozen wonder with peaches, DeKuyper Peachtree Schnapps, champagne, Smirnoff Vodka and secret mixers.”

    Thank you so much for posting the recipe for lobster mushroom topping! I have been looking on line for years for that!!! Yummy!

  10. I absolutely need the recipe for the creamy ginger soy sauce that is served with the Ahi Tuna appetizer. It is delicious and I need it the next time I make asian food!

  11. I need the reciepe for the carrot cake, mother-in-law is very sick and this is the only thing that she will eat…this would be a blessing as OutBack is a 2 hour drive from me.. thanks

  12. I second what John (1/21/11) requested. I would really LOVE the recipe for the creamy ginger soy sauce served with the Ahi Tuna. It’s delicious on the steak as well. I think I could live off this sauce.

  13. Thank you so much for lobster mushroom topping!!! They have discontinued it on the menu here in Denver and I am having serious withdrawals!!

  14. Can you hep me find the french onion soup recipe they used to have it on the menu a couple years ago but its been canceled for like 2-3 years now. NOT THE WALKABOUT SOUP OR THE CREAMY ONION SOUP, its a dark brown FRENCH ONION with a bread slice on top with provolne or swiss I think melted on top, it was served in a crock. Ive tried every french onion soup recipe online and ive had fo soup at every restraunt around here that serves it, I’ve paid 5 bucks (outback/applebees) and 15 bucks (some fancy places) and yet to find one that even comes close to it. The difference between it and other fo soups is its consitency and taste, its thicker and has a distinct taste I cant describe.

  15. I would love the recipe for Outbacks Chicken Tortilla Soup. i have tried others but theirs is my favorite. i would appreciate it, if anyone would have the recipe.

  16. OMG…I’m so happy to have found their lobster and mushroom topping! I love, love, LOVE IT!! When I go (which is rare) I get it for my steak and end up putting it on everything! Thank you!

  17. I found a creamy ginger-soy sauce @ Whole Foods Market that is just like Outback’s. (Made seared tuna at home…Rubbed Chinese 5-spice on ahi and seared 45 seconds each side…MMMMm)

  18. Dale, it took me a while to get, but their secret is mixing real melted butter (stick) with sweet whipped butter (like Land o Lakes) and they melt them together and sometimes add a drop or two of lemon.

  19. I Would So Love the Recipe of the carrot Cake Outbacks is the Only Place I have found that makes it So Good and Without Raisin’s.. And the Sauce that they put on there No Rule Pasta??? Someone please Help me with this:)

  20. Please please please tell me how you make your bushies mushrooms and ranch dipping sauce entré! My fiancé and I come here all the time and I’d love to know how to make them from home 🙂

  21. I really want your lobster tail recipe. The one where you get two lobster tails. Outback makes the best lobster tails in the universe. Well, that’s my opinion. ASAP would be good. My husband wants to make it for me for Mothers Day (tonight).
    Mahalo.
