Zip Sauce Recipe for Steak – Inspired by the Rochester Chop House, Detroit and Andiamos. Zip Sauce recipe ingredients include – crushed dried rosemary, dry thyme leaf, garlic powder, minced parsley, butter, salt, coarse black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, ground cumin, cayenne pepper.
Zip sauce is a sauce unlike a traditional “steak sauce”. Sure, it has a little Worcestershire sauce, but a lot of the flavor comes from the mustard, garlic, and (especially) the butter
My husband always gets the Zip Sauce when he orders steak at The Rochester Chop House. I know the original recipe was born on Woodward and traveled to The Chop House (and beyond) but I wanted to come up with my own Zip Sauce recipe for when I grill them at home. I think this is a decent clone recipe and pretty easy to make. If I could stew red tomatoes like The Rochester Chop House, another signature favorite, I’d be all set :)
