In the mid 19th century it was Delmonico’s practice to serve whatever the butcher thought was best that night as its "Delmonico" steak.[3] It was accompanied by Delmonico potatoes, a serving of mashed potatoes topped with grated cheese and buttered breadcrumbs and baked until browned.

A Delmonico steak is often considered to be cut from the first 3" of the chuck eye.[citation needed] In practice, various other cuts of steak are called Delmonico, with regional variation in the United States. It may simply be any thick-cut steak.[4]
