Steak−n−Shake Chili Secret Recipe


The Steak n Shake Company (Steak n Shake) is engaged in the ownership, operation and franchising of Steak n Shake restaurants. As of September 28, 2005, the Company had 399 Company-owned restaurants and 49 franchised restaurants located in 20 states. Steak n Shake restaurants are generally open around the clock. In addition to its core menu, the Company offers a breakfast menu during breakfast hours. During the fiscal year ended September 28, 2005 (fiscal 2005), lunch and dinner sales accounted for approximately 36.4% and 45.4% of sales, respectively, while breakfast and late night sales account for 6.6% and 11.6% of sales, respectively. The Company offers full-service dining with counter and dining room seating, as well as drive-thru and carryout service. Steak n Shake's menu has featured items that include STEAKBURGER sandwiches, thin and crispy French fries, and hand-dipped milk shakes. In fiscal 2005, new menu offerings included expansion of Sippable Sundaes Milk Shakes, with the inclusion of one additional Holiday shake flavor, white chocolate and the addition of two new Halloween Shakes.

During fiscal 2005, Steak n Shake opened 19 new units and four new franchisees units. The Company owned units were built in the Florida, Indiana, Ohio and Texas markets, with a franchise opening creating a new presence in Arkansas. During such time it completed the purchase of 17 restaurants owned by Kelley Restaurants, Inc. (KRI), a former franchisee. Steak n Shake's franchising program is designed to extend brand name recognition and derive additional revenues without substantial investment by the Company.

The Company operates a distribution center in Bloomington, Illinois, from which food products (except for items purchased by the restaurants locally, such as bakery goods, produce and dairy products) and restaurant supplies are delivered to 102 Company-owned and nine franchised restaurants. The restaurants served by the distribution center are located in parts of the Midwest (primarily in Illinois, Missouri, Iowa and Wisconsin). The restaurants that are not serviced by the distribution center obtain Company-approved food products and supplies from two separate independent distributors, one with locations in Orlando, Florida and Pryor, Oklahoma, and the other with a location in Zanesville, Ohio.

Steak n Shake is in the process of testing new Premium Topping Steakburgers for future launch. Offerings for these new Premium Topping Steakburgers include Three Cheese, Hickory Smoked Thick Bacon and Grilled Mushroom 'n Onion. As of September 28, 2005, the 49 franchised Steak n Shake restaurants operated by 17 franchisees, were located in Arkansas, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma and Tennessee. The Company assists franchisees with both the development and ongoing operation of their restaurants. Its management personnel assist with site selection, approve all restaurant sites and provide franchisees with prototype plans, and construction support and specifications for their restaurants. Steak n Shake's staffs provide both on-site and off-site instruction to franchised restaurant management associates.

The Company's financing subsidiary, SNS Investment Company, Inc. assists qualified franchisees in financing the development of one or more franchised restaurants by purchasing or leasing approved sites from third parties, constructing the restaurant and leasing or subleasing the finished facility to the franchisee. As of September 28 2005, six restaurants were being financed through this subsidiary.

Tried this exact same recipe on another site. Good chili, but nowhere near Steak and Shake Chili flavor. Nice try, but not even in the same ballpark.

Add some curry powder to this recipe and it is spot on.

Also, the dab of topping sauce they put on top is Ketchup and Worchestershire sauce
