Finger Steaks

Purportedly invented by Milo Bybee in Boise, Idaho in 1957, finger steaks usually consist of strips of beef steak that are battered and deep-fried in hot oil. The finger steaks can be served as a snack or an appetizer, and it is recommended to accompany them with french fries, fry sauce (ketchup and mayonnaise), or a cocktail sauce made with a combination of lemon juice, chili sauce, and horseradish. Although this dish was invented in the 1950s, it was at the height of its popularity during the 1970s, but it is still a popular bar snack throughout Idaho.
