Carefully prepared steaks, burgers and BBQ specialities deserve an equally appealing presentation. This is where steak and burger plates come into their own: designed specifically for serving these dishes, they offer plenty of room for meat, buns, sides and dips. Explore the LUSINI range of steak plates and burger plates in a variety of shapes, colours and designs.

Steak Plates & Burger Plates – What Sets Them Apart?

Compared to standard dinner plates, steak plates and burger plates are typically larger in size. Their generous diameter makes it easy to serve chips, salad, grilled vegetables or sauces alongside the main dish without the plate looking overcrowded. Beyond an attractive presentation, spacious steak plates or burger platters also make it easier for your guests to cut and enjoy their meal.

Robust materials and hard-wearing surfaces make these plates an ideal choice for daily use in restaurants, steakhouses, burger bars and BBQ venues.

Choosing the Right Steak or Burger Plate

Selecting the right burger or steak plate for your establishment depends first and foremost on your menu. In addition to size and material, shape and design also play a key role.

When choosing your steak and burger plates, look out for:

sufficient space for the main course and sides
durable materials suited to daily use
dishwasher- and microwave-safe where required
shapes and designs that match your serving concept
stackable models for space-saving storage

Burger Plates

A burger plate for professional use offers ample space for the burger itself along with chips, coleslaw, dips or additional sides. This allows complete dishes to be plated up neatly and appetisingly.

Depending on your restaurant concept, classic round burger plates, contemporary square variants or rustic stoneware designs are all popular choices. Dark colours or natural glazes are particularly effective at showcasing burgers on the plate.

Steak Plates vs. Steak Platters

A steak plate is ideal for classic single-portion steak dishes with sides. Steak plates often feature a slightly raised rim and offer plenty of room for meat, vegetables or potato accompaniments.

Steak platters made of porcelain or stoneware tend to be larger and are often used for multiple cuts of meat, mixed grills or BBQ specialities. Depending on the design, they keep food warm for longer and provide plenty of surface area for the various components of a dish.

Which option is right for you depends on whether you're serving individual portions or generous grill dishes – possibly for sharing between several guests.

Steak Boards

Alongside classic steak plates, steak boards have become increasingly popular. They add a rustic touch and are a perfect fit for steakhouses, grill restaurants and modern BBQ concepts. Usually made of wood, steak boards provide ample room for the steak itself, sides and sauces.

Our Tip: Matching Steak Cutlery for Effortless Cutting

For the perfect steak experience, we recommend pairing your plates with matching steak cutlery. Specialised steak knives and steak forks make cutting effortless and complete the place setting both functionally and visually.

Which Materials Are Suitable for Steak and Burger Plates?

Depending on the dishes served, your interior concept and personal preferences, steak and burger plates come in a range of materials. Beyond visual differences, the material also affects the everyday usability of your tableware.

Porcelain is the classic choice in professional catering. It stands out for its excellent durability, smooth surface and timeless look.
Earthenware and stoneware lend burgers and steaks a modern, rustic character. Individual glazes and natural tones showcase grilled dishes particularly effectively.
Slate looks natural, elegant and distinctive. However, this natural stone is not suitable for the dishwasher and must not be cleaned with acidic detergents.
Wood gives your steaks or burgers a natural, rustic character and looks especially high-end. Wooden steak boards are not dishwasher-safe and should be cleaned by hand.
