Home of the sizzling sirloin served in a metal tray on top of of an insulated tray. The steak really sizzled loudly as they brought it out, thus creating the advertising concept of "sell the sizzle, not the steak."

Its fake. Your steak likely sits already cooked under a heat lamp, skillets underneath hot burners. When its time to bring it out, they plop the dead cow part on top of the hot skillet, throw some oil on it. Voila. "Sizzlin steak". Mexican restaurants also are notorious for this when they bring out fajitas.

The more you know. ;D
