BLT Steak Gruyere Popovers
These airy golden puffs are served warm from the oven at BLT Steak, a modern American steakhouse opened by acclaimed French chef Laurent Tourondel. Easy to make at home, the popovers are delicious paired with our Steakhouse Filets Mignons (see related recipe at left). After rotating the pan partway through the baking time, don't open the oven door again until the popovers are done; this will help ensure they rise evenly.

Constant Request
November 19, 2012
My older brother is a chef and continues to ask for these popovers! Easy to make and taste delicious. Lots of cheese, however, so make sure to balance it out with something green.
Pros: Quick, Good Value, Easy, Kid-Friendly, Appearance, Adaptable, Impressive, Will Make Again
Cons: Unhealthy

A Bit Awkward
November 4, 2012
I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my popovers didn't rise like those in the picture and I could taste the egg in them. I think the eggs may have cooked a bit when I added the hot milk.
Pros: Quick

Excellent recipe but can use a little twist!
April 7, 2011
I made it exactly as instructed and they turned out fantastic, not to mention how fun it was to watch them puffed up! However, I added chives to the 2nd batch and think the salt amount should be reduced a bit - perhaps 1/3 less kosher salt. I'll definitely try the chives again and will make a cinnamon-sugar butter spread for those w/o chives. Very delicious!!!
Pros: Appearance, Impressive, Will Make Again

Excellent but...

I've been making Yorkshire pudding for decades and these popovers are much more reliable though a bit dry in comparison. I would definitely have butter or gravy handy for dipping. I strongly recommend popover tins, not muffin tins (I got mine here).

Amazing Recipe
March 10, 2011
I was so nervous to try this recipe...because I was making it for my uncle - who is the king of popovers in our family. They turned out perfect - so delicious...and easy to make! This recipe made enough batter for 24 mini-popovers (in case you want to cut it in half). Will definitely make this again. A great side for short ribs.

Popovers are easy!
February 23, 2011
Tried these, LOVED these!
To the previous reviewer who couldn't figure out when add the cheese, read the recipe: "Fill the prepared cups about three-fourths full with batter and sprinkle each with 1/2 oz. cheese."

Where's the cheese?
February 20, 2011
These look absolutely perfect. Except I'll have to guess when to add the cheese; with the liquid, with the flour or do I stir it in after adding the milk??? I'm guessing the cheese should be stirred in after adding the milk. Stay tuned, I'll be back to let you know the result!
Response from Williams-Sonomaby James, Test Kitchen, February 23, 2011
Hi Sadieshopper,
I think you may have just overlooked that part in the recipe. In the 3rd step of the instructions it says to "Fill the prepared cups about three-fourths full with batter and sprinkle each with 1/2 oz. cheese."
I hope you give them a try because they are fantastic. When we tested them, we couldn't stop eating them!

OOPs!
My apologies. I've discovered speed reading doesn't work when following a recipe. The Popover pan is great and my family really enjoyed the Gruyere Popovers.

When to add cheese
It says right in the recipe to add 1/2 oz. of cheese to the top of the batter before baking. These are wonderful!

Recipe Does Say When to add Cheese
In response to sadieshopper's review stating the recipe didn't explain when to add the cheese: unless the recipe has been changed since the review was posted, it did say when to add the cheese. Specifically, it says to sprinkle 1/2 oz of cheese to the top of each popover before placing in the oven.
