Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Pans: Preheat oven to 400°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease them with oil. Set aside.
Prepare the Seasoning: Combine seasoning ingredients in a small bowl.
Cut the Potatoes: Cut Russet potatoes into thick steak fry-style wedges. Try to keep them uniform for even cooking.
Season the Potatoes: Divide the wedges between the two prepared baking sheets. Drizzle each pan of potato wedges with ½ of the vegetable oil and sprinkle each with about ¼ tablespoon of Red Robin-style seasoning. Use your hands or a spatula to toss directly on the pan until evenly coated.
Arrange the Fries: Spread the seasoned wedges into a single layer on each pan. Make sure the fries aren’t touching so they can crisp properly.
Add More Seasoning: Sprinkle the remaining ½ tablespoon of seasoning, evenly over the tops (divided between the two pans). Add more or less to taste.
Bake the Fries: Bake for 40 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through. Rotate the baking sheets top to bottom and bottom to top for even browning.
Serve: Remove from the oven and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes
Storage: Store leftover fries in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for the best texture.Store left over seasoning in an airtight container. I like to use a mason jar.Customization Ideas: Add a pinch of cayenne for a spicy version, or top with shredded cheddar and chopped green onions for loaded steak fries.
