What would entice you to buy from Omaha Steaks?

This isn’t a thread knocking them. Just curious should they be avoided at all costs? Is it good meat, just overpriced? What’s the deal?

I’ve been gifted them two or three times. In my opinion you can get the same quality meat at your local piggly wiggly/Winn Dixie. Bacon wrapped filets are weird to me. I absolutely love bacon, and I absolutely love filets but I just want salt, pepper, garlic, and butter on my steaks. They’re definitely over priced impulse buy but easy gifts. I’ll eat it again tomorrow but I’m not buying from them if I have other options.

Cuz bongino said to. In reality, I’d never order streaks.

The meat at your local market is way better quality than Omaha Steaks.

Support your local butcher

I've been gifted boxes a couple of times, steaks chops and chicken breasts. I prefer to buy from the grocery store

Nothing. I have no interest in their steaks. The reason I think most people buy them is convenience and that’s the only reason. You get a box of individually packaged steaks that you put in your freezer and pull out whenever you want. It’s easy.

Yes, but so is the majority of the meat you buy at every grocery store, at some point anyway.

You are correct sir. Most beef is wet aged in cryovacs, but some is frozen. Omaha Steaks are all shipped frozen.

If you're interested in good mail order steaks, look into Snake River Farms.

I have some friends that I'd consider steak connoisseurs and they've been swearing by them. Wagyu if that means anything to you.

Just glancing, it looks pretty darn pricey. Maybe a good gift idea?

My mom got them a ton when I was a kid. Burgers and Filets mostly.

It was good before I knew there was way better meat out there. It is acceptable to eat it if you don't have alternatives IMO or as said earlier if you want the ease of having it delivered etc.

Just a bot bumping old threads so they can edit to add spam later

Is that what it is? Only four posts. Last two were weird bumps.

Is there an Omaha steak restaurant? Lol
