Guest Post by Jon Bailey, Omaha Steaks Brand Ambassador<\/em><\/p>\n

Recently I had the opportunity to visit behind the scenes at the Omaha Steaks headquarters facilities in Omaha, Nebraska (where else?).\u00a0 It was a fascinating tour that highlighted the care and precision that goes into hand-butchering each steak that eventually finds its way to homes all across the US. Since they\u2019ve been doing this for 100+ years, Omaha Steaks has perfected butchering to a fine art. I guess that\u2019s why the new Omaha Steaks Custom Butcher Services is becoming so popular.<\/p>\n

Omaha Steaks Custom Butcher Services<\/strong><\/h2>\n

While in Omaha, I met several of the butchers working to ensure each steak is of the finest quality and cut, and I learned more about Omaha Steaks Custom Butcher Services<\/a>. Talking with Mark (who has been at Omaha Steaks for more than 40 years), he told me I could order any steak I wanted to my own specifications. Thickness, weight, shape \u2013 whatever I wanted. He even said they have a customer who orders special steaks custom-butchered in the shape of the state of Texas!<\/p>\n

Truly custom butchering, just like the old days? Yep, and these butchers aim to please with special orders.<\/p>\n

I started thinking about our friends back home, and how much we all love steak. The thing is, each of us loves a different cut \u2013 and there are so many choices. I like the super-flavorful rib eye steak, while Triton prefers the thick and beefy filet of prime rib. Our friend Paul typically chooses the New York Strip, while his wife Indra loves a juicy filet mignon. Until I learned I could get custom butcher services at Omaha Steaks, I would have served one type for everyone.<\/p>\n

Instead, I decided to contact Omaha Steaks Custom Butcher Services and order up a bunch of steaks cut especially for our friends\u2019 special orders. I thought it would be fun to have a Steak Tasting party so we could all taste each other\u2019s favorite cuts.<\/p>\n

How It Works<\/strong><\/h2>\n

On the Omaha Steaks website, there is an option under the Steaks drop-down menu to click Custom Butcher Services<\/a>. I filled out the form to connect me with a Steak Expert, and shortly after that I was on a phone call with JC from Omaha Steaks. Once I explained the dinner party I wanted to organize, JC helped guide me towards a special order the butchers would prepare just for us.<\/p>\n

Through that initial phone call with JC, my order from Omaha Steaks Custom Butcher Services started to take shape. JC asked me how many people we would be feeding, whether they had big appetites, and what preferences in steak they had expressed. From there, he helped me choose a selection of customized cuts of several types of steak to feed our 10 guests:<\/p>\n
