    Default Need good steaks for xmas, any suggestions??

    I want to get my father in law some good quality steaks from the midwest for christmas this year. I know omaha steaks makes ok steaks and ships them worldwide, but they are a bit expensive for the quality and taste. Does anyone have an other ideas for good steaks that can be shipped???

    Kansas City Steaks!

    I've gotten their steaks and burgers. I used to have it automatically delivered via QVC but you can order right from their website

    I don't know how they compare to Omaha for price or taste but I really enjoyed them.

    Both of these places sell great steaks, although not from the Midwest. Unfortunately, you could go to a top steakhouse and spend about the same $$$ for a comparable cut, and get it expertly prepared.

    I've received some Omaha's as a gift once... thought they were way over rated, both in price and quality. I've heard good things about Allen Brothers, but unfortunately I don't have any first hand experience with them.

    Although I can seldom afford it, a nice dry aged prime grade ribeye is about as close to heaven as I think I'll ever get .

    Angus beef is very popular in Europe. Ask the American Angus Association.

    I'm not sure how you feel about steakhouses vs. making your own steak, but if your father in law lives anywhere near you there is probably a Smith & Wollensky's nearby. I've eaten there twice -- once before my first deployment and once on my honeymoon -- and it was the best damn steak I have ever had. They sell gift cards...just a thought.

    I have eaten there and they have great steaks but my favorite is still Peter Lugers. The Palm also has really good steaks as well as Sparks here in NYC.

    Joe,

    Something tells me that you eat here on a regular basis.
