I got some years ago...not worth imho. You can get prime beef in other places. Something about a rock hard frozen steak or burger that's hard to get excited about.

I got some as a gift one time. No big deal. Nice thought from a bud. Find yourself a good butcher, You will be much more happy.

I did it once also. I'll take a rib eye from Costco any day of the week over theirs.

Never had the steaks but the thick styro coolers they come in are great for transporting or mailing frozen food.

That's because you forgot to put news paper in the bottom. #-o I get those coolers from the Doc office where the wife works. They work the nuts for drop offs. :!:
I usually buy all my meat at Sam's and Costco, this was brought to me by the wifey, here's what you get:
4(5oz) filet Mignons; 4(5oz) top sirloins; 4(4oz) boneless pork chops; 2stuffed sole w/crabmeat & scallops;; 8 gourmet franks(hot dogs); 4 steak burgers(4oz); 10 portions potato au gratin; 6 additional steak burgers; 4 steak knives; cutting board; for $59.99
She just wanted to know what I thought, so I figured I would ask the experts.

I got them free from the shipper that screwed up the shipment of my pit. Good thing they were free. But the burgers weren't bad, the steaks were a bunch of Yuck!

Didn't want to waste my rub!
OK, I've never had Omaha Steaks. But last Saturday I went to work for the morning. On the way home I stopped at a meat market I frequent and asked for a couple of filets. The butcher said that they had some prime filets that were $4/lb more than the choice and asked if I wanted to try them. They were great. Melt in the mouth meat like you get in a primo steak house. Here's a pic before they hit the kettle. I used lump and was very pleased with the result.

Griff, those look so good I don't think I'd cook them. I'd have to chop them up and enjoy a little steak tartare.
