I ordered two large assortment packs of Omaha Steaks recently. I wasn’t impressed with the quality of the beef or the flavor compared to the high cost i paid.
I have purchased many Omaha Steaks in the past. There beef is the lowest grade you can get. It is stamped USDA inspected. You can buy USDA select or even better USDA choice at you local grocery store. The best is USDA Prime. You can buy Prime for much less than Omaha Steaks.
If you watch any Mash videos, you will soon realise that they are cobbled together from a host of advertising material and other sources. This video alone will have netted them around $3-000 from You-Tube advertising and they will make more with every view. 85% of these types of videos originate from India, where the US dollars are worth a lot more. While Mash are quite reasonable, some of them are a complete joke, one of the funniest was showing the New York fire department dealing with a fire that was posted as in London. No wonder it grew so large waiting for them to arrive. 😊
I can tell you from experience they do have great steaks...if you order the right ones. I LOVE their ribeye medallions and filets. Don't get the "gourmet hot dogs" gross.
@@brianblack546 Thank you both for sharing your opinion , I was about to finish checking out on their website and decided to close the tabs instead. Do you have any suggestions on where I can find Luxury Premium Steaks ? I'm looking for the finest quality and just top of the line. Price can be above average but I'm flexible and will pay a bit more as long as the quality is there.
@@fernandoaispuro1819 Most cities have a butcher shop. That would be the best place to get high quality steaks and they can custom cut for your preferences.
@@fernandoaispuro1819 Haven’t been successful online, it’s all frozen and then packed in dry ice for several days shipment. I agree, local butchers are the only way to go.
I've been ordering Omaha Steaks for years and that's how I used to always describe it..."Better than your local supermarket steaks (USDA Select)" but on par with USDA Choice. It's on the expensive side even with their numerous coupons but I do like that they stand behind their products and offer a 100% money back or replacement guarantee, no questions asked.
This is just a commercial for Omaha Steaks. The truth is the company sells USDA Choice and Select cuts at inflated prices. If you want USDA Prime Meat you’re going to have to shop somewhere else.
My father used to buy Omaha Steaks regularly and invite family over for a cookout. Good steak. Never thought they were very well marbled or tender for the money.
When I worked for them they'd incessantly remind me to say "marbling, not fat" and to talk up just how incredible the marbling was. That was my first job and I was never cut out to be a salesman so I ended up leaving. They make you write on a weekly chart in red or green (depending on if we met the algorithmically-generated goals for that week for items per transaction, average cost per transaction, average cost-per-item (take the total cost of an order, divide by # of items, which would drop a lot if a customer bought a bottle of seasoning or something cheap so this metric was kinda BS in terms of employee fairness), something to do with item stock and a decimal number for something else, and a couple of other seemingly obscure metrics, and if you're even slightly in red for a while they'd fire you. I found this way of tracking employee progress rather manipulative and neotonizing, like I was in adult kindergarten (plus the manager talked to us like she's a crazy cat lady trying to calm an angry and agitated dog down even when we're at ease) so I was glad to leave anyway. They also made us stare at a picture of the founding family for a while during training which I found... Dare I say borderline cultish? I mean don't get me wrong. It's one thing to know the company history but the way they went about it was unnecessarily intimate in a way. If I could give only one tip as a former employee, their stuff is wayyy overpriced by default for the most part, and only becomes somewhat worth it when they're doing "steep sales" which really just drop the item down to what an acceptable market value would be. This always left a bad taste in my mouth because, while they encouraged us to help save customers money for customer satisfaction, to a certain degree we were also incentivized to bring the average dollars-to-item ratio up and basically rip customers off, somewhat. It's far from a scam, just shady/questionable sales tactics that, to be fair, must work if they have all the brick and mortar stores like they did when I worked there. Also their computer register system is incredibly outdated, it's one of those command line interface programs from the 80s. As a techie growing up, I found this hilarious. Last thing that was sort of weird to me is they made us call customers "guests." Bit of doublespeak going on there, I think. I had to do some deconditioning on my mind to start calling them customers again at my next jobs.
Exactly! I've ordered Omaha steaks before and the quality is not worth the price. I could get the same quality for cheap price at a supermarket. Omaha steak is a rip off. Wonder how much this company paid Mesh to do this video.
@@mikewhite4466 I agree, I get quality ribeyes, flank and roasts at reasonable prices. Apparently they hired experienced butchers...no red dye in their beef like Walmart!! Plus, I like to personally select the meat I buy and not take a chance of ordering meat by mail ordering. I shop at the new Frys grocery store here in Apache Junction, Az. I was so pleasantly surprised by the quality meat market in this store. I always look forward to shopping here.
I wasnt that impressed with them. Very average meat for a premium price. You can get much better steaks at sam's club. One thing that is very telling about omaha steaks is they dont have a USDA grade like choice, select, or prime. They dont want you to know that. They say they use their own grading system. That's like letting students in a class grade their own papers...
Yeah right, Sam's club... Sam's Club sells USDA choice meat, it isn't even USDA prime. You shop at Sam's for cheap meat in extremely large portions, admit it!
I received a package of steaks and assorted beef as a holiday gift. It was decent, but not anything better than my local butcher or local grocery store. Plus they are priced higher.
I couldn't agree more I ask for whole slabs of meat like a whole roll ribeye and the price was 11.30$ a lb for prime that's half the price of if they butcher it. But I think sometimes maybe omaha steaks is worth the free steaks they do say money back guarantee... not sure if its true but for free I'll eat a lower grade steak lol.
So funny that this video comes out just after I made my first ever order from Omaha Steaks! It just came in, so I’ve only tried the Key Lime Tarts (which are really good!) but the burgers and beef meatballs I haven’t had a chance to try yet. I have some of the burgers defrosting so going to put them on the grill later today!
I've eaten (once) an Omaha Steaks Rib Eye, given to me by a friend. While I will admit it was definitively a good steak, I would not personally order one (or more) because : •They're a little pricey... •You don't get to choose the actual steak you purchase, just the cut you want... •I'm not totally sold on shipping of perishable products with short lifespans... •I was raised on beef that was raised locally and purchased as 'a side of' or a 'front/hind quarter'... •Lastly, there are certain cuts I use that we're not available from Omaha Steaks...
Tommy Saulter -- Well, I have been letting them choose the cut I pick and I have never had a bad one in 18 years.... Have grilled a zillion of them on my Weber outside and they always taste great... Their seasonings I also use and they are also super... I believe you can now order bigger pieces of meat like you mention..
You just revealed how much you DON'T know about beef. Omaha will sell you a tenderloin that is below choice or prime for over $48/lb plus shiping. Costco will sell you a choice tenderloin for around $20/lb (which will walk all over the Omaha steak) and a prime tenderloin, astronomically better, for around $25/lb. Plus, most of the beef you find at Costco reveals nice aging (pale pink, not bloody, firm) as opposed to the gray looking meat you tend to get from Omaha. There is simply no comparison. I am not trying to shame you for your choices, but I AM trying to shame you for not knowing what you are talking about. You can draw your own conclusions but both you and I know right now: you know nothing about how to choose a higher quality product for the price you are paying.
Even if they aren't frozen, you have to buy a big assortment from them and unless you are living in the movie "Cheaper by the Dozen" you'll have to freeze your purchase to avoid throwing it away. A more sensible option is as you stated, whenever you want a steak, go buy it locally.
@@danc2014 I respect your point, but it comes down to molecular biology. One of the things that makes water such a unique molecule, is the unlike most others, it actually starts to EXPAND as it comes with a few degrees of it's freezing point. Since most cells are filled with water, this causes damage to the cells and therefore the meat. But you make a good point. 10 days isn't "fresh" but when I said "fresh" I simply meant not frozen.
Used to order and eat these steaks until the quality slipped and the prices went up at the same time. Excellent marketing, though. I order now from other, better mail order meat companies. May try Omaha again one day...maybe.
I have had their gift packages several times. I have yet to have one steak that was not tough. Overpriced. I would not purchase their products with my money. For the price, small portions. JS
I wasted my money on some Omaha steaks once. They were so thin you could have read a newspaper through the steaks. Quality was mediocre at best and I can't understand how they keep enough new customers coming in to stay afloat. I honestly can't imagine anyone orders from them twice.
My mom sends me their chicken and pork which is individually packed. It is super handy to have around especially since the food shortages from the pandemic. Couldn't find chicken for weeks
if you dont have any local stores around... Ok fine i can see you spending money this way... However 50 dollars a lb or more for steak... is ridiculous . If im gonna spend that kind of money... im going out to a local steak house for a night out. I lIke their steaks... but they never used to cost this much. Years back i was spending about 1/2 what they are charging now and getting way more. Ill go to costco or sams club if i need a large amount of steaks at once.
? My daughter ask, "Dad what about Omaha Steaks?""Well they were good at one time but money got in the way." I still feel that way today. It was a one time a good product for a good deal. Like many of the comments below I have found my local butcher will offer me a high quality product for a better price. If I want to go the store chain HEBs offers Prime Beef!
Their 6 oz Private Reserve burgers are good. So are the 5 oz gourmet burgers. Try them in an air fryer from frozen. Avoid the 4 oz burgers. Stick with the bacon wrapped fillets. I've tried a few of the skillet and crock pot meals and liked them all.
They are pure marketing. Their steaks are no better than a select or choice cut you can get from a grocery store. But you'll pay like the cows were imported from Mars.
I have had seven different deliveries of different special assortments during Covid. They have been totally great! The apple tarts are eaten the day they arrive! I have no idea what these haters are talking about.
Over priced, you get a total of 3 lbs of meat not just steaks 4 tater tots basically and those nasty apple tarts you mentioned an additional pound for $60.00. 4 divided by 60 is $15.00 / lb and a pound is tater tots and a dollar dessert at best. It's highway robbery and down right insane to pay that kind of money for convenience.
@@captainamericaamerica8090 I wasn't impressed with anything from the package, and a 4 oz. steak isn't even an appetizer gotta be 16 to 20 oz and a real tater.
Best burgers. No I mean NO grit or gritty taste in the burgers like the burger from the chain super markets! Might be more but so much healthier, smooth taste than any meat out there to buy! My brother in law loves there hot dogs. My sister needs to buy hoagie rolls to put the hot dog in. What does this tell you? Must give this company a try, should be on your bucket list.
All Omaha Steaks products are DELICIOUS including their decadent desserts. Worth every penny and you get a free cooler that is perfect for keeping food fresh like on fishing trips.
Amen, amen and AMEN! Every steak was grainy and dry. Of course if you want them rare or medium rare it may be OK. But if you want medium, medium well or well, I would NOT advise you to buy them. Also as Jeffery said, they are just too expensive for what you get. I will never try them again.
@@MrPatdeeee Any professional chef will tell you to cook a prime cut of beef no more than medium rare. If you want it any more than that, go get a cheap ass shitty steak from Wal-mart.
Jeffrey Showalter - perhaps you do not know to to cook a great steak??? I have never had one "grainy" - what are you doing to them ??? Burning them??? Probably....
FUN FACT: Undesirable orders are return routed to various homeless shelters.... including the deserts and other items. I know this first hand... I actually heard some of the men complain, "filet mignon again?!"
If you got it, buy it... $$$ I already bought my Thanksgiving feast from them. I started being a loyal customer of Omaha Steaks because of this pandemic 🥰 They kept my family fed while local stores shelves were empty and limiting food/meat purchases (if you could even find meat). Omaha kept my freezer full and my kiddos well fed. When I couldn’t order for several weeks, this sweet man called me and offered me a better deal & helped me out. I trust Omaha with my families food needs and will be a customer for the rest of my life.
@@frandanco6289 I don't even think Walmart sells steaks, at least where I live they don't. I will break it down for your ignorant ass even though I know I will be wasting my time on some internet dropout: Beef comes in eight primal cuts from a whole cow. These cuts are chuck, rib, loin (short loin and sirloin), round, flank, short plate, brisket and shank. MOST quality beef is graded by the USDA to determine its quality which will include tenderness and marbling. There are eight grades of beef but only the top three will EVER be found in a restaurant. Prime, choice and select. Anything lower than that and you are probably in a ghetto somewhere thinking you are getting a deal. Select is garbage! Choice is very good for the average consumer. Prime is expensive but worth it. Now you need to ask yourself why Omaha does not offer any cuts in any of these top grades? Maybe you don't know what you are talking about? Yep, I think that is the issue here. You paid a BUTTLOAD of money for some mealy steaks and you are so angry you are coming on this forum to insult anyone who knows better so you can justify your MISTAKE. Or should I say MISTEAK! Nitwit. Shoulda stayed in school.
I received Omaha steak box for Xmas,, complete garbage.. In the box was 5oz fillets, steak bites, chicken breasts, pork chops, hot dogs, ground beef and hamburger patties.. At first I was excited to see what was in the box, but once I realized that the fillets where the only actual cuts of steak I became very disappointed.. I would value the box at about $30. I ate 1 fillet, it was not great, The fillet had no marbling, and was a brownish tint to it instead of deep red. I also was very let down to think the Omaha steak co would send hotdogs in a steak box. I would not recommend buying one of these boxes. I wrote Omaha steak to ask If I could sent the box back and for them to refund my mom, waiting on their reply.
@@nickdeliso7026 Because it would be nice for the consumer to know they are frozen before they plunk the money down? By the time they are on your doorstep, it's too late. And before you say "Of course they would be frozen, they are shipped". No, there is a way of shipping chilled with dry ice.
@@Anon1mous Go ahead and buy the mystery meat at Crack-World... I will never purchase any meat from Crack -World.. Sometimes, there are great sales here and then, it is easier to buy here.. Once you eat any of their steaks, you will see why they have such a loyal following..
I ordered a few times from Omaha Steak and was completely satisfied. I tried to order later looking for deals, but the deals came with things that I do not like. Then UPS delivery guy stole my shipment! The same guy who stole my $350 printer! That was the last time I ordered. I have no way to receive the shipment without being cheated.
@@frandanco6289 Omaha Steak said because the food is frozen using dry ice, they cannot require a signature. But they were nice enough to send me a new shipment. As for the printer, the UPS guy signed some name to pretend it was delivered. When he delivered the replacement printer, he did not ask for a signature (required). I looked it up online and it was the SAME signature!
I lived in Ireland for 13 years, and any private butcher shop you go into has the farm or ranch listed on their board from where their meat is souced. Best food I have eaten.
Nothing special about their beef. If I want a nice steak I’ll pay a premium for Snake River Farms or 44 Farms, but Omaha is a joke. Cheaper to buy beautifully marbled USDA Prime beef from Costco!
Costco does not have the same quality meats. I'm telling ya. Ive tried both and there is no comparison. That's my opinion. Costco may be a little cheaper but Omaha is way more tender and tastes like a good restaurant steak. Costco meats are always more like rubber.
Roger Brenon There is nothing special about Omaha Steaks. Is the beef from Omaha grass-fed? Exotic breed such as Wagyu? Grading? Omaha isn’t bad, but no way in hell it warrants the prices they charge.
Costco is cheaper then any supermarket I buy from I buy prime ribeye for 11$ a lb as long as I buy the whole ribeye roll which is not a big deal for me I love steak... however snake river farms is unsurpassed without question american wagyu that I literally dream of sometimes... I have bought easily 5000$ worth of their meat and will buy more every year on black Friday I have gotten up to 70% off total price using all the discounts at once and even the multi buy discount. Nothing from their I haven't tried even bought a whole roll ribeye from them and dry aged it still have steaks double vacuum sealed and frozen... pure wagyu and kobe are nice but too much fat to eat a whole steak solo american wagyu is the perfect mix of fat and meat..... nothing more I can say although I can talk about it for days lol... one last word.. pichanha... =)
Never had an Omaha steak that I know of. Always knew about them but can’t say I’ve had them. Just goes to show you how many people there are just in this country to keep this business alive after all these years.
Clickbait title. There was no "untold truth". Not even a single negative comment. Not even the fact that the minimum order is $99 and you pay shipping on top of that. Mediocre quality for premium prices.
Matt Gleason It DOES say "skip Adds " on my screen,but many times we have come close to ordering, but thought you can't choose your steak, just the cut. After hearing the majority, I will stick to local meat counters , at best customers are giving Ohmaha Steaks a 50 -50 recommendation, not a very good showing for them. I just went to local market for some Ribeye,bone in ,steaks ,for the 4th of July as a treat for our Family, $36.00 . I don't know what they would cost at OS but they were wonderful ,I think we will stick to local markets !
I don't like them at all. I ordered Thanksgiving dinner for 4 adults and got the surprise of my life. A tiny ham, 4 mini cheesecakes, scalloped potatoes, and stuffing. I didn't try the stuffing because it was way too much of a hassle to cook. The potatoes were so nasty and it was airline portions. So tiny!!! More like feeding small children portions. The ham was tasty and the mini cheesecakes were so good!! Not worth the money for the dinner though and it put me in a bad bind for supper.
Actually I wouldn't be surprised. You can them I hate their commercials and their food looks so awful! I will not be from them! I hope they go out of business soon!
I buy Omaha products & have for many years. If this is a infomercial it is accurate. The best steaks I ever had. So i don't care what anybody says good or bad. I love Omaha Steaks. I don't buy any sides so I don't know about that. If any sides come in the packages I give them to my neighbor. I just want & usually get just the meat.♥️
i have not found them to be all that special, my room mate gets a pkg every xmas from his mom and he shares with me... my local grocery store is just as good and prob cheaper
@@captainamericaamerica8090 Im thinking your brain is like an old worn out shoe - with no laces either....They have great flavor and are very tender.. Perhaps you are lying again????
I had bought them, mail order YEARS ago , was not impressed with the quality, or taste must be 30 years ago, MY SUPERMARKET sells BLACK ANGUS, & GRASS FED BEEF from AUSTRALIA,,or NZ for not much more than regular beef , but COSTCO meat is good, but they also sell PRIME BEEF , tastes better than OMAHAH STEAKS., AND LESS $ Cheers 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Flyby Airplane my father used to buy Omaha steaks. Nothing exceptional about the steaks except high price. I’m happy to go to Costco and buy prime steaks. Omaha now sells a lot of overpriced side items. Omaha is all about the marketing.
@@frandanco6289 Go to the Omaha site and TRY to order a choice or prime graded steak. You will fail because they don't offer them. They offer lower grades, probably lower than select which is bordering cat food. But you don't even know the difference. That's OK, keep them in business. And let me guess, you also have ordered Ginsu knives on line thinking they are fine cutlery?
@@frandanco6289 "And you know this how????? " I know this because you can get a choice graded tenderloin, which is a higher grade than Omaha offers, for $20/lb (MAX). Omaha tenderloins are a lower grade than choice and they will charge you around $48/lb. THAT is how I know this Einstein! Buyer beware. Or in your case: Fools proceed.
1. yes this is clearly an advert, and Mashed is in violation of FTC and FCC regulation as they aren't disclosing it as such in the video itself or the body of the description above the "see more" break... I have no doubt that Mashed isn't getting paid to make this video. 2. YES! Omaha Steaks are garbage, they say they are whole muscle cuts of meat, but if anyone has ever taken the time to look at the meat you get, their steaks are made with trimmings and use meat glues like transglutaminase and fibrinogen/thrombin, solid muscle cuts don't break up the way Omaha's offerings do.
Around five years ago I worked at Dearborn sausage in Dearborn Michigan for like a week. We were packing sausages in Omaha steak boxes I was confused but didn’t care enough to ask this mad me remember now I’m wondering if they just outsource ever meat that isn’t steak 🤔
My wife ordered steaks from Omaha steaks. We were on a fixed budget so I thought this would be a rare treat. What a big let down. the meat was average and the cuts were so small that you needed to take several portions to make a meal. Also I will never buy from Omaha , They are over priced and the steaks are very small. Not worth the money.
charlie -- So how much meat do you eat at one sitting???? I have never had the experience you have... Did you not read the descriptions (they go by ounces), and order them in the first place that way??? Sounds like you are just a troll or something..
The food industry is horrible to animals and Omaha Steaks is NOT different. Eat food that is the result of animal suffering is like the person is to swallow the suffering of animals.
Because of the pandemic I ordered for myself and my 2 daughters. I found it expensive but the commercial looked delicious. I got mine and everything was so small- there was nothing special about the taste either and some of the items were pathetically small-nothing like it looked in the commercial. Where was those big juicy steaks- so disappointed! Not even close to worth it and way overpriced for what you get. Buyer beware-dont believe those commercials!
I’m a little surprised at so many favorable comments. I had a relative that used to send the Omaha “selection” to family members each Christmas. After three years of getting tiny portions of meat that was worse than what we could get a the local grocery store we had to diplomatically as that he stop sending it.
I know a guy who just retired from Omaha Steaks after 30 years, he refuses to eat anything from his former employers, he said it’s not even choice grade meat, it’s packer grade or less!!! Just a bunch of low grade crap pumped full of chemical tenderizer and fake flavorings, don’t waste your money, just go to your local butcher shop and get their prime angus beef steaks, I won’t even feed my dog or cat that crap!!!🤮🤮🤮
Like others here, I tried OS Filet about 25 years ago. It appears they are still just as mediocre today. These were not even as good as my local supermarket choice beef. Was pissed as they are a premium price. These are the Bose speakers of the meat world - all advertising and no substance.
My wife ordered some steaks from Omaha and honestly I have to say they were not worth the money. They were lousy. I have had better steaks from the supermarket. I won't be ordering any thing from them anytime soon.
Thank You. That you can. Tired of seeing comments on here saying their meet is tough. They just don’t know how to cook it right. I’ve been working for Omaha Steaks for over 11 years. Love their steaks, period.
Great story of the family history. Another great example of Americanism! Glad the family is keeping it a privately owned, family business. They then do not have to worry about being PC so as not to hurt someone’s feelers.
How do you like your steak?
Medium rare 🤷
medium well
A good medium rare.

@@mikewhite4466 I agree, I get quality ribeyes, flank and roasts at reasonable prices. Apparently they hired experienced butchers...no red dye in their beef like Walmart!! Plus, I like to personally select the meat I buy and not take a chance of ordering meat by mail ordering. I shop at the new Frys grocery store here in Apache Junction, Az. I was so pleasantly surprised by the quality meat market in this store. I always look forward to shopping here.
Has to be better than Trump Steaks though, no?
this felt like a paid ad.
Every time I think about ordering from them, I check their prices which are way too high, and just say no.
RATHER BUY LOCAL , FRESHER , SUPPORT YOUR COMMUNITY 🤗🤗🤗
Yeah local where it’s all nasty
Omaha steaks paid for this video....
I'll save you the time: it's just an 11 min advertisement for Omaha steaks.
I wasnt that impressed with them. Very average meat for a premium price. You can get much better steaks at sam's club. One thing that is very telling about omaha steaks is they dont have a USDA grade like choice, select, or prime. They dont want you to know that. They say they use their own grading system. That's like letting students in a class grade their own papers...
A+
Don't want any walmart meat! I trust THEM less than probably any other company out there!
Yeah right, Sam's club... Sam's Club sells USDA choice meat, it isn't even USDA prime. You shop at Sam's for cheap meat in extremely large portions, admit it!
I received a package of steaks and assorted beef as a holiday gift. It was decent, but not anything better than my local butcher or local grocery store. Plus they are priced higher.
Is this an ad? Best value steak is Costco USDA prime if you can get it.
Costco is a great deal. My favorite place to buy meat.
I couldn't agree more I ask for whole slabs of meat like a whole roll ribeye and the price was 11.30$ a lb for prime that's half the price of if they butcher it. But I think sometimes maybe omaha steaks is worth the free steaks they do say money back guarantee... not sure if its true but for free I'll eat a lower grade steak lol.
True Story 💯
This is just an advertisement unfortunately.
"Untold Truth" = Gushing Advertisement. Ignore.
Just a SLICK ADVERTISEMENT!
I have a freezer full of Omaha steaks and other products from them. And after watching this I will buy exclusively from them for now on.
Scott Hill - you and me both... Loved them for 18+ years..
All these liars are just that...
Definitely not ordering anything from this company. Thanks for the info.
I'm glad to hear that they did the right thing.
Hello Diania how are you doing. I believe you are safe and in good health.
I live in Omaha and I can’t tell you how many people are proud of Omaha steaks 😆
So funny that this video comes out just after I made my first ever order from Omaha Steaks! It just came in, so I’ve only tried the Key Lime Tarts (which are really good!) but the burgers and beef meatballs I haven’t had a chance to try yet. I have some of the burgers defrosting so going to put them on the grill later today!
What's the verdict?
I was lucky to try beef tenderloin from Omaha steaks and it was just ok. Definitely not worth the expensive cost.
I enjoyed their products, but...and this was several years ago..the phone calls, emails, and regular mail drove me nuts. I cancelled.
Their Filet mignon is wonderful! Always fresh, tender and plentiful! It's our "go to" whenever we order.
I've eaten (once) an Omaha Steaks Rib Eye, given to me by a friend. While I will admit it was definitively a good steak, I would not personally order one (or more) because :
•They're a little pricey...
•You don't get to choose the actual steak you purchase, just the cut you want...
•I'm not totally sold on shipping of perishable products with short lifespans...
•I was raised on beef that was raised locally and purchased as 'a side of' or a 'front/hind quarter'...
•Lastly, there are certain cuts I use that we're not available from Omaha Steaks...
Best honest opinion i have seen on this product thanks
Tommy Saulter -- Well, I have been letting them choose the cut I pick and I have never had a bad one in 18 years.... Have grilled a zillion of them on my Weber outside and they always taste great... Their seasonings I also use and they are also super... I believe you can now order bigger pieces of meat like you mention..
I Like Everything that you wrote Very Good Writer.
got this once for a gift....told giver no thanks...the meat was tough and the portions were tiny.
FINALLY SOMETHING THATS NOT ABOUT COSTCO..
You just revealed how much you DON'T know about beef. Omaha will sell you a tenderloin that is below choice or prime for over $48/lb plus shiping. Costco will sell you a choice tenderloin for around $20/lb (which will walk all over the Omaha steak) and a prime tenderloin, astronomically better, for around $25/lb. Plus, most of the beef you find at Costco reveals nice aging (pale pink, not bloody, firm) as opposed to the gray looking meat you tend to get from Omaha. There is simply no comparison. I am not trying to shame you for your choices, but I AM trying to shame you for not knowing what you are talking about.
You can draw your own conclusions but both you and I know right now: you know nothing about how to choose a higher quality product for the price you are paying.
I sure hope they hooked you guys up for making such a great commercial! 😉 great vid, as usual!
Aren't these steaks frozen? I'm not trying to be a food snob, but why buy frozen when you can buy fresh locally?
Even if they aren't frozen, you have to buy a big assortment from them and unless you are living in the movie "Cheaper by the Dozen" you'll have to freeze your purchase to avoid throwing it away. A more sensible option is as you stated, whenever you want a steak, go buy it locally.
@@taylorsessions4143 Excellent point.
Fresh? check how steaks are processed. Wet aged beef is 10 day old near freezing temps dry aged is 30-90 days else it's like chewing leather.
Aren’t you gonna freeze it anyway
@@danc2014 I respect your point, but it comes down to molecular biology. One of the things that makes water such a unique molecule, is the unlike most others, it actually starts to EXPAND as it comes with a few degrees of it's freezing point. Since most cells are filled with water, this causes damage to the cells and therefore the meat.
But you make a good point. 10 days isn't "fresh" but when I said "fresh" I simply meant not frozen.
Used to order and eat these steaks until the quality slipped and the prices went up at the same time. Excellent marketing, though. I order now from other, better mail order meat companies. May try Omaha again one day...maybe.
I have had their gift packages several times. I have yet to have one steak that was not tough. Overpriced. I would not purchase their products with my money. For the price, small portions. JS
Must not have cooked it right. Mine is so tender, I can cut mine with a fork. The crap you buy in the grocery store is garbage to me.
We were regular customers of their store in Chicago. The manager specials were good bargains. Unfortunately, they closed the store. I miss them.
@iron man I am along time customer at Peoria Packing. The prices are amazing and I never leave without the smoked turkey.
I wasted my money on some Omaha steaks once. They were so thin you could have read a newspaper through the steaks. Quality was mediocre at best and I can't understand how they keep enough new customers coming in to stay afloat. I honestly can't imagine anyone orders from them twice.
My mom sends me their chicken and pork which is individually packed. It is super handy to have around especially since the food shortages from the pandemic. Couldn't find chicken for weeks
if you dont have any local stores around... Ok fine i can see you spending money this way... However 50 dollars a lb or more for steak... is ridiculous . If im gonna spend that kind of money... im going out to a local steak house for a night out. I lIke their steaks... but they never used to cost this much. Years back i was spending about 1/2 what they are charging now and getting way more. Ill go to costco or sams club if i need a large amount of steaks at once.
This is advertisement! It should be disclosed
? My daughter ask, "Dad what about Omaha Steaks?""Well they were good at one time but money got in the way." I still feel that way today. It was a one time a good product for a good deal. Like many of the comments below I have found my local butcher will offer me a high quality product for a better price. If I want to go the store chain HEBs offers Prime Beef!
You can find American Kobe ribeyes, MY strips, and sirloins at some HEB's
@@jacobriojas4267 That's racist! HAW HAW HAW!
Only tried them once and was totally disappointed. Tough cuts of beef. Not worth the money.
Fred Reim --- perhaps you dont know how to prepare a steak?? Your kitchen knife was not sharp??? Never ever had your "experience" in over 18 years....
Answered all my questions about Omaha Steaks, but not going to shop. Very good video
This is an infomercial.
Yep!
Their 6 oz Private Reserve burgers are good. So are the 5 oz gourmet burgers. Try them in an air fryer from frozen. Avoid the 4 oz burgers. Stick with the bacon wrapped fillets. I've tried a few of the skillet and crock pot meals and liked them all.
They are pure marketing. Their steaks are no better than a select or choice cut you can get from a grocery store. But you'll pay like the cows were imported from Mars.
I have had seven different deliveries of different special assortments during Covid. They have been totally great! The apple tarts are eaten the day they arrive! I have no idea what these haters are talking about.
We've tried their steaks many times. They were Bad! Not good.
Over priced, you get a total of 3 lbs of meat not just steaks 4 tater tots basically and those nasty apple tarts you mentioned an additional pound for $60.00. 4 divided by 60 is $15.00 / lb and a pound is tater tots and a dollar dessert at best. It's highway robbery and down right insane to pay that kind of money for convenience.
@@haleroofing8150 Ours was poor quality
Catherine Houser Easier and cheaper to make your own apple tarts.
@@captainamericaamerica8090 I wasn't impressed with anything from the package, and a 4 oz. steak isn't even an appetizer gotta be 16 to 20 oz and a real tater.
Best burgers. No I mean NO grit or gritty taste in the burgers like the burger from the chain super markets! Might be more but so much healthier, smooth taste than any meat out there to buy! My brother in law loves there hot dogs. My sister needs to buy hoagie rolls to put the hot dog in. What does this tell you? Must give this company a try, should be on your bucket list.
All Omaha Steaks products are DELICIOUS including their decadent desserts. Worth every penny and you get a free cooler that is perfect for keeping food fresh like on fishing trips.
Never had a good steak from them. Expensive and grainy.
Amen, amen and AMEN! Every steak was grainy and dry. Of course if you want them rare or medium rare it may be OK. But if you want medium, medium well or well, I would NOT advise you to buy them. Also as Jeffery said, they are just too expensive for what you get.
I will never try them again.
@@MrPatdeeee I'm sorry, something is wrong with you if you're getting a prime steak and cooking it more than medium rare...
@@nahor88 And who in the pluperfect hallelujah made you the expert?
@@MrPatdeeee Any professional chef will tell you to cook a prime cut of beef no more than medium rare. If you want it any more than that, go get a cheap ass shitty steak from Wal-mart.
Jeffrey Showalter - perhaps you do not know to to cook a great steak???
I have never had one "grainy" - what are you doing to them ??? Burning them???
Probably....
FUN FACT: Undesirable orders are return routed to various homeless shelters.... including the deserts and other items. I know this first hand... I actually heard some of the men complain, "filet mignon again?!"
They wouldn't feel those feelz about a ribeye.
The taste is superior to that of many stores and the meat doesn't come from the farms where animals are in cages.
If you got it, buy it... $$$
I already bought my Thanksgiving feast from them.
I started being a loyal customer of Omaha Steaks because of this pandemic 🥰 They kept my family fed while local stores shelves were empty and limiting food/meat purchases (if you could even find meat). Omaha kept my freezer full and my kiddos well fed. When I couldn’t order for several weeks, this sweet man called me and offered me a better deal & helped me out. I trust Omaha with my families food needs and will be a customer for the rest of my life.
I gift these all the time and have not had any issues.... They also have crock pot meals that are great
And you are paying more than double that you should pay for a better product. Be a smart consumer.
@@drk321 And you are just a troll for some slimy meat place like walmart???
@@frandanco6289 I don't even think Walmart sells steaks, at least where I live they don't. I will break it down for your ignorant ass even though I know I will be wasting my time on some internet dropout: Beef comes in eight primal cuts from a whole cow. These cuts are chuck, rib, loin (short loin and sirloin), round, flank, short plate, brisket and shank. MOST quality beef is graded by the USDA to determine its quality which will include tenderness and marbling. There are eight grades of beef but only the top three will EVER be found in a restaurant. Prime, choice and select. Anything lower than that and you are probably in a ghetto somewhere thinking you are getting a deal. Select is garbage! Choice is very good for the average consumer. Prime is expensive but worth it. Now you need to ask yourself why Omaha does not offer any cuts in any of these top grades? Maybe you don't know what you are talking about? Yep, I think that is the issue here. You paid a BUTTLOAD of money for some mealy steaks and you are so angry you are coming on this forum to insult anyone who knows better so you can justify your MISTAKE. Or should I say MISTEAK! Nitwit. Shoulda stayed in school.
11 ads in an 11:41 minute video??? 🤷♂️
As far as the subject of the video, I Enjoyed some Omaha Steaks meat about 20 years ago. It was Great.
I received Omaha steak box for Xmas,, complete garbage.. In the box was 5oz fillets, steak bites, chicken breasts, pork chops, hot dogs, ground beef and hamburger patties.. At first I was excited to see what was in the box, but once I realized that the fillets where the only actual cuts of steak I became very disappointed.. I would value the box at about $30. I ate 1 fillet, it was not great, The fillet had no marbling, and was a brownish tint to it instead of deep red. I also was very let down to think the Omaha steak co would send hotdogs in a steak box. I would not recommend buying one of these boxes. I wrote Omaha steak to ask If I could sent the box back and for them to refund my mom, waiting on their reply.
The styrofoam cooler are great, thats about it.
A commercial and a waste of time. Omaha doesn't tell what USDA grade or that the meat has been frozen.
How would u figure the meat would not be frozen when it has to be shipped?smh!!!
dalex17 it arrives frozen, so not sure why they need to tell you.
I didn't see a whole lot of marbling in that steak. I'd rather go to Wal Mart and get a nice piece of ribeye.
@@nickdeliso7026 Because it would be nice for the consumer to know they are frozen before they plunk the money down? By the time they are on your doorstep, it's too late. And before you say "Of course they would be frozen, they are shipped". No, there is a way of shipping chilled with dry ice.
@@Anon1mous Go ahead and buy the mystery meat at Crack-World... I will never purchase any meat from Crack -World..
Sometimes, there are great sales here and then, it is easier to buy here..
Once you eat any of their steaks, you will see why they have such a loyal following..
I ordered a few times from Omaha Steak and was completely satisfied. I tried to order later looking for deals, but the deals came with things that I do not like. Then UPS delivery guy stole my shipment! The same guy who stole my $350 printer! That was the last time I
ordered. I have no way to receive the shipment without being cheated.
wonder cat -- If you call them, they will make it right for you... Did you do that???
@@frandanco6289 Omaha Steak said because the food is frozen using dry ice, they cannot require a signature. But they were nice enough to send me a new shipment.
As for the printer, the UPS guy signed some name to pretend it was delivered. When he delivered the replacement printer, he did not ask for a signature (required). I looked it up online and it was the SAME signature!
The best steak I've had was a fresh Irish Angus sirloin steak mid rare. Way way better than Omaha steaks, like not even close.
Where could you find Irish beef? I mean could you order online? Irish cheese, butter everything is better
I lived in Ireland for 13 years, and any private butcher shop you go into has the farm or ranch listed on their board from where their meat is souced.
Best food I have eaten.
Mine was a bison steak in vegas
@@samsonkirkpatrick6996 Ireland
How much did it cost? Not every can afford super expensive steaks
Nothing special about their beef. If I want a nice steak I’ll pay a premium for Snake River Farms or 44 Farms, but Omaha is a joke.
Cheaper to buy beautifully marbled USDA Prime beef from Costco!
Andrew Dubose I agree bro
Costco does not have the same quality meats. I'm telling ya. Ive tried both and there is no comparison. That's my opinion. Costco may be a little cheaper but Omaha is way more tender and tastes like a good restaurant steak. Costco meats are always more like rubber.
Roger Brenon There is nothing special about Omaha Steaks. Is the beef from Omaha grass-fed? Exotic breed such as Wagyu? Grading? Omaha isn’t bad, but no way in hell it warrants the prices they charge.
Costco is cheaper then any supermarket I buy from I buy prime ribeye for 11$ a lb as long as I buy the whole ribeye roll which is not a big deal for me I love steak... however snake river farms is unsurpassed without question american wagyu that I literally dream of sometimes... I have bought easily 5000$ worth of their meat and will buy more every year on black Friday I have gotten up to 70% off total price using all the discounts at once and even the multi buy discount. Nothing from their I haven't tried even bought a whole roll ribeye from them and dry aged it still have steaks double vacuum sealed and frozen... pure wagyu and kobe are nice but too much fat to eat a whole steak solo american wagyu is the perfect mix of fat and meat..... nothing more I can say although I can talk about it for days lol... one last word.. pichanha... =)
Never had an Omaha steak that I know of. Always knew about them but can’t say I’ve had them. Just goes to show you how many people there are just in this country to keep this business alive after all these years.
I have been buying Omaha Steaks since 2002. I love their product offerings especially filet mignon and stuffed potatoes.
You need to get out more.
Best steaks I have bought.
Clickbait title. There was no "untold truth". Not even a single negative comment. Not even the fact that the minimum order is $99 and you pay shipping on top of that. Mediocre quality for premium prices.
This is clearly an ad. Aren't you supposed to disclose this? I don't see it anywhere on the video or article
Matt Gleason It DOES say "skip Adds " on my screen,but many times we have come close to ordering, but thought you can't choose your steak, just the cut. After hearing the majority, I will stick to local meat counters , at best customers are
giving Ohmaha Steaks a 50 -50 recommendation, not a very good showing for them. I just went to local market for some
Ribeye,bone in ,steaks ,for the 4th of July as a treat for our Family, $36.00 . I don't know what they would cost at OS but
they were wonderful ,I think we will stick to local markets !
2020 youtube advert policy has not made that clear yet..
@@ray095883 It's a regulation made by the FCC
I don't like them at all. I ordered Thanksgiving dinner for 4 adults and got the surprise of my life. A tiny ham, 4 mini cheesecakes, scalloped potatoes, and stuffing. I didn't try the stuffing because it was way too much of a hassle to cook. The potatoes were so nasty and it was airline portions. So tiny!!! More like feeding small children portions. The ham was tasty and the mini cheesecakes were so good!! Not worth the money for the dinner though and it put me in a bad bind for supper.
@small coffee You just called her fat in the nicest way. LOL!!
@Tony Brown I didn't realize HOGS eat BEEF
janet vargas -- did you NOT read the description of what you ordered first???
Geezzz...
I work at omaha steaks it's absolutely criminal how they run. They are terrible to their employees as well
Actually I wouldn't be surprised. You can them I hate their commercials and their food looks so awful! I will not be from them!
I hope they go out of business soon!
I got their meats for the longest time, I quit going to them, too much grizzle in it, steaks are way to tough, and prices are way to high.
Gristle, too.
I have to agree with you. It is not worth it. I have had tough deer meat that is better than this.
I buy Omaha products & have for many years. If this is a infomercial it is accurate. The best steaks I ever had. So i don't care what anybody says good or bad. I love Omaha Steaks. I don't buy any sides so I don't know about that. If any sides come in the packages I give them to my neighbor. I just want & usually get just the meat.♥️
i have not found them to be all that special, my room mate gets a pkg every xmas from his mom and he shares with me... my local grocery store is just as good and prob cheaper
OMAHA' STEAKS ARE NOT THAT GOOD. THEY LACK TRUE FLAVOR AND ARE LIKE AN OLD WORN OUT SHOE 😤😣😣
I’ve used this product many times over last 20 plus yrs. sometimes good, latest order of filets was a disappointment!
These taste and look like VERY processed steaks.
@@ryanm4013 They are not so much processed as they are overpriced and low grade.

Thank you Omaha for your kindness and generosity. I will definitely support your business.
I had bought them, mail order YEARS ago , was not impressed with the quality, or taste must be 30 years ago, MY SUPERMARKET sells BLACK ANGUS, & GRASS FED BEEF from AUSTRALIA,,or NZ for not much more than regular beef , but COSTCO meat is good, but they also sell PRIME BEEF , tastes better than OMAHAH STEAKS., AND LESS $ Cheers 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Flyby Airplane my father used to buy Omaha steaks. Nothing exceptional about the steaks except high price. I’m happy to go to Costco and buy prime steaks. Omaha now sells a lot of overpriced side items. Omaha is all about the marketing.
Nice to see a smart consumer!
I've ordered for 25 years--For the price and the convenience, I think they are excellent!
Low grade steaks at high grade prices! What could possibly go wrong?
@@drk321 And you know this how????? Quit trolling and go get your binky...
@@frandanco6289 Go to the Omaha site and TRY to order a choice or prime graded steak. You will fail because they don't offer them. They offer lower grades, probably lower than select which is bordering cat food. But you don't even know the difference. That's OK, keep them in business. And let me guess, you also have ordered Ginsu knives on line thinking they are fine cutlery?
@@frandanco6289 "And you know this how????? "
I know this because you can get a choice graded tenderloin, which is a higher grade than Omaha offers, for $20/lb (MAX). Omaha tenderloins are a lower grade than choice and they will charge you around $48/lb.
THAT is how I know this Einstein!
Buyer beware. Or in your case: Fools proceed.
You can say I have ordered Omaha Steaks twice.....my first and last...
And "THE UNTOLD TRUTH" remains...........untold.
What is this?? My steaks arrived to me brown! Not high quality below supermarket quality. I bought from them 2 times disappointing both times.
Did Omaha’s PR literally write this voiceover? This is a joke and should have been disclosed as an advertisement.
This is a straight up advert for a really garbage quality of meat. Do not give it as a gift.
1. yes this is clearly an advert, and Mashed is in violation of FTC and FCC regulation as they aren't disclosing it as such in the video itself or the body of the description above the "see more" break... I have no doubt that Mashed isn't getting paid to make this video.
2. YES! Omaha Steaks are garbage, they say they are whole muscle cuts of meat, but if anyone has ever taken the time to look at the meat you get, their steaks are made with trimmings and use meat glues like transglutaminase and fibrinogen/thrombin, solid muscle cuts don't break up the way Omaha's offerings do.
Jennifer Slattery only if you want to end a relationship,not if you want a piece of tail! Of course I’m speaking of poor man’s ossa buco.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I lost my virginity in 1992.
I’ve had their steaks 2 times. I was disappointed both times. I started thinking that it’s mediocre product with great advertising.
Around five years ago I worked at Dearborn sausage in Dearborn Michigan for like a week. We were packing sausages in Omaha steak boxes I was confused but didn’t care enough to ask this mad me remember now I’m wondering if they just outsource ever meat that isn’t steak 🤔
My wife ordered steaks from Omaha steaks. We were on a fixed budget so I thought this would be a rare treat. What a big let down. the meat was average and the cuts were so small that you needed to take several portions to make a meal. Also I will never buy from Omaha , They are over priced and the steaks are very small. Not worth the money.
charlie -- So how much meat do you eat at one sitting???? I have never had the experience you have... Did you not read the descriptions (they go by ounces), and order them in the first place that way??? Sounds like you are just a troll or something..
The food industry is horrible to animals and Omaha Steaks is NOT different. Eat food that is the result of animal suffering is like the person is to swallow the suffering of animals.
Because of the pandemic I ordered for myself and my 2 daughters. I found it expensive but the commercial looked delicious. I got mine and everything was so small- there was nothing special about the taste either and some of the items were pathetically small-nothing like it looked in the commercial. Where was those big juicy steaks- so disappointed! Not even close to worth it and way overpriced for what you get. Buyer beware-dont believe those commercials!
I’m a little surprised at so many favorable comments. I had a relative that used to send the Omaha “selection” to family members each Christmas. After three years of getting tiny portions of meat that was worse than what we could get a the local grocery store we had to diplomatically as that he stop sending it.
Arlen Bell, - so what do you do, sit down and consume a side of beef or something????? Wow !!!!
I know a guy who just retired from Omaha Steaks after 30 years, he refuses to eat anything from his former employers, he said it’s not even choice grade meat, it’s packer grade or less!!! Just a bunch of low grade crap pumped full of chemical tenderizer and fake flavorings, don’t waste your money, just go to your local butcher shop and get their prime angus beef steaks, I won’t even feed my dog or cat that crap!!!🤮🤮🤮
Like others here, I tried OS Filet about 25 years ago. It appears they are still just as mediocre today. These were not even as good as my local supermarket choice beef. Was pissed as they are a premium price. These are the Bose speakers of the meat world - all advertising and no substance.
These steaks are DOUBLE premium price at half the quality. Double whammy.
You can get a much thicker steak at the store and the quality is very good and you’ll save a lot of $
My wife ordered some steaks from Omaha and honestly I have to say they were not worth the money. They were lousy. I have had better steaks from the supermarket. I won't be ordering any thing from them anytime soon.
They are a good American company. I think I will order some this fall and give it a try.🇺🇸🇺🇸💕
Great Story! Thanks for sharing the story.
Wasn't aware this was a 11+ minute commercial.
I am a great fan of Omaha Steaks and love their meat, fish, and extras. You actually can cut a tender steak with a fork!
Thank You. That you can. Tired of seeing comments on here saying their meet is tough. They just don’t know how to cook it right. I’ve been working for Omaha Steaks for over 11 years. Love their steaks, period.
They were good and flavorful but I haven't bought any for years
Great story of the family history. Another great example of Americanism! Glad the family is keeping it a privately owned, family business. They then do not have to worry about being PC so as not to hurt someone’s feelers.
Yep those "feelers" alright haha
