Steak Night Date Night

Schnucks has everything you need to make a delicious steak night – stop by our meat counter for top quality selection. Our Certified Angus Beef meets 10 exacting standards for mouthwatering flavor, tenderness and juiciness. Schnucks in-store butchers are always ready to cut your steak to order and answer any questions you may have!

Big Beefy Flavor

Strip steaks feature a good amount of marbling, which adds significant flavor and moisture to the cut.

Flavorful and Tender

T-bones make a great main course: two-thirds strip steak and one-third tenderloin, this cut combines flavor with tenderness.

Excellent Marbling

Ribeyes do not require much in terms of seasoning (although it certainly does not hurt). This cut stays more tender than most when prepared well done.

Tender With Mild Flavor

Best served medium rare to preserve melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Lean and Robust

This cut should be cooked to medium rare and sliced against the grain to maximize tenderness.
