From the cuts we serve to the way we season and prepare our steaks, we are now serving a more tender, more flavorful steak and a better overall experience that gives guests more reasons to keep coming back.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Whether guests are looking for bold flavor, exceptional tenderness or the perfect balance of both, Best Steaks Ever offers something for every steak craving:<\/p>\n<p>Down Under Delmonico Ribeye: A new, thick-cut ribeye with juicy tenderness, deep marbling and flavor-packed char.<br \/>\nNew York Strip: New to Outback, this steakhouse classic balances full-bodied flavor and tenderness.<br \/>\nVictoria\u2019s Barrel-Cut Filet Mignon\u00ae: Hand-trimmed and shaped for exceptional tenderness with a flavorful seared crust.<br \/>\nCenter-Cut Sirloin: Lean and flavor-packed with Outback\u2019s signature seasoning and sear.<br \/>\nRockhampton Ribeye: Marbled for rich, buttery flavor and an extra-juicy bite.<\/p>\n<p>Introducing Outback\u2019s Chief Steak Officer<\/p>\n<p>To help bring the story behind Best Steaks Ever to life, Outback has named Chef Efrem Cutler its Chief Steak Officer. With more than 45 years of culinary experience, he will serve as the brand\u2019s authority on steak selection, marbling, seasoning and preparation, helping guests understand what makes a truly great steak.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA great steak comes down to the details,\u201d said Chef Efrem. \u201cThe cut matters, but so do the marbling, trimming, seasoning and how you cook it. Best Steaks Ever is about bringing all of those pieces together, so every cut delivers what steak lovers are looking for.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Recent Outback research found only 41 percent of Americans feel confident in their knowledge of the differences between cuts. Ribeye delivers rich flavor, filet mignon is all about tenderness, New York strip offers a balance of both, and sirloin is a leaner cut that still brings plenty of flavor.<\/p>\n<p>Letting Guests Do the Talking<\/p>\n<p>Best Steaks Ever is built around a simple idea: let real guests tell the story.
