Good meat can be hard to come by, and even the most refined restaurants still get it wrong. But meat retailer Omaha Steaks has dedicated the last 100 years to providing only the best, top-quality meats to customers across the country, according to the company, and the popularity of their products, which can be bought online or in-store, most likely speaks for itself.
After escaping religious persecution in Latvia and immigrating through Ellis Island, a father and son duo, J.J. and B.A., settled in Omaha, Nebraska, and started their own butcher business in 1917 called Table Supply Meat Company. In 1929, B.A.'s son, Lester Simon, joined the company, and their Nebraska beef skyrocketed to popularity. The meat was sold on cross-country trains and covered the pages of magazines at the time. By 1966, the company changed their name to Omaha Steaks International, and it's became a celebrated household steak name ever since.
