"Online service is the next step in delivering superior beef to customers who can share their passion for steak as the perfect celebratory gift."

The Certified Angus Beef ® brand, which is the only brand of beef owned by the American Angus Association® and its more than 30,000 rancher members, is offering an elite selection of steaks and gourmet frankfurters. Steak selections include tender 8-ounce Certified Angus Beef ® filet mignons, full-flavored 12-ounce Certified Angus Beef ® strip steaks and robust 10-ounce Certified Angus Beef ® ribeyes. All cuts are available in packages of four to six steaks and begin at $74.95.

Also available for consumers: Certified Angus Beef ® brand Prime and Certified Angus Beef ® brand Natural strip steaks and filet mignons. The brand's Prime selections appeal to the most discerning taste buds, with less than 1.5% of steaks qualifying for the elite Prime label.

In addition, both the Prime and Natural lines must meet all of the Certified Angus Beef ® brand's 10 strict quality standards, ensuring consumers enjoy only the best Angus beef.

Each order is fresh frozen, vacuum sealed and covered with a durable polyethylene film to ensure the highest quality before being shipped in a gift box inside in a reusable insulated cooler. For information and ordering, visit http://www.certifiedangusbeef.com/order.
