According to a press release, “Tyson Food Service offers new IBP® Ranch Steaks in its full line of affordable IBP® Everyday Steaks™ that provide a value alternative to traditional steak cuts. New cuts of meat such as the ranch steak were ranked the fifth hottest trend for 2009 by the “What’s Hot in 2009” Chef’s Survey from the National Restaurant Association®.”

“By menuing the lean and flavorful IBP Ranch Steaks, operators can offer a nice alternative to a top sirloin at a more affordable price point. Use as an ingredient in stir-fry, fajitas or even on skewers—IBP Ranch Steaks can be prepared on a grill, in a skillet or under a broiler, and are available in 4-oz., 6-oz. and 8-oz. sizes. Serve quality and consistency with the IBP brand, and offer customers a juicy, flavorful steak with USDA Choice premium-quality beef from the world’s largest beef processor.
