CHICAGO — Pre® Brands, one of the nation’s leading grass-fed and grass-finished premium lean beef proteins, is pleased to announce the company’s first brand partnership with Celebrity Chef Britt Rescigno. Best known for her many television appearances as a culinary competitor and her Italian-focused cuisine, Chef Britt is partnering with Pre® this year to help consumers “Raise the Steaks” in advance of grilling season by sharing insights on how sourcing impacts the quality of beef and the simple truth that Not All Grass-Fed Beef is Created Equal. The collaborative partnership is designed to be the authority on all things beef throughout 2024 with a focus on grilling tips, recipes, social content and more.
“I grew up in an Italian family in South Jersey, so beef was always front and center – meatballs, roasts and steaks on the grill, which was my favorite meal as a kid. Beef is still a staple on my menus and in my personal kitchen today,” said Chef Britt Rescigno. “I’m a huge fan of Pre®‘s beef and appreciate the company’s understanding of the role that sustainable sourcing plays in producing a superior beef product. I’m super stoked to share my philosophy of beef cookery and make sexy food all year long.”
Pre® understands the importance of treating cattle holistically through their lifespan to minimize environmental impact and maximize beef quality. Pre®‘s beef is sourced from cattle that graze year round their whole lives on nutrient-rich grasses in New Zealand and Australia – these regions have some of the strictest standards and offer the best climates for superior flavor development. This commitment to a 100 % grass-fed and grass-finished, wet-aged process results in high-quality, great tasting lean beef products with transparency from pasture to package to plate. And, unlike grain-fed steaks typically raised on large, crowded feedlots, Pre®‘s steaks deliver superior nutrition—up to 31g protein per serving, up to 170mg omega-3s per serving, up to 377mg CLAs per serving, plus iron, zinc, and vitamin B.
“Partnering with Chef Britt was an easy decision – we admire her love of beef, her culinary talents and her passion for sustainable sourcing,” said Nicole Schumacher, Chief Marketing Officer, Pre® Brands. “Chef Britt is ready to grill up some fun for our consumers and partners all year long and we’re excited to educate consumers on how they can ‘Raise The Steaks’ with their beef this year.”
Pre®‘s better-for-you beef products are available in the refrigerated meat section at grocery and club retailers nationwide, as well as in ecommerce channels including Instacart and Amazon Fresh. Pre® is the nation’s #1 selling better-for-you steak* brand, with a line-up that includes Ribeye, Filet mignon, New York strip and sirloins. Additionally, Pre®‘s portfolio also features ground beef (95% – 5%, 92% – 8% and 85% – 15%), marinades (Korean bulgogi, sirloin and barbacoa flank steak), seasonal items (chuck roasts) and burger patties (85% – 15%, 92% – 8%).
