A Pork Chop That Rivals Beef Items on Restaurant Menus

Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin, January 12, 2005 — Introduction of the Bone-In and Boneless Pork Ribeye Steaks is the latest step in Calumet’s effort to provide consumers with a broader choice of pork options.  The two new USDA approved foodservice chops are ideal for family steakhouses to white table cloth restaurants.  Each of these tender and juicy Pork Ribeyes are a cost competitive alternative to the Beef Ribeye Steak.

“Pork is still the world’s most consumed meat, consumers regard pork as a delicious alternative to beef and different from the routine,” said Jerry Klein and Larry Becker, owners of Calumet Diversified Meats which is based in Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin.

In addition to offering a variety of frozen pork products, Calumet’s mission is to have an unwavering commitment to product quality, consistency and continuity that exceeds their customer’s expectations today and well into the future.
