The 12 Best Steak Gift Boxes To Give Dad For A Top-Tier Father's Day

Dads, stepdads, and grandads are all awesome, but they can also be tricky to buy gifts for, especially on Father's Day. Birthdays and Christmas gobble up a lot of ideas, and how many personalized socks, T-shirts, and hats can one man own? If your dad has all the books he can ever read, all the beer or wine he could possibly drink, and years' worth of quirky trinkets gathering dust in the den, it's time to try something new: steak gift boxes.

Talking to a pro butcher can help us choose the best steak, but gift boxes do all the hard work for us. With the right supplier, they can be a top-tier, practical present that every foodie-loving father will adore, and — considering the fam may be descending upon the household to wish him a happy Father's Day — a great excuse to fire up the grill (as if we ever really need one). Even more enticingly, there are many different kinds of steak boxes out there, from customizable bundles to halal products and sustainable gifts. Keep in mind that prices and availability are current as of writing and may be subject to change. So, step away from the silly gadgets and, for the love of Pete's feet, don't buy any more socks. Instead, check out our pick of the best steak gift boxes for Father's Day.

Japanese Wagyu beef costs a pretty penny, but many argue that the home-grown version is just as good. Family-run, Idaho-based Snake River Farms produces American Wagyu that's served in some of the world's fanciest restaurants — and your dad can get his hands on it, too. Snake River Farms offers steak gift boxes for all budgets that are shipped throughout the United States, but for a truly top-tier Father's Day, plump for The Great Gift. It contains five doozy American Wagyu steaks: two ribeyes, two New York strips, and one cowboy.

Whether your dad, stepdad, or grandad is a novice grillmaster or is familiar with this underrated cut of steak, the folks at Herd 77 have got a gift for Father's Day that will fit the bill. You can create your own box by choosing from its range of mouthwatering products, from boneless ribeye to amazing sirloin. Whatever you select, don't let dad leave them in the fridge too long or they might spoil, and be aware Herd 77 currently only ships to the contiguous United States.

There are many iconic restaurants in Chicago, but they're not the only food-related businesses in the city. Also based out of Chicago, Allen Brothers has been producing well-reviewed meat for more than 130 years. Happily for anyone looking for a Father's Day gift that will delight the old(ish) man, Allen Bros. can also put together a curated meat bundle and ship it to wherever he is. Our lips are smacking at the prospect of its dry-aged steaks, which are hung for up to 45 days.

Halal food must be prepared in a particular way that meets Islamic food laws, but more non-Muslims than ever are enjoying it, too. One Stop Halal offers a wide range of Halal Food Standards of America-certified meats, and its Wagyu steak gift boxes could be just the thing for Father's Day. It contains goodies including burgers, ribeye, and taco meat, and reports indicate that they'll sometimes throw in seasonings as a nice bonus. Shipping rates vary depending on where in the United States the gift boxes are being sent.

If your dad, stepdad or grandad loves organic produce, they'll get a real kick out of a steak gift box from Force of Nature, which relies on the holistic principles of regenerative agriculture. Among its range is a Grill Master box, which comes in small, medium and large sizes, providing between 12 and 20 cuts of 100% grass-fed beef. True to sustainable form, its products are shipped across the U.S. in green cell foam containers.

Driven by one man's desire to find the best cuts of meat, ButcherBox has expanded across the country, expanding its range of gift boxes as it goes. Although it offers a Mother's Day one, there's currently nothing specific for dads — but there are plenty of products to choose from in order to make your own. Sticking with the top-tier theme of this selection, we'd plump for the Premium Steak Sampler or, if Father's Day is an excuse for a family get-together, the Great American Beef Box.

With the Great Plains on its doorstep and access to world-class beef, the steak gift boxes offered by the Kansas City Steak Company are tough to beat. You can buy a specific Father's Day steak sampler, which includes two 8-ounce filet mignons for just over $214, but we really like the look of The Big Daddy. Among its 12 cuts of meat are four 16-ounce T-bone steaks. Yummy!

There are lots of questions you can ask a butcher about prime rib and other cuts of meat, or you can get a steak gift box, and California's Holy Grail Steak Company has lots of savory gift ideas to choose from. If the man in your family loves his Black Angus steak but is partial to other meats too, this place has definitely got him covered with Kurobuta pork and racks of Sonoma County lamb. Just know that Holy Grail currently only ships to the lower 48 states.

If you've always wanted to give your dad the best Father's Day gift, this is your chance. The Wagyu Shop sells Japanese, Australian, and American Wagyu beef (among other delicious goodies), and its range includes five curated boxes. Its Premium product costs a downright reasonable $199, considering what comes in it, while the Connoisseur will let you really splash out. If you live in Hawaii, Alaska or Puerto Rico, orders over $250 don't qualify for free standard shipping.

Any steak gift box should always focus on the meat inside, but we love the fact Gibson's Steak Shop has gone a little further with three of its Father's Day offerings. Choose from a lollipop thermometer, a set of four steak knives, or a hard cooler as part of the meaty gift. If the man in your family doesn't need them, the no-nonsense Grill Box will be just the job. As for shipping, as of this writing, Gibson's only covers the lower 48 states.

There's a gift box to please every meat-loving father when it comes to the Jackson Hole Buffalo Meat Company's selection. It goes beyond a traditional beef steakhouse dinner with a Big Game selection and an Elk Season box for grillin' dads looking for lots of flavor. Dinner time on Father's Day and beyond will be a feast for the tastebuds. Jackson Hole does ship to non-contiguous states Hawaii and Alaska, though be aware that it costs a little more.

The folks at Wellborn 2R Ranch have spoiled us for choice with beef bundles that make for great Father's Day gifts. The Tailgate is a snip at just under $110, but if you want to go all out, your dad's eyes will pop at the Ultimate Grill Master (and not just at the $1,199 price tag). Shipping to Texas and Oklahoma is free for orders over $150, and over $250 qualifies for free shipping for the rest of the lower 48.
