Know your beef

Three grades. Zero guesswork.

Fresh-from-Florida, grass-fed and grass-finished. Omega-3 rich — never given antibiotics or growth hormones.

The regular's order

Premium Choice

Best for: everyday steak nights

Upper 2/3 of USDA Choice, hand-selected. Superior marbling — the everyday steak that doesn't act like one.

Top shelf

Prime

Best for: nights worth remembering

The top 2% of all beef in the country. Maximum marbling, tenderness and flavor.

Beef Stu, founder of Beef Bootlegger
The man behind the vault

Every order gets Stu's eyes on it.

Beef Bootlegger is Stu Hartley — Tampa Bay's steak guy. He sources from local farms, cuts to your preference, and delivers to your door. He's been known to slip a gift in the box.

That's the difference between a meat company and a meat guy: one ships boxes, the other knows your name.

"The first time I had truly elite steakhouse quality outside an ultra-expensive steakhouse. Highest quality meat, at home, with our friends."

Randy Z. · Google review

"Steaks so good they became conversation starters. Multiple attendees asked for Stu's contact info before the cigars were given."

Cole C. · Corporate event host

"My kids will only eat Beef Bootlegger steaks — they realize store-bought is low quality. I give it a 12 out of 10!"
