Home Chef is a Midwest company; we're from Chicago and we're proud of it. Steak de Burgo is a Midwest dish, specifically Des Moines. We're not getting into some Illinois vs. Iowa rivalry here, we're just noting that a creamy, herb-y sauce enrobing a tender steak is delicious in any "I" state, and a few "M,", "S", or "T" states, too. It's delicious from the coasts to the Rockies, amongst amber waves of grain and the purple mountain majesty… you get our patriotic drift.
