Arby’s is introducing a twist on the classic comfort food that is the chicken nugget.
The chain known for its “we have the meats” slogan debuted Steak Nuggets, described as “tender, juicy, hand-cut bite-sized pieces of steak seasoned with garlic and pepper for a bold, smoky flavor.”
Steak lovers can enjoy the protein bites as a nugget entrée, in a sandwich or in a bowl.
“Who doesn’t love tender and savory steak? But, until now, it’s been inconvenient to eat, particularly on the go,” said Arby’s Chief Marketing Officer Jeff Baker. “That’s why we created this new innovative product. Two of America’s favorite foods – nuggets and steak – combined to create Arby’s Steak Nuggets. No knife needed, fork optional.”
The steak nuggets entrée is available in a five- or nine-count with Hickory BBQ sauce for dipping. The Steak Nugget Sandwich features Havarti cheese, crispy onions, tangy pickles and mayo on a bun. Arby’s Steak Nugget Bowl features creamy white cheddar Mac ‘n Cheese topped with crispy onions.
Earlier this year, Arby’s began testing the Steak Nuggets in select cities in the midwest and southeast. Now, Arby’s customers nationwide will be able to try them — but only for a limited time.
