Arby's launches nationwide Steak Nuggets for a limited time

Arbys rolled out Steak Nuggets nationwide on October 6, introducing a limited-time menu item of bite-sized, handcut steak pieces seared, smoked and seasoned with garlic and pepper. The chain said the offering is its first time serving steak in a nugget format and will be available at participating locations while supplies last.

Arbys described the pieces as tender, savory morsels designed for portability. Who doesnt love tender and savory steak? But, until now, its been inconvenient to eat, particularly on the go, Arbys Chief Marketing Officer Jeff Baker said in a statement. Thats why we created this new innovative product. Two of Americas favorite foods nuggets and steak combined. No knife needed, fork optional, the company added.

The Steak Nuggets are offered in three formats. The entrée is available in five- or nine-piece portions served with Hickory BBQ sauce and a fork. A Steak Nugget Sandwich stacks the seared steak with Havarti cheese, crispy onions, pickles and mayonnaise on a toasted bun. The Steak Nugget Bowl pairs the nuggets with white cheddar mac and cheese and a sprinkling of crispy onions for added crunch.
