Lobel's of New York is an online American butcher shop. It is known for its high-quality beef. The family business started with rancher Nathan Lobel in Austria in the 1840s. His grandson Morris emigrated to the United States in 1911 at the age of seventeen. Morris opened a brick-and-mortar butcher shop in the Bronx and later at the current location on Manhattan's Upper East Side, Lobel's Prime Meats, at 1096 Madison Avenue. Leon, Nathan, and Stanley, followed their father, Morris, into the family business. Lobel's currently serves elite clientele and celebrities such as Harrison Ford. [1] [2] [3] Lobel's products are not frozen and are shipped fresh overnight.
According to the Wall Street Journal , Lobel's has become synonymous with quality meat, particularly beef. [4]
Fourth-generation butcher Leon Lobel died in 2006, passing ownership to his younger brother Stanley, his son Evan, and nephews, Mark and David Lobel. The sixth generation [5] of family butchers entered the business in 2018: Mark's son, Brian Lobel; and Evan's daughter, Joanna "Joey" Lobel. [6]

A hamburger, or simply a burger, is a dish consisting of fillings—usually a patty of ground meat, typically beef—placed inside a sliced bun or bread roll. The patties are often served with cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, bacon, or chilis with condiments such as ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, relish or a "special sauce", often a variation of Thousand Island dressing, and are frequently placed on sesame seed buns. A hamburger patty topped with cheese is called a cheeseburger. Under some definitions, and in some cultures, a burger is considered a sandwich.
The T-bone and porterhouse are steaks of beef cut from the short loin. Both steaks include a T-shaped lumbar vertebra with sections of abdominal internal oblique muscle on each side. Porterhouse steaks are cut from the rear end of the short loin and thus include more tenderloin steak, along with a large strip steak. T-bone steaks are cut closer to the front, and contain a smaller section of tenderloin. The smaller portion of a T-bone, when sold alone, is known as a filet mignon, especially if cut from the small forward end of the tenderloin.
A cheesesteak is a sandwich made from thinly sliced pieces of beefsteak and melted cheese in a long hoagie roll. A popular regional fast food, it has its roots in the U.S. city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
