History
Established in 1973.
It all started in 1973 when Glen Rubenbauer - better known as "Rube" - opened up a tavern in the small-town of Montour, Iowa. His philosophy was to provide a hand-cut, quality USDA inspected, premium steak at a great price - and allow customers the experience of grilling it themselves.
Word of Rube's quickly spread and people couldn't get enough of beefy, flavorful Rube's steaks. Soon, customers wanted to buy Rube's steaks to grill at home and give as gifts to friends and family. So in 1992 Rube's Meat Company opened and began shipping fresh Rube's steaks nationwide.
Rube's Steakhouses have garnered a nationwide following and accolades from critics everywhere. And, the best part is anyone can now get a FRESH taste of the steak that made Rube's famous, simply by visiting Rube's Meat Company in Montour or by ordering online at www.RubesSteaks.com.
Meet the Business Owner: Michele A.
When my husband, Matt and I were dating in college, he took me home to visit his parents. They raved about this great little steakhouse out in the middle of the country where you get to grill your own steaks. I thought that sounded like the craziest idea in the world! Yet I was quickly won over. The entire experience was amazing from the packed lounge to the quirky "salad bar" set up on a folding table to the enormous brick grills where people grilled their steaks while enjoying lively conversation. LIttle did I know that just a few years later my husband and I would be on an adventure of a lifetime as owners of Rube's Steakhouse and Rube's Meat Company.
Since then we've made a few improvements and additions to our product line, but the quality of our steaks have remained the same. We take pride in providing delicious premium steaks along with friendly small town service. Rube's steaks are always shipped fresh, straight from the heart of Iowa.
