Welcome to the World Steak Challenge 2024. Since we launched in 2015, we have set out to deliver a recognised stamp of quality to support world-class steak production on a global platform. The World Steak Challenge gives steak producers from across the world a unique opportunity to benchmark product quality, breed credentials and processing standards on an international stage.
After nine successful years and with 25 steak-producing countries having participated, we're continuing to evolve the challenge to better reflect the industry. Last year we introduced grass and grain-fed winners for the fillet, sirloin and ribeye categories and this year we have four brand-new company-focused awards to hand out.
Securing a medal in the prestigious World Steak Challenge is a great opportunity to raise the profile of your business and open the door to new customers and opportunities. The World Steak Challenge generated over 1.2 billion opportunities to see via print & online press coverage in 2023!
Entries are closed for this year's Challenge, you can register your interest for next year's event now!
Judging Integrity
The World Steak Challenge prides itself on offering an independent, robust and fair judging process from start to finish. Integrity is at the heart of everything we do. Every steak is judged on its own merits against the internationally agreed judging criteria.
Stage One – Technical judging
All steaks are scored blindly on raw and cooked criteria by our expert panel of judges.
Stage Two – Scoring
All scores are totalled and the winners are verified by our judging panel.
Independent
The judging is independent and monitored at every stage. Every steak is judged on its own merits against the internationally agreed judging criteria.
Results
All steaks have the chance to win a gold, silver or bronze medal. The top-scoring steak will receive the coveted award of The World's Best Steak.
