<\/a>\nThe original LaFrieda family recipe features hand-cut 100% black angus seared filet mignon topped with Monterey jack cheese and sweet caramelized onions, served with a secret au jus on a custom-made and toasted French baguette (see attached photo).<\/p>\n
The sandwich will be available in LaFrieda Meats\u2019 own stand in Taste of the City on the Field Level behind the centerfield scoreboard near section 139. This officially marks LaFrieda Meats\u2019 first and only retail location. Prior to Citi Field, LaFrieda\u2019s steak sandwich was only available to lucky family and friends.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are honored to be the first public venue to sell Pat\u2019s signature sandwich,\u201d said Jeff Wilpon, Chief Operating Officer, Mets. \u201cPat, with his long family history in the meat world, well-respected work ethic and choice of quality meats, is a perfect addition to the All-Star lineup of world-renowned restaurateurs and chefs at Citi Field.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cPartnering with the New York Mets to bring our steak sandwich to the fans at Citi Field is a dream come true for our family,\u201d says Pat LaFrieda. \u201cWhile at a game recently, I noticed a great steak sandwich was the only thing missing from the phenomenal food line-up, and thought our LaFrieda family recipe would be a perfect fit. We are honored to be able to open our first retail location at the home of the Mets where the Pat LaFrieda Original Filet Mignon Sandwich will take its place amongst the superior quality of food at one of New York City\u2019s most iconic venues.\u201d<\/p>\n
Pat LaFrieda Meat Purveyors will also supply Citi Field\u2019s Delta Sky360 Club and Acela Club.<\/p>\n
LaFrieda, known as the \u201cMagician of Meat,\u201d owns and operates New York City\u2019s most prestigious and valued meat packing facility, Pat LaFrieda Meat Purveyors, which supplies the finest restaurants in NYC, DC, Philadelphia, Ohio, Las Vegas, Miami, Chicago and more.
