As consumers seek Father’s Day gifting options more creative than yet another tie, some are buying their dads fancier cuts of meat as barbecue season gets into full swing. In an interview with PYMNTS, Reba Hatcher, chief commercial officer at ButcherBox, a direct-to-consumer (D2C) company selling both meat subscriptions and single-purchase gift boxes, explained that, where other gifting holidays see consumers purchasing more subscriptions, Father’s Day has many consumers buying one-time boxes. “Father’s Day is a super interesting time. It’s a combination of a holiday in and of itself but also the kickoff to summer,” Hatcher said. “[Gift shoppers] are looking for something [special.] So, our tomahawk steak or T-bone steak that’s going to have that wow factor. It’s a huge cut of meat

ButcherBox, a direct-to-consumer meat and seafood brand, has acquired Truffle Shuffle, a platform offering virtual cook-along experiences led by Michelin chefs. Founded by ex-French Laundry chefs, Truffle Shuffle enhances home cooking with its classes and ingredient kits. The acquisition, part of ButcherBox's strategy to integrate media and community, aims to improve cooking skills among its customers. Truffle Shuffle gained prior investment from Mark Cuban on Shark Tank, securing an 18% stake.

ButcherBox Acquires Truffle Shuffle

Butcherbox is known for grinding its way forward, bootstrapping to more than $600,000 worth of revenue. The company hasn’t traditionally been on the MA path, but it today announced it is acquiring Truffle Shuffle – who you may remember from a Shark Tank episode back in 2021 (or, perhaps, The Goonies). The acquisition helps Butcher Box customers get better at cooking – and potentially broadens the appeal (and product line) for more its customers.Truffle Shuffle’s goal is to make us home cooks feel like pros, which it does by offering easy-to-follow cooking shows. When I tried it out during the pandemic, I was struck how the company was able to make even pretty advanced dishes accessible and fun: with attitude and lots of little tips and tricks along the way, including breaks for making cocktails and dance parties where the home cooks show off how far into the process they are and how tasty the meals look as they are getting cooked. The companies declined to share the terms of the deal, but a spokesperson from ButcherBox confirmed that it was a cash-only offer.Bringing Michelin-star cooking to your kitchenAs ever, one of the most important parts of starting a startup is founder-market fit, and the two founders – Jason McKinney and Tyler Vorce –  have a hell of a story on that front: they met at Michelin-star-studded restaurant French Laundry, and decided to start a Truffle business.Truffle Shuffle chef Tucker Ricchio was the winner of Gordon Ramsay’s Next Level Chef.

However, the pandemic meant that they suddenly found themselves with $20,000 worth of highly perishable, premium truffles on their hands, and no open restaurants to purchase them.That’s when scrappy founders up their game. In response to these extraordinary circumstances, the team, made a pivot to direct-to-consumer sales and introducing a unique live cooking experience

As direct-to-consumer food providers compete to become more relevant in consumers’ day-to-day lives, ButcherBox is expanding its reach into pet food, creating more occasions for its customers. The D2C meat and seafood brand launched its ButcherBox For Pets line Feb. 27. ButcherBox founder and CEO Mike Salguero discussed in an interview with PYMNTS the opportunity that the space presents for the brand, given its human food customers’ high degree of pet ownership. “[B]efore we got in [the category], in our membership base, 60% of them have a dog and 75% report having a pet — a cat or a dog,” Salguero said. “…There’s a very large overlap, but [our pet food business] will be standalone, so it will bring in its own customers as well.”
