Hyatt Hotels and Niman Ranch Heat up the Grill with a New Summer Promotion Featuring Sustainable, Humane Beef and Pork

Niman Ranch, a national leader in sustainable agriculture and humane livestock practices, today unveiled a new promotion with the Hyatt Hotels Corporation to kick off the peak summer months in "farm to table" style. The announcement came on the first day of summer as families across the country are packing their suitcases for extended vacations.

"Hyatt hotels are heating up the grills and giving families and business travelers the best 'home grown' meals offered away from home. Niman Ranch steaks and pork chops are staples of any special summer dinner. Our beef is rated among the best in the country for marbling and taste with a consistent rating of over 97.3% upper choice and prime. Our pork is a top chef staple," said Kay Cornelius, vice president of food service for Niman Ranch. "We're thrilled that a leading hospitality company like Hyatt Hotels chose our sustainable and Certified Humane® brand for their summer grillig promotion."

The Hyatt menu is contemporary with a rustic feel to align with a summer farm to table theme. The menu offers three of Niman Ranch's most popular proteins: The 16 oz Pork Tomahawk Chop, 16 oz Rib Eye Steak and a ¾ Rack of St. Louis Ribs. The summer grilling promotion will run through Labor Day weekend.

"We're excited to offer this high-quality product that is sustainable and humane because it supports our philosophy of 'Food. Thoughtfully Sourced. Carefully Served.'," said Martin Pfefferkorn, Director of Culinary for Hyatt. "We are proud that our summer promotion is transparent in exemplifying where food comes from while helping to grow a network of independent family farmers." The promotion incudes chef visits to local Niman Ranch farms where applicable.

Hyatt Hotels Corporation, headquartered in Chicago, is a leading global hospitality company with a portfolio of 13 premier brands. As of December 31, 2016, the Company's portfolio included 698 properties in 56 countries.

With more than 40 years as an industry leader, Niman Ranch is a community of more than 720 independent family farmers and ranchers who raise livestock traditionally, humanely and sustainably to deliver the finest-tasting meat. All Niman Ranch pork, beef, lamb and prepared products are certified under the Certified Humane® program and available nationwide at both food service and retail locations.
