The short version: Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. We only recommend products we would genuinely use ourselves. Our editorial opinions are not for sale.
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255), FingerSteaks.com discloses that this site contains affiliate links and participates in affiliate advertising programs.
When you click an affiliate link on this site and complete a qualifying purchase, we receive a commission from the retailer. This commission comes at no additional cost to you — the price you pay is the same whether you use our link or navigate to the retailer directly.
FingerSteaks.com participates in the following affiliate programs:
FingerSteaks.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.
We participate in Crowd Cow's affiliate program. When you purchase beef through our Crowd Cow links, we earn a commission. Crowd Cow is recommended because of their sourcing standards, not because of the commission.
We participate in ButcherBox's affiliate program for the same reason — we recommend their beef delivery service because the product quality is consistent with what this site is about.
Snake River Farms is an Idaho-based beef producer. We participate in their affiliate program and recommend their American Wagyu cuts for finger steaks when budget is not a constraint.
Additional programs may be added as the site grows. This page will be updated to reflect any new affiliate relationships.
Affiliate links on this site include:
Not every outbound link is an affiliate link. Links to recipe resources, historical references, and informational sites are not affiliate links and generate no income for this site.
Every product recommended on this site is evaluated on its merits for the specific task of making Idaho finger steaks at home. The recommendation comes first. The affiliate relationship comes second — or not at all, if the best product for the job doesn't have an affiliate program.
We do not accept payment for positive reviews, guaranteed placement in buyer's guides, or any other form of sponsored content that is not clearly labeled as such. Affiliate commissions do not influence which products are ranked first or described favorably. The Lodge Dutch Oven is ranked #1 on the deep fryer guide because it genuinely performs better for this specific dish, not because of the commission rate.
If our recommendation changes — because a product is discontinued, a better option becomes available, or our testing produces different results — we update the content regardless of the affiliate relationship.
This site also displays advertisements through Google AdSense and may participate in other display advertising programs. These ads are served by third-party networks and are distinct from the affiliate links described above. For more information on how advertising data is used, see the Privacy Policy.
