One reason Outback Steakhouse is struggling is true of nearly all casual dining chains: competition. Outback needs to complete with different restaurants and different levels, and that's a tough thing to do.
The outback is a vast remote area in the centre of Australia: dry, arid and almost entirely uninhabited. During summer, the outback can get extremely hot and getting lost is dangerous - but experts insist that most deaths are preventable.
Bloomin' Brands (Nasdaq: BLMN) also owns the Outback Steakhouse, Carrabba's Italian Grill and Bonefish Grill restaurant brands. Bloomin' Brand acquired the Roy's brand in 2000. National Restaurant News reports that the company decided to sell the brand because it would get more attention under new owners.
The term Outback came about in the 19th Century. It was used to refer to places that were 'out the back of X (insert a place name). A similar term is 'back of beyond'. Basically, it's somewhere inland in Australia, a long way from the sea.
Outback uses USDA Choice cuts, where most high end steakhouses use USDA Prime cuts. Prime is a higher grade of beef than Choice, based upon the marbling, color, and texture of the meat. Outback also uses grain fed beef, whereas you can sometimes find grass fed beef in high end steakhouses.
OUTBACK. Steak makes up 60% of the Outback Steakhouse mix, says David Burns, joint venture partner with Outback Steakhouse restaurants in Oklahoma, Arkansas and Kansas. Outback's top-selling steak is the sirloin (35% of sales) and the firm is the largest retailer of Choice beef among U.S. restaurants.

Outback Steakhouse Parent Sets IPO. Outback Steakhouse parent Bloomin' Brands Inc. Such pressures have hurt Olive Garden parent Darden Restaurants Inc., which also owns Red Lobster and Outback competitor LongHorn Steakhouse.
When it comes to Italian food, I definitely prefer The Olive Garden over Carrabba's Italian Grill. Although Carrabba's has the Italian bread with herbs and oil, along with their manicotti that I enjoy so much, I would rather have The Olive Garden's unlimited bread sticks and salad as well as pleasant atmosphere.
