Dairy Queen is offering a cheesy steak finger menu item, infused with creamy pepper jack cheese, for a limited time in Texas, according to a press release.

"The cheesy steak fingers are a must experience item before they disappear," Lou Romanus, CEO of the Texas Dairy Queen Operators' Council, said in the release. "Only found in Texas, we are confident the bold flavor of pepper jack cheese paired with our classic steak fingers will delights fans."

The cheesy steak finger country basket is served with crispy fries, Texas toast and ranch dressing. The combination is offered for a limited time via drive-thru windows, pick-up and take-out, as well as delivery and online ordering, where available.
