- Certified Steak Prime
Superior Angus, high marbling, and aged; our Prime steaks are graded as the top 1% of all steak available. There is no comparison between a Certified prime and a commodity steak.
Why Our Prime is Superior
The Prime cuts of steak that we offer are graded as the top 1% of beef. Read below to fully understand why our Prime beats commodity USDA Prime - everytime.
Breakdown of USDA Prime
Dairy cattle comprise 31% of the USDA Prime box. Not ours; focusing on Angus-influenced cattle ensures superior muscling that delivers consistent plate presentations without compromising yield.
Outliers include “B”maturity and those cattle not meeting the sizing, quality appearance and tenderness of our specifications.
- “B” maturity cattle are harvested at 30-42 months of age. Cuts from younger, “A” maturity cattle, have superior tenderness, color, texture and firmness.
- Inconsistent sizing means more variation. Eliminating extremely heavy carcasses; exceptionally large and small ribeyes; and excessively fatty product equates to thicker, more uniform cuts.
- Safeguarding against capillary ruptures, dark cutters and Brahman cattle influence means each cut is tender, flavorful and ensures a consistent and high-quality appearance.
Our Prime is so exclusive
that it must pass nine more specifications than USDA Prime.
