USDA Prime represents the upper 2-3% of all domestic cattle. USDA assigns the quality at the time of slaughter by the degree of marbling on the ribeye. Prime has more marbling, which in turn increases the flavor and tenderness characteristics. USDA Choice Meat is the next level of superior meat grading. We offer a wide selection of USDA Prime cuts. For those who enjoy the finest things in life, PRIME is the best you can buy! The Black Angus breed is known throughout the world for delivering a phenomenal eating experience with rock solid consistency. Upper 2/3 USDA Choice, hand selected for ideal marbling. Only the top 10% of our already superior cattle make the cut. Aged minimum 14 days for maximum tenderness.
