This is a natural product. Please note that weights are approximate and can vary by +/- 0.5 pounds.
The USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) separates domestic beef into eight grades, based on intramuscular fat or marbling, and other qualities like tenderness, juiciness, and flavor. The two highest grades are Prime and Choice. Prime is the top grade on the USDA scale and features an abundant amount of marbling.
Snake River Farms produces beef that measures above the USDA scores. To grade these higher levels of marbling and quality, we utilize the 12-point BMS (Beef Marbling Score or Beef Marbling Standard) from the Japanese Meat Grading Association (JMGA). SRF Black™ and SRF Gold™ both score above USDA Prime.
SRF Black™ is rated a BMS of 6 to 8 with significantly more marbling than USDA Prime-graded beef.
SRF Gold™ registers a BMS of 9 to 12 and contains the highest level of marbling we offer.
The strip loin is a large cut (also called a subprimal since it is a portion of the larger loin primal) that averages about 14 pounds. The entire strip loin can be prepared as a roast, but we enjoy cutting it into both steaks and roasts.
For best results, cut the strip loin while it is still partially frozen. It's easier to cut clean, straight slices while the roast is firm.
Before cutting, fine the "sirloin end" by identifying a distinctive raised section. It's best to use this side for roasts because it contains connective tissue that breaks down when roasted.
Use the opposite side for cutting steaks. This is your opportunity to create thick 2" steaks that are usually hard to find in grocery stores.
Once you've cut your steak and/or roasts, prepare them as you would normally.
The strip loin is sourced from thelongissimus dorsimuscle located within the loin primal. This lengthy muscle starts in the rib primal and extends to the round primal.
The muscle of the strip loin is adjacent to the spine bone and on top of the finger bone so it is sometimes referred to as the top loin.

What Is SRF Black Label and SRF Gold Label?
All SRF products are American Wagyu. We use the Japanese Beef Marbling Score (or BMS) to measure the marbling present in the beef. Both SRF Black Label and SRF Gold Label grade above USDA Prime. The SRF Black Label grades between a BMS 6 to 8, and the Gold Label is the highest marbled with a BMS score at 9+. Read about the difference.
