Serve up a steak that surpasses the quality of the beef prepared at most restaurants with this unique New York strip steak. Hand-cut by our Master Butchers with the bone in place for a striking plate appearance and more tender texture. Available in Black Label™ and Gold Label™ American Wagyu.
The New York strip is an iconic steakhouse favorite known for its rich beef flavor and satisfying firm bite. These special steaks feature beautiful marbling and exceptional taste, but achieve a delicious texture when we leave the bone in place. The meat next to the bone is insulated from the heat and emerges especially tender and juicy. Of course, the bone makes for a picture-worthy steak on your dinner table.
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 Grade and SRF Gold Grade both score above USDA Prime.
SRF Black Grade is a BMS of 6 to 8 with significantly more marbling than USDA Prime graded beef.
SRF Gold Grade registers a BMS of 9 or higher and contain the highest level of marbling we offer.
The New York strip is cut from the loin primal, which is between the rib and round. These steaks are cut from the longissimus dorsi muscle. this is the same muscle as the center eye of the ribeye. New York strips and ribeyes come from opposite ends of this same muscle.
The ribeye side of the longissimus is round in shape while the strip side is elongated. The muscle varies in more than shape from end to end. The amount of marbling is greater on the rib side and decreases on the loin side.
It's generally (but not unanimously) agreed that boneless strip loin steaks are called New York strips and bone-in steaks are called Kansas City strip steaks.
