Dazzle your dinner table with 12 USDA Choice ribeye steaks. Each steak is cut a full 1.5” thick and has an average weight of 1.1 lbs. These steakhouse quality beauties are as delicious as they look.
Practice perfection and preparedness with a generous supply of USDA Choice ribeye steaks. Each impressive steak is hand cut to a full 1 ½ inches thick. Since the ribeye section tapers, the exact weight of each steak will vary but we set 1 pound as the minimum. These are full ribeyes with the center eye and cap for a steak that looks appetizing and bursts with beef flavor. Just 3% of all beef produced in the U.S. has the large amount of marbling required to be graded USDA Choice, which ensures a wealth of memorable dinners are in store.
This steak is USDA Choice, the second highest level of marbling recognized by the USDA.
Beef sold in the U.S. is graded by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). There are eight total grades and Choice is the second highest level
The USDA describes Choice as “high quality, but has less marbling than Prime” which means our beef at this level is excellent. Whenever possible, we work to use beef from the top one third of Choice for the highest quality possible within the grade.
Marbling, or intramuscular fat, is the most important factor used to grade beef in the U.S. and around the world. This is determined by a visual inspection of the amount and distribution of intramuscular fat between the 12th and 13th rib. Historically, this single inspection provides a correct indicator of the entire carcass.
