"...Hands down, Double R Ranch is the best beef in the country." ~ Eric Hellner, Executive Chef, The Metropolitan Grill, Seattle, WA
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.
USDA Prime is the top grade on the USDA scale and features a moderately abundant amount of marbling. Only 5 to 6% of all U.S. beef grades at this high level.
USDA Choice falls directly below USDA Prime. Choice beef is high quality and has less marbling but offers an excellent value.
Double R Ranch USDA Prime and Choice New York strip steaks are rich with marbling and cut a full 1.5" thick. The Steakhouse and Reverse Sear methods work well with these steaks.
Be sure to completely thaw your steak before cooking.
Internal temperature is the most accurate way to know if your steak is done. Keep a good quality thermometer on hand.
Rest your steak at least 10 minutes before serving to let the internal temperature equalize and allow the juices to be reabsorbed.
Slice steak against the grain – 90° to the direction of the muscle fibers. This makes for a more tender bite.
Finish your steak with a light sprinkle of flaky salt for a nice presentation and an appetizing salty crunch.
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.
What is the difference between a New York strip steak~ a Kansas City strip steak and a shell steak?
A New York strip steak is boneless cut, sourced from the longissimus dorsi muscle towards the hind end of the steer in the area known as the short loin. It has a tight, firm grain that creates a texture that is firm, yet still tender. This steak has excellent marbling and a robust beef flavor. Generally, a Kansas City strip steak is considered the same as a New York, but geography, history and opinion can vary. Depending on who or what resource you consult, occasionally you will see that a Kansas City strip contains the bone. There is not universal agreement on this point and you will find most experts classify a Kansas City strip as boneless.
What is a shell steak?
A shell steak is a New York strip with the bone left in place.
