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 rolled cap of ribeye can be grilled or prepared in the kitchen. Here's an easy method using a skillet and oven:
Heat the oven to 300˚F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and top with a cooling rack.
Dry steaks with a paper towel and season generously with salt.
Heat a heavy pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add a generous coating of the garlic oil and heat until it begins to smoke. Add the steaks to the pan, increase the heat to high and brown for about 2 minutes on each side. Turn the steaks on their sides and using a pair of tongs, roll them to brown, about 1 minute.
Remove the steaks to the rack and place into the oven until the internal temperature is about 125°F. Remove from the oven and serve. Great with compound butter.
The cap of ribeye is the outer muscle of the beef ribeye roll, the subprimal where ribeye steaks and prime rib are sourced. This is located in the rib primal which covers ribs six through twelve and is between the chuck and loin primals. The specific muscle that make up this cut is thespinalis dorsi.
The cap of ribeye or spinalis is deeply marbled and extremely tender earning the name "the tastiest cut on the cow."
