There are eight grades of beef: prime, choice, select, standard, commercial, utility, cutter and canner. Interestingly, only the first three are commonly sold at the butcher’s shop.
High grades represent high projected levels of tenderness, juiciness, and flavor. Marbling - is the intermingling or dispersion of intramuscular fat within the lean. Graders evaluate the amount and distribution of marbling in the ribeye muscle at the cut surface after the carcass has been ribbed between the 12th and 13th ribs.
Yield grade is determined by considering four carcass characteristics: external fat; kidney, pelvic and heart fat (KPH); ribeye area (REA); and hot carcass weight (HCW). The amount of external fat is measured at the ribbed surface between the 12th and 13th ribs. The ribbing of carcasses is described in the U.S. standards for beef grading.
A standing rib roast, also known as prime rib, is a cut of beef from the primal rib, one of the primal cuts of beef. While the entire rib section comprises ribs six through 12, a standing rib roast may contain anywhere from two to seven ribs. It is most often roasted "standing" on the rib bones so that the meat does not touch the pan.
A carcass grade is an assessment of quality for a culled cow or bull. The various grades are defined by the United States Department of Agriculture, and assessments are based primarily on the fatness of the cow to be culled. [1] Cows are culled from herds for a variety of reasons, including poor production, age, or health problems. [2]
