Steak Cuts and Grades
Understanding Steak Cuts and Grades
Choosing the perfect steak can be a delightful yet overwhelming experience. Understanding steak cuts and grades is essential to ensure you select the right piece of meat for your cooking preferences. This guide will help you navigate the various cuts and their quality grades.


Steak Cuts Overview
Steak cuts vary based on the section of the animal they come from. Common cuts include Ribeye, Sirloin, T-bone, and Filet Mignon, each offering unique flavors and textures. Ribeye, known for its marbling, is rich and juicy, while the Filet Mignon is lean, tender, and often regarded as the most elegant cut.


Understanding Grades
Steak grades, determined by the USDA, indicate the quality and taste of the meat. The primary grades are Prime, Choice, and Select. Prime cuts possess significant marbling and are often found in high-end restaurants, while Choice cuts offer great flavor and tenderness at a more accessible price. Select cuts are leaner with less marbling, making them a healthier option.
