According to the Department of Agriculture there are different Grades of Beef:

• USDA Prime Beef
  • Grade of beef that contains the greatest degree of marbling.
  • Generally sold to finer restaurants and to some selected meat markets.
  • It is significantly higher in price because less than 3% of the beef graded is Prime.
  • Prime grade beef is the ultimate in tenderness, juiciness, and flavor.
  • Prime Rib is a USDA Prime rib roast for example, and many top steak houses serve only Prime cuts.
• USDA Choice beef
  • Choice grade beef has less marbling than Prime, but is still of very high quality.
  • The most popular grade of beef because it contains sufficient marbling for taste and tenderness, while costing less than Prime.
  • Just over half of the beef graded each year earns a grade of Choice.
  • Choice cuts are still tender and juicy.
• USDA Select beef
  • This is generally a lower priced grade of beef with less marbling than Choice.
  • Select cuts of beef may vary in tenderness and juiciness.
  • Select has the least amount of marbling, making it leaner than, but often not as tender, juicy and flavorful as, the other two top grades.
  • About a third of beef is graded as Select.
