USDA Prime is the superior grade with amazing tenderness, juiciness, flavor and fine texture. It has the highest degree of fat marbling and is derived from the younger beef. That's why Prime is generally featured at the most exclusive upscale steakhouse restaurants. |
USDA Choice is the second highest graded beef. It has less fat marbling than Prime. Choice is a quality steak particularly if derived from the loin such as a tenderloin filet or rib steak. Generally USDA Choice will be less tender, juicy and flavorful with a slightly more coarse texture versus Prime. |
USDA Select is generally the leanest grade of steak you will find at a supermarket or restaurant. You will find it tougher, less juicy and less flavorful since it is leaner than Prime and Choice with very little marbling. The texture of Select is generally more coarse and is generally less desirable. |
For beef fajitas we recommend local beef fillet |
