Local tips

Buying beef in United States

USDA grades

Prime has the most marbling, then Choice, then Select. Grocery stores mostly sell Choice; steakhouses and specialist butchers carry Prime.

Dry-aged

Aged 21 to 60 days in a controlled cooler. It loses moisture, concentrates flavor and costs more per pound.

Grass-fed

Leaner with a mineral, grassy flavor. Cook it a little less than grain-finished beef.
