Grading
Grading
USDA Upper Choice - due to its naturally high marbling and intense flavor, the short rib comes from the short plate for a tender, flavorful bite — making a USDA Prime Grade less critical than in premium grilling cuts.
Cooking tips
Cooking tips
Grill / BBQ (Recommended)
Prep: Marinate for 4–24 hours. Korean-style marinades (soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger) work beautifully.
Heat: Preheat grill to high (450–500°F).
Cook Time: ~2–3 minutes per side.
Pro Tip: Sear quickly to caramelize the exterior while preserving a juicy interior. Do not overcook—medium-rare to medium yields best texture and flavor.
Broiler
Setup: Position oven rack ~6" from the broiler element.
Broil Time: ~3 minutes per side on a foil-lined tray.
Finish: Let rest for 2–3 minutes before serving.
Stovetop (Cast Iron or Griddle)
Heat: Medium-high to high heat until pan is smoking slightly.
Cook Time: ~2 minutes per side.
Enhancement: Finish with a brush of sesame oil or a soy glaze for added luster.

FAQ - USDA Prime Beef
What does USDA Prime mean?
USDA Prime is the highest grade of beef in the United States, based on marbling, tenderness, and overall quality. Only a small percentage of beef qualifies for this grade.
Is USDA Prime better than Choice or Select?
Yes. USDA Prime has significantly more marbling than Choice or Select, resulting in better flavor, tenderness, and juiciness.
Is all USDA Prime beef the same?
No. While all Prime beef meets minimum standards, quality can still vary based on sourcing, feeding, and handling. Well-sourced Prime beef will have better consistency and flavor.
What’s the difference between grass-fed and grain-finished beef?
Grass-fed beef develops deeper, more complex flavor, while grain finishing helps increase marbling and tenderness. A balanced approach delivers both flavor and texture.
How should I cook USDA Prime steak?
High heat methods work best:
- pan-searing
- grilling
- broiling
Allow the steak to rest after cooking for best results.
What temperature should I cook ribeye to?
For optimal flavor and texture:
- Medium-rare: 130–135°F
- Medium: 135–145°F
Avoid overcooking to preserve tenderness.
Can I freeze USDA Prime beef?
Yes. Vacuum-sealed beef freezes well and maintains quality when thawed properly in the refrigerator.
