I'd bet 95% of the US population has never even seen a prime steak...........and I wouldn't be surprised to learn most of that same 95% thinks "select' means it's a great steak.M-5 said:@Branded , what you fail to comprehend is there are far more lower class people that can not afford the places you mention. I have eaten at high end steak houses In my travels and a little out of the way place in South ga has them all beat hands down. There is a market for steaks but their is a bigger and more profitable market for the rest of the beef. And I would bet that 95% of the population could not tell the difference in select vs prime.
(I got a sale paper in the mail just yesterday for a regional grocer (Brookshire Bros) that was advertising T-bones and in big letters it said "USDA SELECT Grade!!" as if that was stickin a fat hog in the butt.)
