[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 7542, member: 13"] Yes, there are Choice, mid-Choice and high-Choice grades. Same with Prime and Select grades. Certified Angus Beef (CAB) is mid-Choice or better, as is EXCEL's Sterling Silver branded beef program. I think Outback sells Sterling Silver. Choice beef is more likely to be tender than Select. Consumers prefer marbled beef and Choice has more of that than Select. In my small town, we have to buy beef from a meat market to get Choice. Our supermarkets all sell Select beef. If the beef grade isn't printed on the label, chances are it's Select. Consumers pay more for Choice beef at the supermarket, packers pay more for Choice beef when they buy cattle from the feedlot on a grid, and the feeders are willing to pay ranchers more for cattle that they think will grade Choice.
