Â* I saw no grade stamp , but it's all nicely marbled and has most of
the fat cap removed . The last time I asked I was told that the meat
they get in for these sales is all choice Angus though it's not
advertised as such . The yield of 1" steaks from that 10 lb strip was 16
nice steaks , 8 meals for the 2 of us at 5 bucks per . Can't get a steak
dinner anywhere I know of for less than 12 bucks a person ... and those
steaks are almost always smaller than the 10 oz average we got on this
piece .
