The most expensive steak among sirloin, ribeye, grass-fed, and grain-fed is sirloin.

For the same cow, the common steak prices are arranged from low to high: top brain, tendon, shoulder blade, sirloin, short ribs, rib eye, and filet. ?Most people are concerned about the price of sirloin, naked eye and filet. In fact, sirloin is very cheap. Do you know which ones are the best-selling ones here? The best sellers are tendon, short ribs, and ribeye. ?Is it surprising? Sirloin filet is so famous, but it just doesn't sell well. What a weird situation has arisen? When a large wholesaler sells to the outside world, if you buy a box of ribeye, you must also buy a box of sirloin and filet.

I have copied and pasted the section about grass-fed and grain-fed countless times, so I decided to copy it again for the first time. Let me first tell you what grass-fed cattle and grain-fed cattle are. Before I started working in the industry, when I first heard this word, I kept thinking, grass-fed is so natural. Grain-fed is artificially fed, so grass-fed must be higher quality and more expensive. In fact, just the opposite. That's it. Grass-fed means that the calf eats grass all the way from the lactation period to the young cow. If it is slaughtered at this time, it is a grass-fed cow.

Due to unbalanced nutrition, this kind of cattle is relatively thin, and the meat on the cattle is hard and tastes relatively bad. In fact, the cattle are not very old, but they look very old when they eat, and it is difficult to chew. Grain-fed cattle means that the cattle are fed high-energy grains, corn and other grains before slaughter. These are relatively expensive compared to grass. The minimum standard of the grain-fed period is 100 days. Only after 100 days can it be called grain-fed cattle. .

So there are sayings of 150 days, 200 days, and 450 days of grain feeding. Interruption: Some students here mentioned why grain-fed is more expensive than grass-fed? This is a combination of China’s concepts of native pig and native chicken, and I feel there is no way around it. It should be noted that beef has obvious characteristics compared to the meat of other livestock such as pigs, that is, the meat is large, the fiber is thick, the meat is old, and the texture is not good, regardless of the aroma. Especially for cattle that only eat grass, the calories of grass are low. After the cows grow up eating only grass, the result will be that the meat is relatively poor and tastes bad. At this time, feed bean cakes and corn (foreign corn is very cheap, but more expensive than grass) for fattening for a period of time, which is called the grain feeding period.
