May is Beef Month, and with Memorial Day weekend right around the corner, we're breaking down three cuts worth knowing at every price point.
Great beef doesn't have to mean the most expensive cut.
Budget: Chuck Roast
Cut from the shoulder, chuck is one of the most flavorful but isn't notoriously tender. It takes time to cook, but rewards your patience. Best enjoyed when cooked slow as a pot roast, shredded beef tacos, or slow-cooked sandwiches.
Mid-Range: Sirloin
A leaner steak with solid flavor that works for just about any occasion. Great on the grill, in stir fry, or sliced thin over a salad.
Premium: Ribeye
The ribeye is renowned for its marbling, which gives beef its flavor and tenderness. Best enjoyed simply, on the grill or in a cast-iron skillet.
Whatever ends up on your plate this Memorial Day, know how much care and time it took to get there.
That's worth knowing and celebrating.
