About Choice beef chuck tender

USDA Choice is the middle of the three grades a foodservice buyer normally sees, above Select and below Prime, and it is assigned on marbling in the ribeye. Because grading happens on the carcass, it applies to every cut taken off that animal, which is why a Choice chuck tender and a Choice short loin share a grade and nothing else. In this group the cut does the work, not the grade: rib, short loin and hanger are steak muscles, chuck, top round and eye round are slicing and braising muscles.

Buying notes

These are quoted per pound on an average case weight, and the same muscle appears here in more than one state, bone-in against bone-out and peeled against untrimmed, with the price gap covering the yield loss and the butchery. Ask what the case actually weighed before you compare two quotes, because the average is the specification, not a guarantee.
