Choice vs. Prime Ribeye

Whether you choose choice vs. prime ribeye, there are a few key differences. For choice, there is less marbling, and for prime ribeye:

  • The marbling within the steak cooks and dispenses its flavor from within the meat.
  • The cut itself comes from the rib section of the cow from between the shoulder and loin. 
  • Being that it is the most tender part of the beef, butchers cut the section from the animal from the 6th to 12th ribs before cutting each of the ribs into individual cuts. 

 

Before Cooking a Ribeye

Although these are some of the most popular choices to cook your steak, whatever method you choose creates a different outcome in flavor. Before cooking your ribeye, it’s best to:

  • Marinade or season your steak generously 
  • Allow it to sit on your refrigerator for 45 minutes or longer to let the flavor settle in.
  • Prep veggies, such as onions to cook at the same time.

 

Grilling

Grilling on a bbq pit is not just for looks! Grilling prime ribeye not only preserve the nutritional value of the steak, but also adds a distinctive flavor. Be sure to oil up your grill gates, add half an onion if you wish, and have salt and pepper on hand.
