## **The highest USDA grade available**
USDA Prime represents the highest quality grade awarded by the United States Department of Agriculture. Only a very small percentage of American beef achieves this prestigious classification thanks to its exceptional marbling, tenderness, juiciness and flavor.
This USDA Prime Black Angus comes from carefully selected American Black Angus cattle. The animals are NHTC-certified (Non Hormone Treated Cattle), antibiotic-free and grain-fed for approximately 100 days, creating extraordinary marbling and an exceptionally rich eating experience.
## **The benchmark for premium steak**
The world's finest steakhouses rely on USDA Prime because of its consistency and remarkable quality.
As the steak cooks, the abundant marbling melts into the meat, creating exceptional tenderness and a luxurious buttery flavor.

**Top van de top.**
Zonder twijfel dé beste stuk ribeye te krijgen. Jammer dat het zo duur is , 52,50 euro voor een halve kilo. Het is zo lekker dat ik het wil stelen :p ik vergelijk deze ribeye met goud. Zelfs het kijken naar is leuk.

**Le meilleur !**
Quelle claque ! Ce steak est merveilleux ! Plus savoureux que n'importe lequel (et j'en ai mangé !). A recommander au barbecue :p. Merci Gustor!

**USDA Prime branding is vague, but the taste of this one is not**
The definition of USDA Primes is a bit fuzzy, but regardless, all I've tried from Gustor so far have been very satisfying. Not only you get a lot of flavor via buttery fat and decent marbling but it's almost 100% edible per piece, which makes it less pricey per Kg vs some other cuts like certain rib-eyes where you throw away 20% in stiff tendons. It's not a cheap cut, but it's still good value and very tasty, you deserve it and so far, I'm getting more of it.

**In Stilte**
Peper, zout, roomboter, in pan, á point... heb het gegeten in alle stilte en op mijn eentje... met mijn ogen dicht... zo mals en met vet dat smelt in de mond... goede vleesmaak, genoten tot ver na de maaltijd...

**Meilleure que la meilleure des USA**
Cette viande a un goût plus neutre, mais qu'est-ce qu'elle est tendre. J'en ai goûté beaucoup lors de mes voyages en Amérique du Nord et... C'est mieux à la maison !
**Elodie Q.** · 10/29/2020
**Excellent !**
Service de livraison toujours au top. Viande bien persillée et vraiment très tendre. Vraiment excellente. De plus, à chaque fois que je demande une épaisseur minimum pour la pièce de viande (et que c'est possible bien entendu), cela a toujours été respecté. Merci GUSTOR !!!
