Buy the Widest Selection Of Steaks Online

If you are a meat lover, you may know of some of the large steaks that are served in specialty restaurants. Steaks refer to beef, the meat that comes from cows. Many people prefer beef than pork because it is leaner, has more nutritional benefits and is less likely to cause disease. Even in the Bible, though it is permitted by God that we butcher and consume meat from pigs in The New Testament, The Old Testament revealed that animals with split toes could cause disease. Consequently in the early days, people were more likely to eat beef rather than lamb. This religious information from ancient Christian teachings is now an established fact with scientific founding. Pork is not as healthy as beef and may have dangerous toxins.

To buy steak online requires neither knowledge of the different types available nor why they are named as such. Depending on the cut, steaks have different names such as chuck, round, sirloin, top sirloin, Delmonico, rib eye, rib, t-bone and many more.

Chuck steaks are known for their rich flavor, their approximate 1-inch thickness and their rectangular shape, as well as having a balance of meat and fat. Round steaks are cut as such and have less fat, or any at all. The cut is often thin and moderately tough. Sirloin steaks are cuts from the rear back portion of the cow. This steak is often served in the United States with French fries and garlic butter. The top sirloin steak is a sub type of sirloin and usually has about 1 inch of lean meat and less than half an inch of pure fat. The name Delmonico steak came from a famous specialty restaurant in New York City in the mid 1990s that popularized this kind of beef cut. Rib eye steaks are also known as Scotch Fillet, which come from the rib section and are usually boneless. Rib steaks are famous for the marbling of fat, which make it one of the most flavorful of all steaks. T-bone steaks are one of the most expensive cuts around because they contain large chunks of the tenderloin and short loin. They are considered by many as one of the highest quality cuts.

As for cuts of meat named after the origin of the cattle, four such types are: Kobe steaks, Angus steaks, American Wagyu steaks and Australian Wagyu steaks.
