This is a whole beef top loin (New York strip loin), sold by the pound, graded USDA Prime and sourced from cattle that are both grass fed and grass finished. The "0x1" trim specification means the face side has no fat cap and the back side retains up to 1 inch of natural fat, the standard butcher cut for a whole strip loin primal.

USDA Prime is the highest beef quality grade assigned by the USDA, reserved for beef with abundant marbling that produces exceptional tenderness, juiciness, and flavor. Grass fed and grass finished cattle are raised entirely on pasture and forage with no grain finishing, resulting in a leaner cut with a distinct, clean beef flavor and a favorable omega-3 fatty acid profile compared to grain-finished beef.

Sold as a whole primal or subprimal, this strip loin is ideal for home butchering into individual New York strip steaks, roasting whole, or portioning to custom thickness. It is best prepared at high heat — grilled, reverse-seared, or pan-seared — to medium-rare for optimal tenderness and flavor.
