At Aurora Meat and Cheese we are proud licensed retailers of the Certified Angus Beef brand. You will taste the difference and your family will love the taste.
Certified Angus Beef is celebrating 40 + years in business. They formed their company in 1978 and their mission was to provide consumers with quality, naturally aged, tender, flavorful, and juicy beef every time.
| Certified Angus Beef must pass 10 stringent quality specifications to ensure the brand’s premium standard of quality. The standards are: |
| Marbling and Maturity: |
| 1. |
Modest or higher marbling-for the taste that ensures customer satisfaction |
| 2. |
Medium or fine marbling texture – the white “flecks of flavor” in the beef provides juiciness in every bite |
| 3. |
Only the youngest classification of product qualifies as “A” maturity – for the supreme tenderness |
 |
| The next three specifications ensure uniform, consumer steak size: |
| 4. |
10-to 16-square inch ribeye area |
| 5. |
Less than 1,000-pound hot carcass weight |
| 6. |
Less than 1-inch fat thickness |
|
| And finally, four specifications further ensure the quality and tenderness of the brand: |
| 7. |
Superior muscling (restricts influence of dairy cattle) |
| 8. |
Practically free of capillary ruptures (ensures the most visually appealing steak) |
| 9. |
No dark cutters (ensures the most visually appealing steak) |
| 10. |
No neck hump exceeding 2 inches (safeguards against cattle with more variation) |
At Aurora Meat and Cheese we carry a large assortment of Certified Angus Beef steaks such as Ribeye, T-Bone, Strip Loin and Sirloin. Please visit our meat counter and our friendly and knowledgeable staff will be happy to assist you. |
