Know your beef cuts and how to best prep them as steaks

Sometimes, these are created deliberately, including but not limited to what the cattle is fed to produce what’s known as the marbling effect in beef and other red meats such as lamb, goat, mutton, camel, etc. However, these are not the only variables that produce prime cuts. Consider the tenderloin or the fillet of beef! It hardly shows any marbling whatsoever, but it is undeniably the tenderest cut that the bovine possesses, making it the costliest. And it is one of the smallest muscle tissues inside the animal.
