  2. Beef Value Cuts program Published Friday, May 01, 2009 Infraspinatus, teres major, spinalis dorsi, serratus ventralis, multifidus dorsi. While these sound like the scientific names of Jurassic-era beasts, they're actually the names of five of the 10 most-tender muscles of the beef carcass, as measured by Warner-Bratzler shear force testing. These cuts, however, are buried within the area of the beef carcass that ranges from the neck to the fifth rib of the chest cavity, a primal better known as the chuck. Muscle Profiling

  3. Instrument Grading COLD Calculation Published Friday, May 1, 2009 Three decades of carcass-grading research and data collection will soon begin to pay dividends for the beef industry: instrument grading has finally arrived.

  4. Product Enhancement BEEF QUALITY Tenderness, Flavor, Consistency & Value
