Certified Angus Beef Gift:
What Dads Really Want For Father’s Day
Jump to the article index below
Every year we try to find something special for the connoisseurs on our Father’s Day gift list. In recent years we’ve sent truffled cashews, great chocolates and rare cheeses. But this year we’re going back to basics:
For the slam dunk, we’re sending Certified Angus Beef.
Many online steak companies offer USDA steaks of the quality that is widely available in supermarkets.
We were introduced to Certified Steak and Seafood, a wholesaler that has been providing superior steak to fine restaurants for three generations. They’ve entered e-commerce with a website for consumers.
What caught our eye for Father’s Day is the range of Certified Angus Beef in choice or prime cuts. Our gift will be the hefty cowboy steak, which is cut from the first six ribs. Also known as a bone-in rib-eye steak, the combination of taste and texture of the steaks we tried from Certified Steak and Seafood was luscious.
To source its beef, Certified deals with American family ranchers who are members of the Certified Angus Beef Program. Its Triple Certified Angus Beef is hormone-free and of the quality usually only available in fine restaurants.
What Is Triple Certified Beef?
First, the beef is inspected by the Certified Angus Beef Program, a rigorous process.
Second, USDA beef inspectors are on-premises at Certified Steak and Seafood to keep a constant watch over the in-house processes that convert each steer to trimmed beef.
Finally, each and every product undergoes a chemical analysis and is certified by an outside lab to ensure safety and quality—an extra step not required by the government, but an assurance to customers. As an extra, the company employs an institute-trained chef in its test kitchens.
This combination of standards is tough and demanding, but has pleased fine restaurateurs for years.
