When buying beef steak you are better buying from a specialist butcher instead of a self-service store. A butcher will usually stock a wider range of beef cuts than the self-service store, he will be more proud of the quality of his beef, is more likely to have hung it in the right way, and he will usually be proud to advise you on a few cooking tips.

Beef is an awful lot more loved in the United states than anywhere else on the planet. If you were to total all the beef based meals devoured in the world, you would find that the United states consumes not quite 25% of the beef.
