Beef Orders: Orders placed on Thursday after 10am MT or over the weekend will ship the following Monday — because beef shouldn’t be stuck waiting in a distribution center on the weekend.
To meet our high safety standards, we only ship to the 48 contiguous states.
Your order comes in a box packed with cool-gel ice packs and insulating materials to keep it frozen. We ship to you very quickly to ensure your meat arrives cool to the touch (under 40 degrees Fahrenheit).
We don’t accept returns, because the Post Office would hunt us down if you shipped raw meat without the proper precautions.

Diamond Grading System 

The Slickhorn Score for Wagyu beef grading is based on intramuscular fat, which determines marbling and tenderness.   

  • Diamond I includes Wagyu beef with intramuscular fat between 20-30 percent, which is higher than USDA Prime.    
  • Diamond II includes Wagyu beef with intramuscular fat between 30-40 percent, which is significantly higher than USDA Prime and deeply marbled.    
  • Diamond III is incredibly rare. It includes Wagyu beef with exquisite marbling and intramuscular fat content above 40 percent. It is our highest-grade beef—extremely decadent, buttery, and tender.    

USDA Grading System 

The USDA regulates and oversees beef grading. There are eight total grades, but only a few you need to worry about. 

  • USDA Select is less than 3 percent intramuscular fat.
  • USDA Choice balances quality, flavor, and accessibility, with intramuscular fat between 3-6 percent.  
  • USDA Prime has intramuscular fat above 6 percent up to 10 percent. It is the highest USDA grade with the best marbling, tenderness, and flavor.

Cooking Instructions

The ribeye has three main parts: the longissimus dorsi, or the eye of the ribeye; the spinalis, or ribeye cap or crown; and the complexus, which may or may not be present.  

The cowboy ribeye steak is designed to feed a few people or one hungry cowboy. Always ensure your steak is fully thawed and at room temperature before cooking. Simple kosher salt and a black pepper are all you need.  

Create a direct and indirect heat zone on your grill. Place the steak over indirect heat, moving frequently for an even cook, until it registers about 120° F. Move the steak into the direct heat for about one to two minute per side, until a nice crust has formed. Remove, rest for about 10 minutes, then slice against the grain and serve! 

Slickhorn Style: Sweet + Smoky Compound Butter  

Serve It With: Hasselback Potato and Roasted Carrots  

Pair It With: Straight Whiskey, Like a Cowboy

Rib Primal

The rib primal is near the…ribs! You guessed it. The muscles in this primal are used for support and located between the chuck and loin. The meat in this primal is deeply marbled and delicious. 

No Doubt. Just Beef.
