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.
We can’t guarantee any changes or cancelations after your order has been processed. We move fast to get you fresh, frozen beef, so your order may already be on its way to you!

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

We’ve gone in-depth on our prep and steps for the Prime Rib Roast so you can create a stunning meal and impress all of your guests. Check out our guide here.

First things first, this roast takes a long time to thaw—like 3-4 days. Make sure you’re building enough time into your dinner prep to thaw it slowly in the refrigerator.

Season the roast and let it sit in the fridge overnight, then remove it an hour before you plan on starting it. A good baseline for cooking time is 15-20 minutes per pound. We recommend medium (120° F) to medium rare (130° F) for this cut. When it reaches your preferred internal temperature, remove it from the oven and let rest for 20-30 minutes.

Really make a show when carving this for your guests. You’ve earned it!

Serving Note: To help you party plan, a rule for prime rib is a pound per person.  A bone-in roast will feed about 2 people per bone.

Slickhorn Style: Prime Rib Rub

Serve It With: Crispy Rosemary Potatoes and Bright Salad

Where am I from?

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.
