Product information

To meet our high safety standards, we only ship to the 48 contiguous states.

Orders are usually packed and dropped off at the shipping carrier the day after the order is placed. 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.

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 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! 

We don’t accept returns, because the Post Office would hunt us down if you shipped raw meat without the proper precautions. 

But, we would like to hear about any issues you’ve had, or if there was a problem with your order, and how we can make it right. Email support@slickhornranch.com or Call +1 801-215-9211 so we can make it right! 

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.  

Grill It

Sear It

Cooking Instructions

The teres major is tender, lean, and meaty—it only needs simple salt and pepper to taste great, but it shines with the Slickhorn signature spice blend. Season and wrap in plastic wrap overnight. Remove from the fridge and allow it to come to room temperature before searing.

Pan sear or grill to medium rare, about 130° F. This is important: rest in a warm
place for at least 15 minutes before slicing. Be sure to check the direction of
the grain and slice against it for the most tender bite. Always ensure your
steak is fully thawed and at room temperature before cooking. 

Slickhorn Style: Slickhorn Signature + Compound Butter

Serve It With: Oyster Mushrooms and Seasonal Veggies

Pair It With: Cabernet Sauvignon or a Stout

Where am I from?

Chuck Primal

The chuck primal is the cow’s shoulder and gets plenty of use, which develops a delicious beefy flavor. Typically, this primal needs a bit more time to reach peak tenderness, but the even blend of meat and fat makes for a tasty bite.
