shill thread

>>13787360
They do a good prime rib

If you thought longhorn was "fucking amazing" you need to buy better meat in general anon.

>>13788272
longhorn uses only 100% USDA prime beef in their restaurants. you can rarely get better from a store

>>13788278
they do not use USDA prime

No casual steakhouse in the country uses USDA prime, you'd be paying $40-50+ for steaks if they were.

>>13788291
wrong. you probably work for a different steakhouse

>>13788298
Lmao, you have no idea what wholesale USDA prime costs if you think ANY steakhouse selling sub $30 steaks is using anything but USDA select or choice at best.

WHOLESALE price of USDA ribeyes are over $20 a lbs.

Yet longhorn is charging $22 for their ribeyes.

Unless they have ZERO markup for servers, bar staff, building expenses, etc. There is literally no way in hell they're using USDA prime, and if they WERE using USDA prime, they'd be advertising the fact that they do.

I can't find "USDA prime" anywhere on their website, because shocker, they don't use prime.

>>13788308
ha ha made you look

>>13788331
pretending to be retarded doesn't make you a troll, it makes you a retard.

>>13788308
>what are loss leaders
hurr durr

>>13787379
it's come to the point where shill threads are less retarded than homegrown ones so i don't mind

>>13788341
Then EVERY steak on their menu would be a loss leader, since they're all right around, or lower than the price of USDA prime wholesale.


Hell, even high end steakhouses that DO have USDA prime, won't always use USDA prime for every steak, fillet for example, it's common to be dry aged USDA choice instead of prime because prime fillets are SO fucking expensive wholesale.

>>13788308
not him but there's no way wholesale prime ribeye is $20/lb, it's about that price retail at whole foods and costco is much less. I highly doubt longhorn is using prime either way

>>13788291
The red X means prime dumbass

>>13788511
No, it means the lowest grade fit for human consumption.

>>13788518
fat content in the steak is rendered pointless since I can just add a stick of butter while cooking the steak and voila, fat content increased

>>13788511
No, the red X means they don't disclose what grade it is at all, and it's most likely choice or select.

>>13788474
The problem is most places wont even tell you USDA prime pricing unless you have a business account with them, or you're buying such small quantity, that you're no longer paying wholesale price.

>>13788548
>unless you have a business account with them
That makes no sense. How would I know if I might want to switch to them as a supplier if I can't see their pricing?

>>13788700
lol, go looking then, you'll be spending a long time without finding anything.

>>13788707
So you're saying restaurants choose their suppliers w/o seeing a price list first? Perhaps that explains why 90% fail within the first 2 years.

>>13788756
only 3% of US beef is graded USDA prime.

MOST restaurants never touch USDA prime, it's far out of their price-range to begin with.

>>13788291
Longhorn uses Choice for steaks ordered medium, med-rare, and rare and Select for medium-well and well-done.
On the menu, we have a disclaimer that says "we do not guarantee steaks ordered well-done" and that's why.

>>13788804
>USDA prime.
That's still a fucking low bar compared to rest of the western world.

>>13788308
>he thinks steakhouses makes money selling steaks
let me blow your mind and tell you that five guys loses money on every burger they sell, they are a fry-and-soda joint that happens to sell burgers to get you in the door.

>>13788893
I'd tell you that you're a fucking retard.

They charge $5+ for what amounts to under $2 in ingredients.

>>13788887
Not really

compared to A5 wagyu, sure. but most of the western world doesn't particularly have good quality beef.

And if you look in europe, most places that offer high quality beef, charge similar prices to USDA prime anyway, with similar quality.

>>13788804
>USDA prime
Amerilards have the lowest beef standards in the world. Even their restaurants feed customers with hormone slabs of chemical laden meats.
>>13788887
Fucking this

>>13787360
The flavor you taste is 2 pounds of butter covering everything.

>>13788944
bullshit, i've shopped in europe and beef there looks like trash. Not to mention most places have shit selection of actual steak cuts.

>>13788997
>i've shopped in europe
All of it?

>>13789004
>i-i-it gets better just come to my country!

>>13788956
thats how a steak is meant to be cooked

>>13789004
italy, france, england, germany.

Of the 4, france had the best beef.

>>13789010
Should of gone to Scotland.
Their Angus beef is world class.

>>13789022
shu 'av gon t' sco'an

>>13788887
>That's still a fucking low bar compared to rest of the western world.
Bullshit. It's actually considerably high when in comparison to the rest of the world sans Japan's grading system which now has local grading analogs.

>>13789010
Iirc most euro cunts send their decent beef to restaurants only, and all the non business consumers are only allowed to buy Walmart tier meat.

>>13789035
we buy from butchers not grocery stores, goy.
now fuck off and ingest some more antibiotic ridden, GMO fed 'meat'.

>>13787907
ok boomer

>>13788345
shill threads are a plague and should be eradicated. they all just devolve into a corporate jerk off contest.

>>13789046
>Buy from butchers
It doesn't matter where you buy your Walmart tier meat if it's Walmart tier, retard.
The US has an abundance of craft meat available at butchers, and at certain grocery stores, so go fuck yourself you shitty dirty third worlder.

>>13787360

amerimutts eat sick slop "meat" that wouldnt be allowed to be sold as animal feed in civilized countries. fuck them

>>13789072
>craft meat

>>13789046
US meat is better than *GMO (unclassified), contaminated euro meat, and this is why euros are buying meat from the US starting this year.

>>13789072

I'm leaving the thread, so you foreigners can be top dog now. Bye faggots. I'll wreck you niggers later.

>>13789159
nigger how about you try running a mile then we'll talk

It's hard to talk about food with americans because I am a European who would be classified as white. There are no white americans.

>>13789054
I’m 26. Are you saying non-boomers don’t like prime rib? Or are you saying they can’t afford it?

>>13789139

>euros are buying meat from the US starting this year.
Source? Oh yea, your ass. They wouldn't feed US meat to their dogs.

>>13789438
You don't have real news anywhere,xand completely forgot about the entire Brazilian/European meat scandal that recently happened.

Communicating with soulless Europeans is just disgusting. They all lack their own opinion, self awareness, originallity, and just repeat hyperbole. It's like staring at an abyss of defeat, or speaking to an abused child that was whipped their whole life.

Sure is brainlet in here

>>13789153
>>if you're not american your a muslim
Amen

>>13789817
>Still no source EU will buy US dog food level meat
Keep digging, little one!

>>13790213
US has far higher standards and that's a fact

>>13789853
rent free

>>13790213
You're dumb and gay. Europe has to buy American meat now after getting absolutely fucked from their domestic and Brazilian meat sources. Brazilian beef scandal is literally old news now and you should be ashamed that you don't know about it.

>>13790386

>>13787360
The fuck is wrong with those mashed taters? They look revolting.

>>13788880
No, they fucking don't. No chain fucking restaurant is gonna have a stock of shitty steaks to cook mid-rare and another stock of steaks to cook mid-well.

Threads like these make me glad I don't eat meat (or pay money to do so) anymore.

>>13791473
Post like this make me glad to know that faggots like you will die before age 60 thanks to your soy consumption.

Why do I even come to this board

>>13788278
>longhorn uses only 100% USDA prime beef in their restaurants.
Hahahahhahhahahahahahahahahahahahha

>>13789008
When you use the lowest quality of beef, I guess you do need 2 pounds of butter to make it taste good.

>>13791695
Even when using the highest quality beef, most professional chefs finish a steak with a butter baste.

>>13791717
Not with 2 pounds of butter like you get from restaurants using low quality beef like Longhorn. If you were to even suggest smothering an A5 waygu in butter the chef would probably ask you to leave.

>>13791721
A5 doesn't count since most places simply don't have it

In the US at least, when mentioning the highest quality, generally it means USDA prime.

Obviously A5 wagyu is not going to need butter.


Ruth's Chris though as an example serves their USDA Prime fillet in a 1/4" deep pool of melted butter

>>13791725
>In the US at least, when mentioning the highest quality, generally it means USDA prime.
I think it's prime gold, or platinum now for the highest, or that just might be an informal grading system that the suppliers have adopted as a domestic version of a4/a5.

>>13791815
anything that isn't USDA isn't official.

https://www.ams.usda.gov/grades-standards/beef/shields-and-marbling-pictures


American consumers will generally buy USDA choice or USDA select at their local stores.

USDA prime is generally reserved for the commercial industry (restaurants) though can be found at some butchers and grocery stores, generally in limited quantity at a fairly high price (though still a good deal cheaper than what you'd pay at a restaurant)

Snake river farms (one of the largest distributors of domestic wagyu) DOES have a "wagyu gold" grading but this isn't USDA approved or sanctioned, it's just what they call it themselves for marketing reasons.

>The regular American Wagyu beef has a BMS score of between 6 and 8 while the Gold Grade has a BMS score of 9+.

A5 wagyu from japan is BMS 8-12.

>>13791690
*points* hahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahaha look at this faggot!!!

>>13789067
>corporate jerk off contest.
which is still better than your daily maoist-tranny spergout on /ck/

>>13791866
surely you aren't stupid enough to actually think a bottom barrel chain steakhouse uses USDA prime, are you?
