When it comes to barbecue, nearly every meat lover has a different opinion on which types of beef are the best. According to the Korean food experts at Sura Hawaii, the most important factor when choosing beef cuts is the quality of the meat. As long as you get that right, the answer to which kind of beef is best is based on preference. To help put the debate to rest once and for all, the Honolulu barbecue specialists explain the different types of quality beef cuts and who will enjoy each.

A Guide to Beef

Rib Eye

Rib eye steaks are one of the most prized cuts of beef. They are procured from a muscle located next to the bovine’s spine and ribs. This area contains just the right amount of fat to create a tender, juicy finish. The fat provides a natural flavoring, but the bulk of taste is accomplished with a collection of spices. Just about everyone that loves beef will love a rib eye.

Brisket

Brisket is retrieved from the breast area of a bovine. The cut typically contains a large amount of fat which makes it one of the most beloved pieces for barbecue cooks and enthusiasts. The higher fat content allows the meat to be smoked for longer without drying out, so it can be loaded with more delicious flavors than other cuts. Anyone who loves a tougher beef consistency loaded with seasonings should opt for brisket.

Short Ribs

Short ribs are derived from cow’s lower rib cage. Short ribs are one of the juiciest cuts of beef, so if you love mouth-watering, tender meats that also retain flavor, this is the perfect cut for you.
