For direct consumption, you want a steakhouse cut, or at least a “menu” cut:
Hanger - (note: not Hangar) very tender, great flavor, good value cut with interesting grain. Not that easy to prep. Around $10/lb.
Cube Steaks - Tough, poor flavor, but cheap. Avoid, unless on sale for a song.
Top Round - This is my go-to at London Broil, beef jerky, or stew. Creates nice chunks of meat that soften nicely and is easy to prep.
Shoulder “London Broil” - Inferior to Top Round, but acceptable if on sale.
Chuck - Fine, but again, inferior to Top Round.
Ground Beef - tough to grade, it really depends on who’s grinding it, so get it only at places where you trust the production values. Will pay up to $4/lb. If not on sale.
It's really not as tasty, IMO. Grain-fed is fatter, i.e. more marbling, the source of flavor. Grass-fed just tastes weird, and any extra Omega-3s you get from it don't really matter if you're taking fish oil.
It's more expensive, to boot.
Pass.
An amazing experience, however, as long as you consume it properly.
SO GOOD though. Perfect tenderness, flavor, & ease of eating. No Angus cut is perfect, always some sacrifice involved, but not with hybrid.
I was recently forced to endure a couple of months at Riker's. I was gonna a ribeye first thing back, but my roomie had eaten all my steaks! I laughed, 'cause this guy eats nothing but rice & beans. He said he couldn't help it, my meat was so delicious!
