Other Facts About Beef

The quality and tenderness of beef cuts are the two factors which determine the cooking method used in their preparation. Tender cuts cooked by roasting, broiling and panbroiling may be served rare, medium or well done. Less tender cuts cooked by braising, panfrying or in liquid should be cooked well done. Some beef is marketed as corned beef and some as dried beef to provide flavor variety. Frozen beef cuts may be stored at 0° F. or lower, 6 to 12 months.
