The ribeye is carved from the primal section called the beef rib. It falls between the chuck (shoulder) and the loin, and spans from ribs six through twelve. This section of the animal naturally collects more intramuscular fat, creating the beautiful white lines of fat β the fantastic marbling unique to the ribeye. The marbling will melt into the steak as it cooks, creating a juicy and tender steak. The bold, rich flavor and immense juiciness is why the ribeye is a favorite among steak lovers.
Steak lovers love ribeye. The menu at world-class steakhouses, the backyards of grillmasters, and the coolers leaving Omaha Steaks are the proof. The ribeye β also called a Delmonico, Spencer, beauty steak, sarket steak, or Scotch fillet β is known for its rich, buttery flavor and tender texture. In a variety of butcherβs cuts, the ribeye delivers mouthwatering, juiciness, and flavor in every bite.
