Cuts of Beef - Ontario Beef

Choosing the perfect cut of beef, as well as preparing and cooking it properly, makes a world of difference in your final dish. We can help you find your perfect match at the meat counter.

TENDERNESS TIP

The farther a cut from the hoof, horn or hip of the animal, the more tender the meat. But less tender cuts often have more flavour.
