Details

The SRF Gold Plus™ New York strip is loaded with the highest amount of marbling offered by Snake River Farms. The steak’s intense marbling is immediately apparent with abundant streaks of rich intramuscular fat. Once cooked, the Gold Plus New York has a rich buttery aroma, an umami packed flavor and a tender, but firm texture. 

SRF Gold Plus™ grades at BMS 11–12, the top tier of the Japanese marbling scale. This high level of intramuscular fat delivers an exceptional juicy steak with a beef forward flavor. Each bite highlights the marbling and craftsmanship that sets Snake River Farms’ apart.

Cooking Tips

New York strip steaks are full of marbling and are best cooked medium rare to medium to allow the intramuscular fat to liquify and distribute throughout the steak.

The reverse sear, heating the steak at a low temperature and finishing in a skillet, produces an evenly cooked interior. A final sear in a cast iron skillet creates a flavorful, savory crust.

This is one of our favorite steaks for grilling. Although New York strips are highly marbled, they do not have the large sections of fat like a ribeye and are not as prone to flare ups.

The grain of the New York strip runs across the short side of the steak. Cut the steak diagonally across the grain for the most tender texture.

Beef Grading

Snake River Farms beef grades start at USDA Prime, the top grade on the USDA scale. The majority of SRF beef is marbled well beyond this level. To grade SRF, we use a 12-point Beef Marbling Score (BMS), which measures marbling that exceeds the USDA scale.

SRF Silver® - BMS of 4 to 5. Marbling comparable to USDA Prime. 

SRF Black® - BMS of 6 to 8. Significantly more marbling than USDA Prime.   

SRF Gold® - BMS of 9 to 10. Dramatically more marbling than USDA Prime. 

SRF Gold Plus™ - BMS of 11 to 12. The highest marbling available from Snake River Farms.

Loin

The loin primal supplies some of the most desirable steaks and is located below the backbone, between the rib and round sections. The sirloin is the portion toward the rear of the loin and is the source of SRF Wagyu™ top sirloin steaks and the picanha (coulotte). The front portion of the loin is known as the short loin and is home to the SRF Wagyu™ New York strip, Porterhouse, T-bone and filet mignon steaks.
