They say, "The USDA grade of beef depends on really just one factor: marbling." And, they say that their steaks have "exceptional" marbling. So, if that is the case, why don't their steaks have a USDA Prime grade?

Regarding the Kansas City Steaks, they are pricey. They charge $120 per pound for USDA Prime filet mignon, as compared to $35 per pound at Publix. I have never been disappointed with the Publix steaks. You can definitely tell the difference in tenderness between USDA Prime vs USDA Choice.
Wow, $120 a pound for a filet and customer does not pick it.Not in my budget. Wonder how much difference there is between a prime vs choice filet. Bet the difference is miniscule. Hate to say this but Sams does have a great deli like butcher set up. Pick your own individual steaks for a lot less than Publix.
