Steak tips....do you mean those loin strips that are uneven long cut.... we got them from Costco in NY. No one has them here. They are my favorite!!

I spend 40 years in Foodservice Distribution to restaurants, healthcare, Colleges, etc. I began selling fresh "boxed", cryovac beef about 1980 and sold hundreds of thousands of pounds in that time period.
Ask if the beef was grass fed or corn/grass fed. Corn fed will have more marbeling(fat), which gives it flavor and tenderness. I do everything possible not to eat grass fed beef.
I've never seen beef out of Mexico. Could exist, but not the usual source. Most beef sold is not prime. A quality choice product is more affordable and eats great. But prime, corn fed is fantastic. Angus means little to me -- just a black cow. "Certified" angus has tight specs and is also fantastic - you may find that in this area. "Certified angus" is the key. Ask to see a label.
Costco beef is quality - we buy it and freeze it.
Just spoke to owner/friend of a steakhouse chain in Illinois and beef prices are through the roof - so don't complain to the seller. If you buy cheap, that's what you'll get.
Good grilling!!!!

Our fav choice by far for all meats, poultry, and seafood is butcherbox.com.

When I cook steaks, I usually buy filet mignon from Publix. They are graded as "Choice" and are very good. I have purchased "Prime" filets from other places, like Sam's or the Allen Brothers website, but I really can't tell the difference in quality or taste between the choice and prime filets.

Although, I can't tell the difference between a $5 and $50 bottle of wine.

Nope... A simple Google search reveals:

Does Sam’s Club meat come from China?
Sam’s Club’s meat is not from China. Its meat is sourced in the United States. Nebraska beef, National Beef, Excel, Swift, IBP, John Morrell, and Farmland are examples of such meat processors Sam’s Club gets its meat from.

I believe that during a previous Democrat administration and Democrat ruled house the FDA regulations on food labeling was changed. It not longer required the statement of origin. Though I do see a lot of food packages do have the claim, especially vegetables.

I know Costco labels it's salmon by country of origin...

I never bought a $50 bottle, but I have been given a few, including a bottle of Don Perignon champagne. It didn't taste any better than the Cooks that I usually buy.

Good to know! I go there but rarely buy meat there except in the deli. I will be purchasing different meats from their counter to try them out. Thanks!

I see a lot of labels that say "distributed" by the US but they do not say where the product originated from- probably China, India, etc.
