You can rest assured that the lamb you purchase is of the highest quality. All American Lamb goes through a mandatory USDA inspection program and is graded according to quality and yield.

All companies that process American Lamb have inspectors in their plants who inspect live animals and carcasses.

The quality grade of the American Lamb is based on palatability and conformation. There are four USDA quality grades for American Lamb: Prime, Choice, Good and Utility; 80% of the American Lamb supply is graded Prime or Choice.

Yield grading involves evaluating an American Lamb carcass based on the weight of boneless retail cuts that a carcass should yield. Grades of 1-5 are determined by the USDA.
