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. |
