Chuck 

They are cut from the shoulder area and are quite flavorful. Although the meat is tough, if seasoned properly they can be used to make dishes like beef pot-roast, beef grill, and beef stew. 

Shank 

Such meat is usually cut from the leg area and is again quite tough and chewy. It can be used to prepare beef bourguignon and lean ground beef. They are much preferred to be consumed with red wine or a glass of champagne or cava. 

Brisket 

Brisket is usually referred to as the meat from the breast area and needs to be slow-cooked for long, for it to be cooked to perfection. It is usually used to make pastrami or smoked beef. 

Rib 

Such a cut is usually from the rib area and is very tender to cook and eat. When cooked to perfection it offers the most delectable and flavor-packed steaks and is quite popular in restaurants.  

Loin 

This cut comes from the back of the cow, a little above the ribs, and is considered one of the tenderest cuts. It can be used to make roast loin with wine sauce, grilled to perfection with some garlic butter. 

Sirloin 

This kind of cut comes from the back of the cattle, just past the loin areas, and is again very tender and full of flavor. It can either be roasted with some seasoning or can be mixed with steak to form steak and sirloin bites.  

Apart from these, some of the delectable but not so popular cuts are tongue, knuckles, and neck which are also enjoyed across the globe.   

Grass-fed Beef Sticks 

This is popular because they are made of especially grass-fed cattle and mixed with cultured spices like mustard, paprika, lactic acid, and citric acid. These are then preserved through organic ways to produce tasty beef sticks.  

Beef Jerky 

This very popular snack is made of curated beef which is then dried. Such meat has a longer shelf-life and is packed with flavor. You can either eat them directly or smoke-dry it along with some wine sauce on the side.  

Texture 

Some of the beef jerky or sticks are dried and chewy and some are tender and flavored. It depends on your taste, on which one you want to go for. Chewy jerky is made from the tough cattle meat cuts, whereas the tender ones are curated from the tender cuts and portions. 

Flavors 

There are four major flavors to chose from. They can be sweet, basic, savory, and hot. If you are looking for a traditional jerky taste, go for the basic ones and if you are looking for the one loaded with spices, go with the hot ones. But if you have a sweet tooth craving, the best is to go for the sweet variant. Either way, before buying look at the description to determine the flavor. 

Go for Smaller Packs 

Beef jerky and sticks are best within 3 days of opening a pack. After that chances of it getting spoilt are high. Therefore, going for smaller packs will help avoid any kind of wastage. If you are going for a larger pack, make sure to store it in an airtight container and away from sunlight to keep it edible for a longer time.
