At Kirk Market’s Butcher Counter, we’re proud to offer Certified Angus Beef® (CAB) — one of the most trusted names in premium beef. Whether you’re planning a Sunday roast, firing up the grill, or just craving a perfectly marbled ribeye, you’ll find something special in our CAB Prime and Choice selection.

So, what makes CAB so special?

Certified Angus Beef® isn’t just any Angus. It must meet 10 exacting standards for marbling, tenderness, juiciness, and flavour. Only 3 out of 10 cattle make the cut — and that’s before we even talk about grading.

Prime vs. Choice — What’s the Difference?

CAB Prime is the highest USDA grade, with abundant marbling that melts during cooking for incredible flavour and tenderness. It’s perfect for that steakhouse-quality experience at home.

CAB Choice offers slightly less marbling than Prime, but still delivers exceptional quality — ideal for everyday meals that don’t compromise on taste.

Both options are:
✅ Hand-cut by our expert butchers
✅ Perfectly trimmed for consistency
✅ Available fresh, never frozen
✅ Raised without added hormones

Why Shop the Butcher Counter?

At Kirk Market, we do more than stock beef — we know it. Our butchers are happy to help you select the right cut, share cooking tips, or even custom-cut to your specs. Looking for a thick-cut bone-in ribeye or the perfect roast for a family dinner? Just ask.

Cook Like a Pro

Pair your CAB steak with simple ingredients that let the beef shine — think sea salt, cracked pepper, and a sizzling hot cast-iron pan. Finish with a knob of butter and fresh herbs, and you’ve got a five-star meal in minutes.
