New beef brand cuts bring new opportunities for appealing to consumers. Over the past few years, The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association has developed new moderately priced Beef Value Cuts (BVC), Beef Chuck Optimization cuts (BOC) and Beef Round Optimization cuts (BRO) from the chuck, shoulder and round primals. Beef Alternative Merchandising (BAM) cuts are derived from the loin and rib primals and provide new options for merchandising top sirloins, top loins and rib eyes. The cuts are based on the specifications listed below.
