…and other burning questions answered.

Have you ever wondered is Prime Rib prime beef? (Answer:  Not necessarily. And probably not.)

The prime rib name refers to where the beef is cut from, not its grade.

But this article is a good refresher on beef grades and other beefy distinctions if you need a quick guide.

It always helps to brush up on your beef knowledge so that you can make the best choices for the recipes you try.

So, I told you it’s National Prime Beef Month. But how to you proclaim to the world your love of this carefully selected and inspected beef?

Behold…

…your very own USDA Prime T-shirt.

Now I’ll admit, this shirt is probably proclaiming your love for yourself more than succulent beef, but just let people guess what it truly means. That’s the mystery of you. And the reason why you can pull off this shirt.

If anyone asks, just tell ’em it’s National Prime Beef Month and you’re just doing your part. Case closed.

You can get this fabulous shirt here. And to really get into the spirit of the month you can get some real USDA Prime beef here.

September just might be my favorite month!

Are you a fan of the TV show Friends? It’s in syndication now and you can probably catch an episode at any time of day if you really try.

On the show, Joey and Chandler’s apartment door had this little magnetic board where they would leave messages for each other – or, rather, the producers/writers would leave subliminal messages for the audience.

I must admit I never caught the one you’re about to see, but if I had I would have loved those Friends even more.

So in honor of September and National Prime Beef Month (seriously, it really is) . . . I give you – Joey and Chandler’s “USDA Prime.”

Rejoice!
