Beef terminology—phrases like all-natural, grass-fed, grass-finished, organic, and Wagyu—can be tricky to understand. Thankfully, upscale grocery chains such as Central Market and Whole Foods publish guides to their quality standards that can help you navigate the meat case. For a more personal touch, a growing list of independent specialty shops around the state offer tightly curated selections from local producers. Here’s a sampling of some of the best.
1. The Chopping Block, Webster: all-natural Wagyu steaks from Rosewood Ranches, in Ennis.
2. Dai Due, Austin: all-natural Wagyu from Peeler Farms, in Floresville.
