Beef
Beef meat
Beef meat is edible cattle flesh presented without a specified cut, trimming or preparation, so its colour, texture, fat and flavour vary widely.

About Beef meat
Beef meat is the edible meat of cattle, presented here as a broad food category rather than a specified cut. It may be sold fresh, chilled, frozen, or otherwise processed, but the label does not identify which form applies.
Beef is used in many foods and preparations, and its colour, texture, fat content, and flavour vary with the cut and handling. This record does not establish a particular cut, degree of trimming, cooking method, or added ingredient.
