I've seen a list of how many times a program has been ranked #1 in the AP which does a pretty good job, not too different from the above. You could also count top ten rankings end of year with a 10-9-8-7 point value, etc. Ohio State "shines" in having no bad three year stretches, they've always been pretty good, and the few losing years are spotted between really good years. I'd probably have Army in there somewhere, Minnesota? Pitt? FSU?

So the degree I'm pursuing I only just noticed is classified in the department of mathematics.

I don't feel like I know much about math at all.

That's what I hate.

@ $8/lb and shaped like THAT???

hell yeah

The shape is awesome.

And they're prime, so there you have it on the price.

I certainly don't think a hamburger needs to be made from prime, but if you're gonna use prime, it's gonna be expensive.

What does "prime" really mean when applied to ground beef? Is that just a marketing term? Maybe it's 70-30 GB.

I always thought it was determined by the amount of fat content

Prime is pretty meaningless across the board to be honest. The only cut that's actually inspected and graded, is the ribeye. And the only part of the ribeye that's actually inspected and graded, is the marbling between the 12th and 13th rib.

I completely ignore it for brisket and ribs.

So I suppose for hamburger, it means that whatever primal was ground up to make it, came from a "prime" carcass. But since hamburger can be made from various cuts, and they don't every specify, then I think it's pretty silly,

Percent fat is probably way more important than the grade of the carcass it came from.

We've all seen some kind of booze marketing as "moonshine". Of course it's not technically that, it's just branding.

A LOT of things are just branding with no regulation behind it, like "hypoallergenic", it means squat.

Tito's vodka claims to be gluten free, OK then, I understand it's made from corn.

utee94 · « **Reply #837 on:** August 10, 2024, 12:29:49 PM »

I mean, it IS gluten free. As is any other liquor made from corn or potatoes or sugar cane, etc.

But yeah, calling hamburger "Prime" seems like a silly marketing ploy. BUT people buy into it, and there you have it.

I've cooked "prime" brisket right next to select/ungraded and then done a blind taste test on it for my family and friends. Nobody could tell the difference.

IF it was actually ground from those primals

Big if, so the ribeye was graded prime. any scraps on the carcass that went into the hamburger grind can be cornsidered prime, I suppose.

maybe its a touch better

As an engineer with a very large amount of math background...

... that is not interesting.

I've failed math so many times I can't count
