Schweid & Sons Promise of Quality

As your retail go-to for freshly ground, custom-blended burgers, we take great pride in making those burgers with the very best Angus beef available. This is why we make many of our blends with Certified Angus Beef ^® brand cuts.

What is the Certified Angus Beef ^® brand?

Certified Angus Beef ^® is the original brand of Angus beef, known for always being tasty, tender and juicy. The brand, which family farmers and ranchers established in 1978, is truly a stamp of exceptional quality and your sign of a great meal. It’s owned and backed by the many farming and ranching members of the American Angus Association^®, and those members are dedicated to raising cattle with care, so your family can enjoy time around the dinner table.

How does beef earn the Certified Angus Beef ^® brand name?

Only the best of Choice and Prime grades are considered for the brand name. To earn it, a third-party U.S. Department of Agriculture grader grades each cut and decides if it meets the brand’s 10 exacting standards for exceptional flavor, juiciness and tenderness. The brand’s first requirement is marbling—those small, white flecks of flavor within the lean that melt when cooked and give beef its mouthwatering flavor.

For those new to the brand, visit its website to learn more about the beef itself, as well as gather some delicious burger recipes. And for those new to Schweid & Sons, check out our page, and be sure to find a store near you to pick up some of our Certified Angus Beef ^® burgers.
