"Hello! This is Chef Sean Roe on behalf of expertvillage.com and now that we have gone through our marinating I would like to also go over choosing your beef. Beef is distinguished 3 ways which is prime, choice and select; prime being the best. You will widely see is of course choice, which is more abundant. It is depending on the marbalization or the fat content that you see through here. The more fat content the better the flavor is. Also it is a limited supply. Issue is a supply in demand issue. When you are choosing beef, make sure that it is very nice and red, dark red. If you touch it and it feels oily or slimy, that means that bacteria has started to reproduce on it and they are leaching poison onto the beef. If it smells anything less than fresh, then you don't want to buy that as well. It should not have hardly any scent whatsoever. If it smells sour or vinegary at all, then we know that that beef has already started to go bad and grow bacteria and of course, be unhealthy. When you are cooking beef, realize that you can never cook bad bacteria out of beef. If beef is bad, it is going to be bad no matter how much you cook it, it will not be healthy for you. "

on 8/2/2008 I am surprised cooking will not kill harmful bacteria. I was taught in survival training that rancid meat could be made edible and safe to eat by cooking.
