I lived in Austin for a year and had been meaning to get to Salt Lick but never did. Oh well, we will have to when we come to visit. I did love the pork ribs at Green Mesquite.

Kobe beef can cost as much as $50-60/pound and in a restaurant you will typically pay $70 for 1/4 pound of tenderloin. The marbling is extremely fine with no big chunks of fat so that the mean basically can melt in your mouth just from the heat of your mouth. Prime which is the normal highest grade typically has good small flecks of fat but nothing like kobe. The lowest quality meats (select) are mostly lean or have chunks of fat rather than small flecks.

Here is a link to how the USDA grades meat http://meat.tamu.edu/beefgrading.html
