    It does have a stamp on it. USDA inspector stamped it as part of the quality control process.

    Why did the USDA inspector stamp the heart? This is unheard of. Ive done custom slaughter and collected offals and they will never stamp products, only carcasses when they do the grading.

    Ignorant here – in what way do you cook them? Always open to trying something new

    One of the best cuts of beef. Don’t know about the stamp tho.

    I was gonna report this for not having a NSFW, but this is what I get for joining r/smoking while stoned

    Worked in a slaughterhouse for a bit, cows were marked like this to separate the Angus cows from the regular ones.

    It’s a USDA inspection stamp on a beef heart. I work at a facility that does both custom and USDA. Custom doesn’t need to be inspected because it’s for ranchers who just want meat in their freezer. USDA is when they want to sell it out of their farm stand. At least where I’m from.
