Texas Roadhouse sources their steaks as high-quality USDA Choice grade beef, which is known for good marbling and flavor, balancing quality and cost effectively. They import whole loins and handle them with care upon arrival. The steaks are aged in-house-tenderloin for 14 days and other cuts for 22 to 25 days-to enhance flavor and tenderness. Each steak is hand-cut daily by an in-house butcher at every location, ensuring freshness and moisture retention. Customers can even hand-select their specific steak cut from a butcher's display inside the restaurant. Texas Roadhouse also maintains strict quality control and ethical sourcing standards, including third-party inspections to ensure animal welfare and meat quality. They source beef through long-term contracts that help keep prices reasonable while maintaining quality
