Choice is what you're going to find as the "standard" grade in most chain stores (Kroger corp) and is the middle of the three consumer grades. Prime is offered on select cuts at select times in most chains. Lower end or bargain grocery stores will often offer Select for their sales in order to advertise a lower cost. The three lower grades - Standard, Commercial, and Utility are rarely sold direct-to-consumer, and tbh I've never seen those labels outside of foodservice. I think my local Kroger has Choice tenderloin filets for ~$28-29 or Prime for ~34/lb and whole tenderloins for $2-3 per pound less.

I get about 30% waste on trimming up a whole tenderloin, so it's almost never to my benefit to re-cut my own if I'm buying locally and there's not a killer sale. TBF, I trim exceptionally lean, and some of that waste becomes steak sandwiches. For less than $11/lb (with filler and instacart filler to get to 30%) Choice tenderloin is a no-brainer.

Was this your first foray going to an Aldi? It's not a typical supermarket with multiple departments. That's one of the ways they keep costs down.

I think you are thinking of Select, Choice is what the majority of the meat is you buy at the grocery store. Prime is only like 3-5% of beef. Prime Rib does not mean it is Prime beef.

Looks like word got out. Lamb and Rib Roast all sold out at all 3 Aldis in my area (central NC).

There is absolutely nothing wrong with choice, but do be aware of what you're getting. Less marbling, more connective tissue (that is, tougher).

Good deal. My poor ass will still stick to cheap pork and chicken breast.

Went to two locations for the 2nd time and sold out... Also had beef tenderloins on sale too. Also sold out after only 6 hours on sale. Sad they took over Winn Dixie because this place is a serious joke. Meat counter the size of a large closet... What kind of grocery store has that. No butchers. The fresh meat on sale is delivered and sold out immediately... I will just go to warehouses than shop in this joke of a grocery store. Maybe if they concentrated on food more than all other BS they would have enough stock...

"Prime usually sold by grocery store meat counter." Are you kidding? Almost all grocery store beef is choice or select.

Rib roasts can be further defined as prime or not, depending on which parts of the ribs the cut comes from, and this grade is different than the prime grade that we distinguish from choice.

You can have prime grade prime rib roast, prime grade rib roast, choice grade prime rib roast, or choice grade rib roast.

This Aldi sale is probably for choice grade rib roast.

Choice is better than Select though. I dont believe the meat counter standard is Prime grade meat being that it accounts for approximately 10% of all beef.
