let's assume grassfed/grain finished for best combo of flavor and marbling


hangar
rib eye
short rib
clod + chuck (hamburger/ground beef)
brisket
skirt
flank
strip
bottom sirloin/tri-tip
T-Bone
tenderloin
prime rib
porterhouse
top sirloin
round/roast cuts
shank (stews + soups)

I think there's a ton of overpriced, disappointing prime rib out there. But some tri-tip, marinated then grilled, can be tough as hell but full of flavor and perfectly suitable for a cookout vibe.
ah yes, so it was the fancy pants

when i think of prime rib, i think of good home made stuff. warm, tender. delicious

when i think of tri tip, i think of pain and sadness

I'd say the worst food I've ever had is the stuff that's billed and priced as something really special, and winds up being totally forgettable (looking at you, David Chang)

What about choice or select rib?

And how does a porterhouse rank below the strip steak. It’s the same cut except with a filet added.
