After kosher slaughter, meat must be "koshered" before it becomes acceptable for consumption. The process of koshering removes any blood that may remain in meat. To kosher a beef carcass, only the forequarter is used. Although there is no Biblical prohibition against the use of a whole carcass, the process of deveining beef is less complex in the forequarter. First, veins, arteries and certain nonacceptable fats are removed from meat by highly trained specialists.
