Grass Fed Beef?
Permalink  
 


So, G is on this new "healthy" kick and is eating all kinds of weird stuff.  Whatever... he shops, he can do what he wants to do...

But this weekend, he bought grass fed beef.  While he was cooking it, I had to leave the room it smelled so bad.  Then we tried to eat it.  SOOOO nasty.  He talked to his butcher friend and he said that most people say that the first time they cook/eat it.  It was like it had gone bad.  A sour/acid taste.

We didn't get sick, so I'm guessing it wasn't bad.  Anyone have any experience with grass feed meat?

But now that I think about it, DF didn't care for it. Didn't hate it but didn't care for it

Yes, the first time we ate it, it smelled and tasted a little funny. But now we wouldn't eat anything else! The smell is much more "gamey" because it's a more wild diet.

I mentioned in a post several months ago that I thought corn fed beef was delicious and that I did not care for grass fed. (Seem to recall LL replied that corn fed was terrible; grass fed good....)

I bought some once at TJ's. Once. We hated it and never bought it again.

Corn feed beef is the absolute best in my opinion.

It's hard to get a steer up to a good butcher weight fed only on grass. Well, not hard, it takes longer, a lot longer.

I've had grass fed and didn't notice the difference. But, we had raised the steer ourselves, so that may make a difference. Alfalfa vs prairie hay does give beef different tastes.

The problem I have with corn fed beef is the 1) it's all genetically modified corn feed; and 2) the cows are basically standing in their own **** while they eat it.

I may be wrong.

But I seem to remember our cows eating corn, hay, and grass.

And they stood in all kinds of crap.

The grossest thing was the salt lick.

They'd slobber and snot all over it and then spend forever running their tongue up one nostril then the other, over and over again.

 Cows will stand in their own **** in a huge pasture.

We call the end product cow pies for a reason. LOL

Even after the cows tongue had been up its nose before it liked you?

Dry cow pies make great bases for softball or baseball...

They work for a fuel source for heat in the most desperate of emergency situations, too.
