Title: GRASS FED BEEF
Post by: bigmikecox on August 31, 2012, 11:08:34 AM
Does it really make a difference eating grass fed beef as opposed to regular old beef?  Its not going to make or break or break your physique. No bbers ate that shit in the 90's and look how lean they got

back when I was eating meat I sometimes got it because I thought it was healthier but I don't know if that is true.

BIG DIFFERENCE.  I bought the Organic grass fed beef from costco.  HOLY FUCK!  burgers were never juicier and tastier.  Regular beef is so flavorless.

Even some chicks are the  BBQ who typically don't eat beef had a burger and raved about them.  All I added was salt and pepper

I eat it. I think it might have marginal benefits if you eat a lot of red meat. I only eat it because I buy from a farmer who kills my cow in the barn instead of sending it to a sub-distributor who fattens up the cows on corn prior to slaughter. Cows don't digest corn well, and it makes 'em get fat and blow up so there's more pound to the hoof at slaughter (i.e. cow is worth more).

He kills it for me, and sends it to the butcher and I get steaks and ground beef and roasts and what-not. Fill up a freezer for a few good months. Healthier than chicken from the grocery store, I think.

The taste is gamey though, if you're used to corn-fed beef. Takes a bit of getting used to if you're fussy. It's not gamey like venison or bear, for example...more like moose, if you've ever had that. And the meat can be a bit tougher, since it's not as marbled, and cooks differently too (mostly faster) since it's less fatty. With moose, the meat is a bit more tender since moose just eat water plants and it gives the meat a more tender texture - the grass does make the meat a bit tougher when there's no fat in it. Kind of like the way venison is a bit tougher. But if your butcher hangs it long enough, it can be pretty tender. Another interesting thing - the meat is deep blood red. Most meats in the store are so marbled and altered that the color isn't really natural - it's more orangy-red. Better concentration of heme iron in the grass fed meat, per bite.

I guess I wouldn't buy grass fed from a store. I just go right to the source. You'll find many farmers who are happy to sell you a cow - they make more money that way. And you save money vs the store and can ensure the quality of your product. My two cents....

Food in general I feel tastes better in Ireland/U.K. My family is Irish and been there many times, even the basics like brea and butter are way better.

Farmer:  "Here cow, here is some nice green grass. Isn't it tasty and delicious."

Cow:  "It's OK, but you're still going to shoot me in the head and hang me upside down, right?"

Bodybuilders got lean in the 90s because of a certain type of fish. It was cheap in Venice beach at the time and once they figured out it melted fat off them that's the only protein they ate during prep.
