Ok lads question for you.Whats the best beef out there,.i see in resturants a lot aberdeen angus steaks and lots of peope saying they wouldnt choose anything else.now im not a steak person at all.wouldnt thank you for one.but it just got wondering.i worked in a slaughterhouse for a few year but i only killed them never really looked into the best beef.its like i got to asda or tesco i do buy the best steak mince as that cheap shite is just nasty.I was just curious as to why angus beef seems to be the thing most go for.

I worked on an organic highland cattle farm for about 2 years. I rate it as the best ive had.

there quite small stocky cattle as opposed to other breeds ive seen.well i guess it makes sense they are bread solely for the table.cheers guys i was just thinking about it and was kinda curious.watched a programme on belgium blues,who were crossed with some other beaast to try and get to the same standard.

its all down to the marbling of the meat, its where a lot of the flavour comes from, if i was rearing a bullock for my own freezer it would be angus or hereford.

 

with belgiun blues they are so highly rated because of their double muscling... it makes them highly desirable for breeding with freisan cows to produce a decent size carcass for the factory

It also has a lot to do with how the meat is aged. Most supermarket meat is awful. All bright red and not aged. I always get things like beef from a quality butcher.

Kobe beef is the best in my eyes but very expensive any good quality beast slaughtered and hung correctly

On another note, my mother in law once went into the local butcher here and enquired about a joint of beef. He told her the price and in her usual Aberdonian way she exclaimed loudly: "Fit? That's awfa dear!"

 

He replied: "No love, it's off a cow actually..."
