How many of you eat grass-fed beef? (tenderizers, restaurant, organic)

Do you eat grass-fed beef?

[mainebrokerman]

I've had quite a bit, ive pushed grass fed beef to more stores in maine than anyone else... trying to help local farmers. as part of a co-op thru a distribution center


it should say grass finished , most all cattle eat grass most of their lives, out on the range,,,
the western beef is "finished" on grain for 2-3 months for flavor and tenderness

you have to be careful with grass fed/finished, local beef, ive cut up 100's if not thousands of local critters...

yes you can have good luck, and i'll reserve judgement so I don't dump on this thread.

And organic chicken and only wild caught salmon...never ever never
farm-raised even if Whole Food sanctioned.
I could walk to the grass fed meat market! Very lucky...
Make bone broth (that's 36-72hr of cooking) with grass fed bones .

All green leafies and esp celery...org....never strawberries.

I don't eat if myself, but I've cooked it a few times for the family. They said it tasted "different".

I've had it, I can get it, but I don't get it all the time.

Wait- that sounds like my marriage.

It's too gamey for my taste. I've tried different kinds too. Some are less gamey but I can still detect the gamey flavor.

free range/grass-fed all the way through to slaughter weight for many years.

since 1999, our freezer has seen nothing but our own home raised beef, lamb, and poultry.

I've eaten feedlot finished beef when dining out in restaurants, and it's not as good as the grass-fed beef. Frequently, the restaurant (or their suppliers) use all kinds of marinades, tenderizers, and saucing to make their product more "palatable"; I find it does the opposite.

Almost had to check the "I don't eat beef" option since beef is ridiculously expensive these days.

I doubt you could find beef that has never munched on grass at some point. So....I'd say we all have.
