[QUOTE="ClinchValley86, post: 1815244, member: 38595"] I haven't had a problem with fescue tainted meat. Most of what I've put in others freezers were grazed on mix grass/legume/forb pastures and given corn the last 30 days. Maybe it's the diversity keeping the flavor good. I feel it's hard to make blanket statements like that about fescue. Soo many variables. If it was a sprayed pasture with nothing but fescue...I could see that holding some merit. Just to be on the careful side of things, I've chosen to have grass finished animals processed in fall. Got a good mix of both warm and cool seasons growing. Probably 25+ species. I'm especially curious what the ragweed is going to do. Have considered getting some high energy alfalfa hay to feed them the last week or two to flush em out. But then, again, I think the diversity is going to have everything diluted out. [/QUOTE]
