[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 6169"] The secret to CAB success is the consistant quality of the meat. Since CAB was sponsered and Paid for by Black Angus Breeders it requires a predominantly black hide. This was done to promote the use of black angus seedstock and black cattle were mostly angus heritage. If your animals do not meet the requirements of CAB find the grid that rewards you for your animals traits. How many of you know what your animals grade at the slaughter house? pat > Okay, let's get something > straight.
