[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 1846730, member: 637"] Here you go [USER=19683]@lithuanian farmer[/USER]. This was posted on the "Myostatin Tender Meat Cattle" site on Facebook. Odd the comments made about double muscled cattle that have never tried the meat. If they try it, then they will know why people raise these cattle. Pieds and Blues....... Try it and then slam it if you don't like it. I tried double muscle meat and that is why I swapped from Angus to Pieds. The post below is about the Blues. Imagine having to eat beef that is so easily cut that it is described like cutting butter. Even if you don't have good teeth, you can chew this kind of beef.
