[QUOTE="Rookie, post: 63364, member: 817"] If ya hang that critter 25 to 30 days you may lose more than its worth. That is an awfully long time. I know my butcher would charge a pretty good fee to do that and would probably advise against it. You see, another term for "aging" would be decomposition. A more descriptive word would be rotting. :???: Even in a cooler there is a limit on what ya can get away with. If proper feed is administered, 14 days should be plenty of hang time for any steer. Some claim rolled milo makes beef more tender. Mine get pure cracked corn and good brome hay for the last 70 days or so of their lives. Never had any complaints on taste or tenderness either one. Good luck. There is a thread entitled "How long should I let her hang" that you should probably look at. george [/QUOTE]
