Hello
A question..
We have butchered plenty in the past, but ran onto something that we have not encountered before..
The steer was shot and he dropped so fast he did not know what hit him, He was bled immediately, and opened up. We found something we had not seen before, there were tiny tiny blood clots on the outside of the esophagus and on the outside of the guts in the fat tissue, especially near the spine. You could open them and see it was a blood clot.. The heart seemed rather flat and the holes in the heart itself were rather large.. When the skin was taken off, on the hind quarter was tiny spots that looked like blood clots, but were more like tiny cauliflower when pricked with the tip of a knife, Any ideas what on earth might have been going on with him, and if it is even safe to eat???? The steer was about 15 months- 800 pounds grass fed
