[QUOTE="js1234, post: 1380306, member: 17596"] I love what Charolais bulls do on very common poor framed cows like longhorns. The proof is in the pudding, a huge push was made to infuse lots and lots of Charolais bulls into the Mexican cowherd in the 70's and 80's. The typical Mexican prior to that basically looked like a roping steer. The typical Number 1 Mexican now is good framed, not too much extra skin, still enough ear to do well in tough country, good capacity to put on lean muscle and about 70% yellow or some shade of Char cross. While Laura's Lean Beef owns very few fed cattle to grade, focusing on feeder cows and butcher bulls, basically all the calves they do purchase on videos or out of the country to send to grass and then the feedlot or directly to a yard depending on their weight are Charolais sired. Their head of procurement tells me they feel Charolais is the only Continental breed that can consistently yield as lean as they expect. [/QUOTE]
