[QUOTE="MurraysMutts, post: 1637367, member: 39373"] The first animal we did, a few years ago, was fairly young. He only weighed about 750. And that was after feed for a few months. He did not do well. Would've been great burger. Very very lean and the steaks were not tender. Edible but not a pleasant eating experience. I think u have to have a good animal that converts feed to intramuscular fat, fed at the right time. Weather that be age wise or size wise. They dont all grow the same. Lol The last one we had done, did pretty good. Evidently we got it just right. This one was way too old to put on feed IMO. Just a waste of feed. Or maybe not... I've heard tell, the feed for a few weeks can help with flavor coming off grass. This one is not terrible. Just not what I was expecting. I do eat a lot of steak. First time I gave blood, they took a sample, and about freaked out. They asked me if i eat a lot of red meat. I said, you ain't from around here are you??? Lmao [/QUOTE]
