[QUOTE="townfarmer, post: 812931, member: 9305"] Highland beef definately has a unique taste compared to mainstream breeds of cattle. It is very lean meat. Due to the thick undercoat and shaggy outercoat they don't need to put down as much fat for insulation from the cold. The other factor is they are slow growing and take a lot longer to finish meaning you normally end up consuming an older animal than if you were raising a mainstream breed. I wouldn't say they taste better than Angus (or other breeds) but do taste different. Andrew [/QUOTE]
