[QUOTE="WORANCH, post: 427948, member: 21"] OK I was'nt going to post on this again but you brought it up . First your chart just says longhorn it does'nt say what cut of meat was compared to the others . I'm sure LH meat is leaner with no fat . But I did notice on the web site it stated: 1 Be careful not to overcook it. 2 Watch it closely while cooking 3 Add damp mesquite or cherry wood chips to the fire for an extra flavor. 4 Remember, the meat cooks quickly so watch it carefully. I think this is just warnings not to over cook, are it will be like shoe leather. But is over cooking ,medium rare or medium? and it may have no taste. Maybe you can help me by posting a link showing shear force test on LH beef compared to other breeds to show how tender it is . Now lets look at the other link you posted Tradition & Nostalgia. The Texas Longhorn is the living symbol of the Old West. Wherever the western influence is desired-front pasture, cattle drive, or tourist attraction-you’ll find a demand for this magnificent breed. Horns & Hide. The Texas Longhorn is worth money even after it has outlived its usefulness as a beef producer. Top dollars are paid for the horns, skulls, and mounts that are used in the popular Southwestern decor of businesses and homes. Even TLBAA will admit LH are raised for Tradition & Nostalgia and Horns & Hide.. Warpaint said this was not about other breeds but statements like this to beginers leaves the impression that other breeds have to be watched 24 hours aday while calving . THATS NOT TRUE . I have not pulled a calf for size or lost a cow durring calving in along time , does it happen, yes . LH are no more Disease/Parasite Resistance than most other breeds . The first vac. given to our cattle was for Bangs in the mid 70s . LH breeders are almost as bad as Angus breeders about claiming their breed is the cure all for the cattle business. I know all the LH breeders will be all over me but I want to ask one thing . ANSWER TRUTHFULY what % of your calves do you sell as culls (bulls and heifers)? well 2 things Do you ever ultersound your bulls or calves? I will have more later I have a few chores to do now .. :D [/QUOTE]
