[QUOTE="nicolef43, post: 1743729, member: 42594"] VanC it IS possible to have high marbling and still be lean. Notice the EPD stats on the angus registry site. There are 2 separate EPD’s for marbling and fat. In a basic nutshell, Fat is measured outside of the muscle and Marbling is measured inside of the muscle (inter muscular fat). Ideally you want that fat epd low and the marbling epd high when selecting AI bulls to produce better carcass calves. Better if that feed is putting fat where it flavors the meat rather than putter fat that just gets trimmed off. [/QUOTE]
