[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 492097, member: 1604"] I haven't found any difference in taste between bulls an steer beef. The bull beef will be leaner slightly though. "RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Data on the bulls and steers slaughtered at the University of Idaho are presented in table 1. Although bulls and steers were essentially the same age (18 to 19 months), bull carcasses had lower (P<.01) marbling scores and quality grades as compared to steers. Most research, including the summary by Field (1971) has shown similar differences. [b]However, taste panel scores for flavor, juiciness and overall satisfaction of broiled top round steaks were not significantly different between bulls and steers.[/b] Panel members were able to detect a slight difference (6.1 vs 6.6) in tenderness, [b]however, the difference was not statistically significant[/b]. Shear values also indicated that bulls were slightly less tender (P<.05) than steers. The range in shear values between bulls (6 to 14 kg)" [/QUOTE]
