[QUOTE="cbcr, post: 1649534, member: 16303"] Very good comments Jeanne! We did some research I think it was early last year, the only reason the Angus breed was able to have better carcass qualities was due to being fed to heavier weights. What was surprising was the fact that almost 25% of the beef consumed in the US is from dairy beef (Holstein most notably) and their is a higher percentage of the dairy beef that grades choice and prime than the beef breeds. It was also noted in the research that there are two other breeds that can have as much or even more of an impact on carcass quality than Angus and that was Fleckvieh and Hereford. CAB has done a great job on their marketing, that that is mainly what it is "marketing". CAB is supposed to be animals that are at least 51% black hided, but their are also other breeds and colors that have qualified for CAB. [/QUOTE]
