[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 684571, member: 7509"] Well said. I like your approach = its about the same as mine. I have not had a lot of pure "grassfed" steaks that I want to remember...it may be possible to produce a good one but not easy nor common. This is one of the reasons why I am looking towards finishing them by grazing standing corn in the fall/winter. I've had people tell me that I should finish them on harvested corn in a concrete feedlot for best taste so they don't get too much exercise. I have also had folks tell me that my cattle don't get enough exercise.... I'm looking at grazing unharvested standing corn as a middle ground solving a number of problems including lots of cow days grazing at a tough northern time of year and reducing amount of purchased hay needed. Yet still producing tasty, well (IMF) marbled but not excessively (backfat) fat beef. Jim [/QUOTE]
