[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 506997, member: 1604"] Centennial, Colo., Feb. 6, 2008 – The components of “taste” that determine just how satisfying it is to eat beef are flavor, juiciness and tenderness. [b]But tenderness has been identified as the first and most important of the three among U.S. beef consumers, according to a new beef checkoff-funded report.

Daryl Tatum, Ph.D., Keith Belk, Ph.D., and John Scanga, Ph.D., recently completed an executive summary titled Post-Harvest Practices for Enhancing Beef Tenderness as a companion piece to the 2007 Pre-Harvest Cattle Management Practices checkoff-funded report. “Beef tenderness has been determined to be a very important component of consumer satisfaction.
