They said it couldn't be done ....

They said that Gelbvieh meat could never be made to taste as good as CAB. After much discussion and debate I took on the challenge and took a Gelbvieh sirloin cap and rubbed it down with the following:

2 TBS salt - to make up for the mineral they can't seem to get enough of
2 TBS black pepper - to add some flavor to an otherwise bland tasting breed
2 TBS onion powder - to add some more flavor to well you know
2 TBS garlic powder - to mask the odor
4 tsp dried oregano - cause some Italians have been known to raise them and it only seemed logical
2 TBS paprika - to give it some semblence of red meat
2 tsp chili powder - to counter the sage brush taste

After a thorough dusting it almost looks like real beef.

Smoked it in hickory to mask the sagebrush taste

Finished and sliced. Wasn't a total waste of time cause it almost tastes like CAB. Almost. :hide:

They, whoever They are, were wrong and have been for years

Jo, the problem has been that you have been eating meat from a Gelbvieh that has been bred to live at high altitudes. Now you need to try a Tennessee, fescue fed Gelbvieh. You don't even need salt to make it taste good :mrgreen: Now that Italian cowboy you are talking about needs to send me his pick of the litter next year and I will make sure they get treated right and fed a nice fescue / clover diet. :cowboy:

High endophyte really toxic fescue I hope.

Won't that toxic fescue poison the meat? Hoss, I think he has a bull that keeps jumping the fence that would be a real money maker for you. Just think of all the vacation money you'd be saving and that equates to pure profit doesn't it?

Yeah it poisons it so bad I wouldn;t feed it to a dg, so I scarf it up instead

You measure ??? :lol:

Looks delicious Jo, but also know that Gelbvieh is a very good beef product or I would not be a GV seed stock producer and advocate of the breed . :tiphat: Agree with Dun about them "THEY" . ;-)

I'm with you HD. Just poking a little fun your way and toward those other two I thought needed their hair razzled a bit.
