We finished raising 3 Holstein/ Jersey steers that we got from a dairy farm this spring. It cost a lot to feed them for 18 months, we feed them round bails and grain from the feed mill, we grained them twice a day…. The absolute best beef I have eaten… And a true joy to raise. Thanks for the videos

Would that be still considered grass fed? We have to pay at least double to triple for grass fed beef.

Excellent video Trinity. My wife & I have started buying all of our meets from a local family butcher. They buy their beefs from local ranchers who all follow USDA protocols for raising & health of the animals. They have sought & achieved USDA certifications for their operations. The beef we receive from them is incredible. Even the hamburger they produce is excellent. Additionally, they are getting into pork production as well. Can't wait.

What a tough gig Trinity... I bet that was a blast. Funny story, we used to get the bull calves from a local dairy for free. (I learned very young how to make them steers) My folks had a bread and milk business and we would raise those steers (and usually a hog) for two years on alfalfa pellets, bread and milk returns. Who knew we were eating the best tasting beef around. Thanks for sharing and I can't wait to see what's next.

I can verify that holstein and holstein cross produce a delicious, quality cut of meat. They just take forever to finish out. The last 2 holstien steers we fed out took nearly 2 years and dressed out at over 1000 lbs. They were sure tasty critters. Glad to see Dr Chaffee there! Love your channel and all the awesome content about the cattle ranching life! Yours is one of my favorite channels😊

you have to try jersey steer grass fed finished on whole corn and pellets .You can cut the steaks with your forks .that was all we raised for our freezer

I grew up on a Holstein dairy farm in MT. Holstein, to me, is tough. But we only butchered old or broken leg wounded occasionally. (Sold the pure Holstein bull calves to whoever wanted them). However, we always bred our first calf heifers with angus bulls, for ease of birth. Those Holstein/Angus cross animals are AWESOME eating.

Love the heavenly music with each bite!

That was awesome! Definitely not where I expected the beef to come from! 😂

My favorite was a Charolais X Jersey drop calf that I raided for 22 months. 1200lbs hanging.

I grew up near Austin , MN and later in life moved to the Seattle area and the beef there has no flavor. I missed that mid-west beef. Made my mouth water watching you eat. Thanks for sharing

What a fascinating video. The first time I tasted steak was when I was about 7 or 8 years old. It was from a Holstein from my uncle's farm in Wisconsin.

Studies have been carried out and the best meat is Salers crossed Angus. The taste of Salers and the marbling of Angus make a perfect mix.

Great video! So interesting!

WOW! total surprise. great video

LOL, the sound effects when you ate that first bite!

As a newbie to Carnivore diet, I genuinely enjoyed this! Funny, I'm originally from MI and moved to CA decades ago and always missed beef from back home as I thought it somehow tasted so much better. Now, I'm understanding the influences that could shape that factor. Anyways, I love and am a fan of your content as I'm learning so much of life of rancher - something where many of us are not exposed to, but who's product touch our daily lives. I especially love the personal way it's presented. I hope you continue to grow in your effort. Thank you and God Bless!

Makes sense. Grew up eating hoilstein steers on the ranch in Fort Bridger Wyoming

Sign me up to judge! 😋 Such an enjoyable video Trinity! Thanks for sharing!

Of course it was. This should be no surprise. Angus are up there sinply because of the percentages. Dairy beef is world reknown for marbling, tenderness, and flavor.

A Holstein? I've eaten a lot of Holstein, and never ever had a good one!! Lol. Very interesting! Thanks for your review.

Super interesting

Here at Cook Brothers, whitepine ranch we raise Scottish highlander cattle, we think it's the very best beef there is. Some people think it tastes wild however.

I enjoyed this, thank you❤

Before I watch this video I’ll say Holstein beef is the best flavor beef hands down. It just takes forever and a day to grow them out and finish them. Ok just my two cents.

I heard one rancher say "we sell the black ones & eat the red ones."

Wow great video . Iam in western New York these Holstein better watch out because hunting season is coming 😂❤❤

I really like the taste of angus finished on MOBC! I was hanging with on every bite!

when I was a boy from 8 till I joined the service I milked our cows morning and night little jursey gals, milking shorthorn or Guernsey breeds, but we would add a milk breed day old bull calf with our newborn calf. Back then they were $5 each and put on weight as easily as our Herford steer. Herford's were the angus of the time and I think the Herford is still the best taste and Very well marbled . But grass makes a difference I think the the best taste comes from Gallatin and Sweet Grass counties and I might add custom slaughter.

Very cruel to wave those steaks in front of the camera. 😊 They all look delicious. I've never heard of Holstein's used for meat. But then never thought about them other than dairy cows. Have to see if I can find some locally to try. Thanks for the info. Have a blessed day.

Holstein make better beef than you would think

Can you take me along next time Trinity? Please? You sure have a great job young man.

Back in the early 80s, me and a buddy bought a jersey drop calf at the sale barn. We bought him to grow up as a practice bull for rodeoin and, ya know, for eatin. Some of the best steaks I've had. NOW, there's a guy on the other side of town groin scottish highland cattle, he swears by them as an excellent healthy lean beef. He also says theyre better at brush control than any goat. I do like the taste and texture of highland cattle. I kinda wanna get a highland bull and a Holstein or jersey cow and see what kinda steaks they make. 🤠

I wonder why Holstein cows aren't common on the typical Texas ranch. A lot of Angus around here.

This doesn't surprise me at all actually. Our family's favorite beef is when we slaughter, is a jersey cross. This last one was a 50% jersey, 50% Gelbvieh. Melt in your mouth beef(even the "tough cuts") 2nd favorite is a 100% Hereford. The smell and texture is incredible with the Herefords! All our beef is strictly grass fed and finished. It's not necessarily lean, it depends on the genetics. We had a hereford/ angus cross heifer that wouldn't breed because she was too fat. Believe it or not, not a lick of grain was fed and we slaughtered her at almost 2.5 yrs old and 2100lbs. She was too fatty for our liking, but the folks we sold her meat to, really enjoyed it. This was a great video! It kinda breaks the stigma, that angus beef is the be all, and end all. Alberta, Canada

We raised limousin in Dillon and Eureka - 😊

Ever tryed a jersey/ longhorn cross with a black anuges? Thats a very good 3 way cross. We would pick up the longhorn/ jersey cross when we could . A dairy would breed there cows to a longhorn. The ropers were paying for the calfs to rope .

On the breed I like the aunges for the cut out and temperament But from my gggrandfather to me milk breeds are very good they have more glob type fat than marbling mix with the aunge helps But the meat taste good with the extra fat and the way we did it its tender to.

Now if you could go immediately to test for the best milk that would be great.

Hummmm - the beef i was reared on from age 5 to 19 was a cross bred either Guernsey heifer or Hierford (?) heifer bred to a Brangous (?) bull - we would rear the calf up untill 6 months old then sell them - we would keep 1 out of every 5 or 6 for us to smoke and eat - sometimes one of the heifers would have twins at which point we would sell the bull and give the heifer to the owner of the bull for him to bred with his bulls -

Nice

Without watching this yet, my first guess was South Dakota would have the best. The best steak I’ve had was from The Butcher Block in Spearfish, SD. I’ve also had great steaks at Buffalo Jump Steakhouse in Beulah, WY. Yesterday we had some really tasty fillets from Deemo’s Meats in Ennis, MT. I prefer meat from SD and MT.

I don’t think it’s that surprising, that the top beef came out of Michigan. While I’d believe the flavor is heavily influenced by the finish, the texture has to be a result of the grass they eat. Michigan has lush grass, and relatively flat land, to help them be lazy. The breed is a little surprising. On another note, I’ve eaten a few Australian steaks. They were not good. I’ve yet to eat a steak from Texas that I enjoyed either.

It’s a tough job, but someone has to do it.

A fatten roping steers. Hands down. And of coarse cooked right.

Best place to buy steaks to ship to my home?

Medium rare with a crust, perfect

Right?!!👍

It’s subjective. Can’t say what everyone likes.

Before I even watch this video I will say that beef is very regional and what you grew up on for the most part. I was in the Navy for 24 years and tried steak all over this country. I did not like the beef in Hawaii if it was local, not sure if the environment and feed on the big island is what gave the local beef it's strange flavor. Was not a big fan of beef on the East Coast, particularly, around the Carolinas. I love the beef I grew up on the Texas and also love the beef in the Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana area.

Best I’ve ever had personally was Piedmontese/Angus cross and then later I had Piedmontese/Jersey crossed with Angus and it was very similar. Just wouldn’t recommend Piedmontese damns. Angus cows were better mothers and easier to handle and way better delivery.

Where's the steak knives LOL

JERSEY IS GOOD BEEF ALSO

My mom swears up and down Jersey DNA makes her home grown beef taste better.

Angus = marketing

Person Washing State ? Most of your. meat comes from Texas Nebraska Colorado

No Wagyu based cattle???

Texas has entered the chat everyone else can leave with their dignity or be destroyed

It truly has to be a hard thing to do because of one's pallet I myself prefer a medium to well-done cook steak 🥩 and I always have to pay the price because someone doesn't like to have to cook it more than what others would accept it but it is a biblical issue with me so I say it is a taste difference if the meat is left with more blood or a less blood the meat is going to have a different taste to it are curiosity gets the cat it is in Genesis 9 verses 3 through 4 Leviticus 17:11,12+13-16

There is nothing wrong with being a beef snob.

I sure don't like these results! I ride pens in a feed yard! I have for about 30 years, and dairy cattle are a nightmare to deal with! I hate em! Say anything, but Holstein Or Jersey! Drive me nuts! Drive me to drinking! They suck!
