The difference between grass fed and corn fed is astounding. Corn fed doesn’t even taste good to me anymore.

If it isn't corn fed and aged with lots of fat marbling I won't eat it.

Grass fed is inedible crap!!!

Yes it is, and the purpose of grain fed cattle is to get rid of the “off” flavors picked up by the cattle. You really should try some beef that has been eating on pasture with some wild onions growing in it! You will never badmouth grain fed beef again.

I agree that grass fed is much better tasting, its beefier tasting, not mild almost sweet like corn fed. I was raised on grass fed beef though, my grandfather raised cattle, never fed them corn.

I believe corn fed came about for fattening the cattle faster, more than anything else.

Some people prefer big fatty steaks from corn, some don’t.

Most people who have never cooked anything but corn finished, have a hard time cooking grass fed as you cook at a lower temp, and take it off at a sooner cooking state, as it continues to cook much longer after being removed from heat. This is the reason for most complaints people have about grass fed, similar to complaints about venison.

I can say,that I have never met someone personally, that didn’t prefer grassfed after eating a steak that was cooked properly, but I’m sure they are plenty out there.
