Well, after that s**tshow, we took it to a small town butcher who hung it for something like 21 days before cutting it up. You could cut it with a fork.
The whole ordeal would have been easier if the butcher didn't insist on it being delivered alive!

Yeah, steers squirm around a lot if I make them ride in the back seat.
How did you deliver a live steer?

In the front compartment of a stock trailer the part with the roof, and two wore out, pissed off horses in the back behind him with a gate between. We dang near choked it to death d**gging it in there!
Ole Hug prolly could conquered that sucker in about 10 minutes, but it took us fifty cent cowboy's half a day.
At least Tim knew how to throw a rope, and I knew how to let it slip through my hands at high speed.

Sounds like me trying to load a heifer once. Took half a day. Turned out to be prime beef. Raised it in a dinky pen with a always full manger of alfalfa and a quart of grain a day, I never knew a fat short legged cow could run so fast.

One of the saddest things about China is that they don't hang their beef... I get mine freshly butchered at the Muslim mparket... Good beef.. But tough as all hell... Only good for stews and stir fries...

Looking forward to Canada this summer... Although I agree with Mikey that Canadian beef is overrated... Still pretty decent though...

My cousins have got some deer and elk waiting for me... And my mom smoked up app bunch of bear jerky for a friend last fall...

My uncle raises a few cows each year for meat... Told my cousin and I we could each have a twenty if we could bring one in to the she'd for slaughter... We were twelve and eleven... Longest, hardest work I ever did for a twenty...

Has anyone tried Dexter beef? Grass fed is the big thing, but I want grain fed.

Lol! We used to raise a couple of pigs every year to butcher. It took me one go round to figger out to make a gap in the fence, back the trailer into it, and feed them in the trailer for a week. They walk right in, pull the trailer out, close the door, and off to the butcher!

I feed out a couple of hogs at times when I get hungry for pork. Several years ago I had a 300 pound hog I couldn't load, so I threw a loop around the back legs and pulled it into the trailer with MY horse. That worked.

It's easier to feed em in the trailer, and let em walk in.

Grass fed beef is the vegans' way of making you h**e beef. If it don't sell, they put laces on it and sell it fer steel toe work boots.
