You have not eaten Beef until you eat Black Angus from Virginia. The people that raise Black Angus feed them Fresh Grass and Oats only! They never use the so-called Cattle feed to fatten them up. They never use any kind of steroids or artifical means to make them grow. Every ounce of the Black Angus comes from natural means.
The Angus are raised in small groups in large fields and with plenty of fresh water to drink and Tall green grass under their feet to eat. Then they butcher them with A single large caliber bullet to the brain so that they never make them suffer or panic.
I had heard of this way of raising cattle but until I moved to Virginia I had never had any of this Beef. The Prime Rib and the Porterhouse steaks from the Black Angus, (when cooked correctly), just melts in your mouth and even when its cooked by a novis it tastes great. The ground Beef made into Hamberger patties are the best I've ever had.
Once you eat Black Angus no other beef will ever taste good, everyone I know will always compair other beef to Angus and the Angus always wins.
So My choice isn't Beef over Lamb. It's Black Angus over everything else.
I no longer buy any Beef but Black Angus. I do eat Pork,Bacon,chicken and fish now and then but, I never ever eat Lamb. [img]graemlins/twocents.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/wink10.gif[/img]
