  1. We ran black angus for a while, then switched to Corriente cattle because they are just so much easier to manage. Pretty damn good meat as well, although most make a stop through the local rodeo circuit.
  2. Aren't the majority of those cross-breeds or older cows who's milk production is starting to wane? Or males obviously?
  3. Great marketing to use Holstein (dairy cows) to advocate for less beef consumption......;) #cowfacts
  4. They. Will. Kill. You. Full stop. They are never truly tame, and at best they tolerate you in their presence. They are bigger that cattle. Faster than cattle. And fuck-all meaner than cattle. After college I worked as a hunting guide briefly and they had them. We had a guy take one. Old bull, had to go so why not make a little money from him. Mean as hell. Was starting to injure the younger bulls. JFC, cleaning that big bastard. Good on you Plains Indians, because it was like dressing a small, furry car. Had to use a ATV to attach a strap and flip it over.
  5. Dude, you just don't get caught....nobody looks for the fat ones....
  6. Entertained that thought more than once after getting bucked off, bit, kicked, and/or stepped on....
  7. Horses are worse than both. Fragile, moody shits
  8. If you want a great, great follow on the socials: the_unhinger_rancher
  9. What's the old saying - how do you get a million ranching? Start with five,,,,,
  10. Tree cats, to water cats, to dusty & crusty fire cats. I'm in!
  11. Did you get a chance to visit Sobrino de Botín in Madrid, Spain? I desperately want to eat there one day. Oldest restaurant in the world. Roasted suckling pig to be exact.
  12. On the freezer route. Get what you can. Having is better than not having, but the upright freezer option is so much better than a chest. The chest freezers have a black hole in the bottom of them where shit just disappears.
  13. Iberico pork. Secreto. It will change your life....
  14. Buy directly from smaller cattle ranchers. A half cow, quarter cow, etc. It's cheaper and supports local ranchers. If you can, hunt. Even a mid-sized doe can provide enough meat for months. Lot's of landowners I know would welcome help on their place in exchange for a doe. Mesquite work. Road work. Fences. Feeder management and relocation. Dead hooker burial is optional. Just don't ask too many questions.
  15. Meh, back then, I was baby-wolverine. Indestructible...
  16. Now do voting
  17. I remember decades ago a group of us just finished floating the Guad. A day of WAY to much drinking and we were wrecked, tired, and hungry. Most places were closed, but we found a "Kettle" open late at night. Buffet style. I grabbed the bacon. And when I say I grabbed the bacon....I grabbed ALL the bacon, mushed it into a big softball sized wad, and proceeded to eat it like a fucking savage. Two hands. No forks. No plate. Just cave-manning a giant ball of greasy diner bacon.
