GRASS-FED vs GRAIN-FED steak experiment which is best?

Team grass fed 😂🎉

I always find it weird when Americans say "cows that eat grass have a weird flavor"

as a wild game fan I wonder if I'd choose differently and as long as it's tender enough I don't mind some bite...

New to sous vide cooking. Just had a question about grass fed vs grain fed and surprise when I googled my question you popped up and I knew I was going to get an impartial viewpoint. My guess is you grew up eating grass fed, it wouldn't be an issue...at least that's what I think. Grain fed it is. Cheers

Doesn't grass-fed beef have a lot more Omega-3s versus Omega 6s? it's like the cow is under less stress less cortisol which equals into more balanced omega-6s and omega-3s

There is more modern research showing grass fed is WAY better for you nutritional wise fyi.

You cooked the grass fed and the grain fed for the same length of time, which is why the grass fed was tougher. The grass fed is not meant to be cooked for the same length of time as the grain fed due to the grass fed being lower in fat content and slightly smaller. So no wonder it was tougher due to the way you cooked it!

Well, your taste buds have been adulterated by standard grain fed beef.

Number B?

Thanks more,better meat for me I don't care for taste over hesalth.

It is personal preference,i eat grass fed,also were i get my meat the farm is 15 min from my house.

I , without doubt, would prefer grain fed.

The big thing for me is I'm allergic to a lot of grains including wheat.

We much prefer grain fed flavor and additional fat that grain fed has. To each his own.

Cows bodies are meant for grass thats it. Everything else is bs

i would prefer lean strong tasting steak cut.

Healthier isn’t always better imo 😋 give me all the GMOs baby!!

No doubt,you prefer unhealthy food

Those jazz hands are great

Eat Grain-fed if you want your chances of getting fatter higher.
Eat Grass-fed (and Finished) for a healthier body and therefore mind, too.
Eat Free Range 100 pc Organic for the better option.
And beef tastes better Well Done, too, so please stop the arrogant and snobbish traditions that chef's have on beef needing to be cooked rare-to-med-rare.

That's a bold-faced lie I'm a chef and I cook grass-fed steaks that are grass-fed finished

Grass-fed cows that are grass-fed finished are a 100% grass-fed and I think that's fed cows taste better and I know my do my research they're better for your

Haha we're you searing steak on the curb of a street or parking lot?

Thank you for making this video. I just Subscribed !

it would seem grass-fed would gain at dry-ageing more... More taste, more tenderising...

Meat must reach at least 100 DegC for 10 mins all the way to the inside to be safe to eat, or else you ar3 susceptible to parasites in your guts

The biggest difference for me with grass fed steak compared to grain fed is that when I’m eating a grass fed I never feel bloated. Whenever I buy choice or prime beef I always feel super full and bloated. But whenever I’m eating a grass fed I feel awake, almost energetic

Grain-fed will always be superior

Grass fed beef is healthy because of the omega 3s

I think the whole grass fed "organic" fad is just a means to increase revenue and mask inflation

This is a shock to me because the biggest meat companies in my country pride themselves on being Grass-fed.

Once I went to a restaurant that had grass fed steaks. You can definitely taste the grassiness in the steak. I do not like it either.

Grain fed is unhealthy

It’s a shame the grains we’re feeding the cows are the monocrops contributing dramatically to carbon emissions and destroying local ecosystems. If we just let cows be cows and graze them in a regenerative fashion, the bugs/birds/rodents/etc come back and the soil is healthy again. I try to do my part and buy local grass fed because it’s supporting a small farm AND it’s much easier on the environment, but I do think grain fed tastes a bit better and it’s cheaper 😢

What happened to you guys?

Anyone with half a brain knows cows were made to eat grass not grains.

Two fat guys talking about which beef "tastes" better.

grain fed is fiat food, and it kills you!

That is some very low quality grass fed grass finished steaks you got. All the grass-fed we got by us we got just a little bit of marbling. They must be fertilizing their grass that the cows are eating or they're lying to you that it's grass-finished because under the law they call it grass finished if when they eat grass for the last 6 months of its life. So they plump it up real big and then they finish it off a grass at the end and that's probably why you got so much marbling. Cows aren't supposed to eat grain

This is all about what your used to from growing up. Go overseas and have only grass fed/finished beef and you’ll realize that’s the real taste of beef and it’s much better. You’ll hate grain beef after. It’s super bland.

You need to compare the same breed, same age, same sex, etc. in order to derive useful information. Discounting genetics & environment renders tests like this relatively meaningless.

I do farm in a semi arid area in Southern Afrika, where we don't grow crops and cattle are raised on natural grass until they are marketed at 30 to 36 month. Only some minerals are supplemented like Fosphate. The meat of this steers have a minimum of Omega 6 which is responsible for cerrain health issues. Treatment of the meat is most imported. To get the correct flavor and tenderness it must be stored for 30 days plus at about 2 degrees Celcius. You can not feel see or taste the difference of grain and grass fed meat. The label on the package should indicate where the animal was raised, slaughtered and packed.


problems. You can't taste grass or grain fed meat. Meat has to be hanged in a cool room for a couple of weeks. This meat will be tasty and soft.

After eating only grass fed for about a year I recently had a grain fed steak and there was this strong chemical taste that I cannot explain other than it was just unnatural. Usually I can wait a while before brushing my teeth after a meal but I had to brush them right after I ate that steak. The aftertaste was so gross and overwhelming.

Grass fed is way better if done right. We hang it for 30 days before butchering. Changes the taste and tenderness

Coming back to rewatch this video now and seeing how much you've grown since this is massive. You deserve every bit of it. You taught me so much about cooking across the board I can't even begin to thank you for how much you've improved my cooking in every aspect. Thank you Guga.

I want to like grass fed beef but I can spot them a mile away. Even on hot dogs. I'm sticking to pasture raise eggs and call it a day. I am still super mad I chose grass fed beef for father's day! The flavor you're looking for is "gamy" and yes, sometimes you can almost taste the grass but if a dog had pissed on it first. That's the smell you're trying to describe LOL

FAKE!!!!!!!!

Grass fed has a better omega 6 to omega 3 profile. Lowering your omega 6 profile is better for overall health. Grass fed bison has 4 omega 6 to 1 omega 3, grain fed has 24 omega 6 to 1 omega 3. When comparing foods you should clean your pallet with water first between comparison.

I’m wondering if you guys preferred the grain fed because that’s what you are used to. I’ve also heard that the type of grass affects the flavor. Which makes me wonder what type of grass yields the best flavor.
