So upon arriving in Ireland I we had to go shopping and buy groceries and lots of other stuff. Well we picked up steaks or maybe it was a roast anyway it was beef. And it was fantastic. The flavor was better the color of the meat before cooking looked better, and well it was a much better cut of meat than I was really expecting. Ireland is not

That is just so NOT fair.
I now have to start watching what I eat and you go and set up a food sight,
and about beef no less. And me being hungry after a whole day of work after a bunch of half days and no days. Why I have half a mind and I'm gonna come over thar and
Oh look Ted, a goat!

I so miss my grandparents' beef- they raised registered Polled Herefords as more of a hobby than a business (the money making was in wheat and oats and such), and every year they would butcher some steers, and everyone in the family would get a freezer full of meat. I remember day long trips home on the train with a big styrofoam cooler full of frozen beef. That stuff was the BEST. Grass-raised, grain-feedlot-fed, no hormones, no antibiotics, no nothing, straight from my grandparents' farm to our freezer. SO GOOD.

That's at least part of the reason K and I don't eat much beef. It's just not the same. :P

Mmmmm. Yes, please do keep describing things like Irish beef. Pardon me while I drool.

I'm definitely going to have to try that while I'm over there. I experimented with organic no hormone/no antibiotic beef here and was not sick like usual, so I think your initial suggestion about that was right on.
