Is Grass-Fed Beef Worth $720 a Year? What You're REALLY Paying For (31-Year Butcher)

Two ribeyes in the same case, same size, same thickness. One has a little green sticker with a cow on it, and it costs fifteen dollars more. Steak once a week, and that sticker costs your family about seven hundred and twenty dollars a year. You picture that cow in a sunny field, and you feel a little guilty buying the cheap one. Here is the first surprise: the cow on the cheap steak very likely ate grass too. I am Earl. Thirty one years behind the meat counter. I sold both, I tasted both, and for years, when a customer held up the green sticker and asked me if it was better, I said yes. This is the answer I should have given them. Four rounds. The word on the label, and the two words that actually matter. Where the grass-fed steak in your store came from, and how to read the country on the back in ten seconds. The plate: how they look, smell, taste and cook, and the one mistake that made my first grass-fed ribeye chew like a shoe. And the money: what the sticker costs over a year, the sale week when grass-fed was the cheaper pack, and which one I buy with my own money. If you have not seen the steakhouse video, watch it next: six things a steakhouse kitchen does that yours does not. Nobody paid me for this. There is nothing here to buy. I do not work for any store, ranch or brand. Your homework: next time you see both in the case, turn the grass-fed package over. Tell me in the comments what country it came from, and whether a certifier was named. --- About this channel: this is a fully owned and operated media property.
