🥩 Old cow? Poor-quality meat? Oxidized fat?
Some people seem to know exactly what good meat is just by looking at the color of its fat. But the reality is much more complex.
Genetics, diet, age, animal husbandry and living conditions all influence the characteristics of the meat and the color of its fat.
What if we're judging a cut of meat without really knowing what we're looking at?
An animal's age alone does not determine the quality of its meat. There's much more behind a great ribeye steak: marbling, ageing, texture, aroma and, of course, flavour.
Now I want to hear from you: do you still believe that yellow fat necessarily means lower-quality meat?
