We have the same issue here with local producers. Unless the burger is cooked/burned to "well", I can't eat it. A local restaurant serves it in their burgers so I have to order a chicken sandwich.
This "grass fed " label is a marketing stunt. What the hell do the other cows eat?......sawdust? A few years ago, we had a f___ton of moose meat to process so we took the burger to a local shop
with a great reputation and they took the liberty of grinding 10% of their local beef fat into our burger. They ruined several hundred pounds of good moose meat.
Local farmers grow barley successfully.....is that good for fattening a beef and if so, how long should they be on the barley? No corn here and very little oats.
Sawdust ? Yes ! And chicken chit too. I can’t remember the portioning but my friend owned a dairy and sawdust and chicken chit was a good portion of the feed. He also had a supply of bread trimmings from the bread plant. I think using chicken chit got banned but as far as I know sawdust is still part of the mix. He sold out to a developer and got out of the business.
