You’ll have to forgive me please

Filed under: News, Not Steak — quacky @ 1:16 pm

This brief dearth of any substantial writing brought to you by a one-time gig writing something for These Jerks.

Meanwhile, stay tuned for another steak mosaic and maybe I’ll drag something out of the pile of Drafts stinking up the place.

Cows Unite

Cows Unite

Cows Unite

Apparently, cows “want” to walk around in the sunshiny green meadows, and to not be treated like machines.

I wonder if they also “feel resentment” about being cut up and grilled?

Whatever your point of view (and I hope you’re here because your point of view is that you really, really love to eat the bountiful goodness provided for our health and pleasure by God’s wonderous creation, Cattle) … I just want to say, they’re talking about DAIRY cows. It’s DAIRY cows who are trying to band together to demand better working conditions in the production of MILK! This has 100% NOTHING whatsoever to do with the cattle whose sole purpose on this earth is as a vessel for the conversion of vegetable matter into life-giving beefsteak which brings us closer to holiness.

Thank you very much,
The SteakFeed Team.

Well, here we are.

I’m not sure you’ll notice, unless you take your cue from the empty cartons laying around and the stale odor, but we’ve just recently come up at some new hosting digs.

Yeah, the place is looking a little bit of a shambles. That big ugly green box across the top; the logo hanging out one of the side windows; the little doodads and crap that have settled back down into a jumble on the bottom floor.

But we’ll get the grill fired up here pretty soon, and tidy up a bit. We think you’ll like it here a little bit better. It’s faster, for sure. And we have a bunch more flexibility with what we can do. We might even put up a Steak Wiki out back, who knows?

Keep us in your thoughts, drop by for a drink and to socialize every now and then.

It’s Not Kobe, But It Is Wagyu

Filed under: News, Reviews, Steak Rating — Steakfeed @ 1:25 pm

I’m studying a WSJ Online article today about Wagyu beef. It’s quite interesting. I think it was way easier figuring out another very esoteric and expensive proposition: buiding diamonds. Get this:

…finding good Wagyu can be a complicated proposition. Cross-breeding among the cattle is common, and most products on the market are actually half-Wagyu, half-Angus, says American Wagyu Association spokesman Charles Gaskins. Some ranchers and retailers aim for a higher percentage — Morgan Ranch says its cows are mostly 75% to 80% Wagyu, while Lobel’s says it requires a minimum of 87.5%. There are no federal rating systems for Wagyu — unlike most steak sold in supermarkets, labeled by quality from “select” to “prime,” it’s not graded by the U.S. Agriculture Department. Finally, almost every ranch has a proprietary blend of grain and roughage for the cattle’s diet, and cows that are raised longer can yield more marbled steak

Apparently there is even some fair degree of deceptive marketing involved, with online retailers claiming to sell American-raised “Kobe beef” (you can only call it Kobe if it’s been raised, by hand most likely, in Kobe, Japan).

I doubt you’ll see us taste-testing them… until of course the paid sponsorships begin, and we can shell out for five hundred bucks worth of steaks.

Surprises Ahead

Filed under: Internet, News, Not Steak — Steakfeed @ 9:26 am

This is a pretty big deal for us. Probably not such a big deal for you. But stay tuned. We’ve got some surprises in store for SteakFEED.com.

You might observe things get bumpy or flaky. Or, considering the fact that there are so few of you, reading so seldom, this whole thing might pass by completely unnoticed.

If a blog crashes but nobody reads it, does it make a sound?

sorry!

Filed under: Funnies, Internet, News — Steakfeed @ 4:10 pm

Our gmail <steakfeed AT gmail.com > has gone astray. In all honesty, we forgot we had it and never went to read it.

Now we find that a few of you have written. We apologize, and promise it will never happen again.

Now then… what was it you were saying? You want to Write For Us?

Getting what we deserve this year for our birthday

Filed under: News, The Grill, Things — Steakfeed @ 9:11 am

Did you know it’s our birthday?? Isn’t that cool?? We’ve been Typing About Steak for a whole year now!!!

Happy birthday to us.

So? What the heck did you get us for our birthday? Uh… Excuse us? You want us to pick it out ourselves, and you’ll pay for it? You’re going to reimburse us for our birthday present? That’s so cheap. We can’t believe it! How could you think that would be a good gift? Do you not know the meaning of the word “gift“?

Here’s an idea, how about, along with remuneration for the gift we select for ourselves, you just go ahead and pay us a decent wage for the time we have to spend choosing and purchasing our OWN DAMN BIRTHDAY PRESENT!!??!?!?

You totally forgot didn’t you? I knew it. I knew you’d never remember our first birthday, don’t even try to cover for your sorry self by trying to make us think you’re generous when you’re really just brandishing cash and making us do all the shopping and thinking. I bet you don’t even have dinner plans for us, do you?
