Seems like it's processed well enough

Repped. I said repped dammit !!!!

Yes, back on the compression issue, I was referring to differences by using a hose with a longer thread. apparently the thread being longer reduces the volume of the cylinder enough to increase the compression measurably. On a car or truck, I don't think it would be possible to detect the difference but a chainsaw cylinder's volume is tiny at TDC so just a few extra threads makes a change. Even to a wicked work saw.

I was off the forum for most of the summer for various reasons and I am slowly getting caught up on all the drama and news

I count my lucky stars that TERRY LANDRUM, WICKED WORKSAWS, WICKED WORK SAWS, WWS didn’t answer my query years ago when I first decided I needed a ported saw

Luckily a certain porting primate graciously answered my email and started me down that slippery slope to CAD heaven

But I digress

So back to beef; they raise a lot of beef in Hawaii including here on Molokai

The vast majority is grass fed with no grain finishing

The vast majority also gets shipped out as well but there is a local co-op that slaughters and sells beef as well as local pigs and deer

Having grown up on grain fed meats I sometimes find the local grass fed has a rank, almost gamey taste that reminds me of game meat that was poorly cared for in the field and that had lots of bone sawdust and fat left on it or in it

The taste is sometimes present in the meat but almost always present in the fat and I love a fatty well marbled ribeye so I don’t trim it before I grill it

I am never sure if this a function of the grass feed or age or poor processing

Makes me think they slaughtered an old range bull

It happens about 50% of the time and I quit wasting my money on it because it’s damn expensive

I like buying locally and supporting sustainable agriculture but I hate throwing away a $20 steak

Any of you cattle barons got any ideas on what could cause the off taste on such a consistent basis ?

Thanks

He's still taking in work? I posted or brought this up a year or so ago, cause I had not seen anything about him in awhile. I then read then about the issues and I thought I read that his shop was permanently closed on Google maybe? But from what I read about him at that time I was thinking that he was done and surprised that people were still sending stuff to him especially when all those threads were easily found and recent on most of the forums if you googled him.

It's most likely due to their diet. The hippies love their *s-wordty tasting grass fed gender neutral beef steaks, but us old fat guys know that grain fed beef tastes wonderful !!!!

You mean my LGBT tofurkey is supposed to taste like s&@!

Raised on grass, finished on grain (at least 3 months).

Winner winner!

Molokai is rural and agricultural

Only about 7,500 people on the island

I think it's awesome that kids here are still into 4H and have a yearly 4H exposition and livestock show and contest

Everything from rabbits to beef cows

And the kids that consistently win in the beef division ALL finish their critters on grain

The locals DO NOT like the local grass fed/finished beef

Guess that's why they ship 99% off island to yuppie markets in America

I don't think I've ever had a grain finished steak here in Oz. They even advertise 'grass fed', you know, the organic angle. When I was out West, Back of Bourke, the pubs would have 'station beef', guaranteed to build up your jaw muscles.

I've got two 1000 lb Angus steers going to the slaughter house toward the end of January. They just came off the grass, and are now going into a small lot with just grain and high quality hay.

One thing I didn't mention about the local grass fed beef is the occasional piece of meat that has a vivid purple color

I know there are some exotic breeds like Wagyu that are weird colors and marbling patterns but is the vivid purple another result of a strict grass diet or a factor of breed?

Most of the cattle here are angus cross, at least thats what they look like to me

Some Hereford cross as well

And I just read something interesting about the reason for high cost of the local beef

It's because there is no market for the "drop" (their term for byproducts: bones, hide, etc) so it simply gets tossed and the revenue from that has to be recouped somehow; hence the premium price for something with essentially no transportation costs
