How long does it take to make a steak? First question\u2014are
\nyou Team Medium-Rare like me? If you are, then it takes about twelve minutes to
\nmake a delicious Porterhouse
\nSteak!\u00a0<\/a>My favorite way is grilled over charcoal with a bit of woodsmoke, but frankly,
\neven pan-fried in a cast iron skillet is okay with me. <\/del><\/span><\/p>\n

Before that steak appears at the grocery store or
\nrestaurant, ranchers like me have already spent up to THREE YEARS of planning
\nand hard work on your steak! Yes, seriously! For National Agriculture Day,
\nMarch 23, 2021, let\u2019s talk about how long it takes to make a steak!<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start at the beginning. I am a Seedstock Rancher\u2014which
\nis kind of like the person who grows the seeds you buy to plant in your garden,
\nexcept with cattle. My family and I use many tools to determine which are the
\nbest bulls to breed to our cows, that will help in producing the best breeding
\nstock to sell to other ranchers. When I make a breeding decision, it affects
\nthe people who buy my cattle, as well as the calves that they raise, and
\nfinally the beef that they produce and send to the restaurants and stores!<\/p>\n

\"hair<\/a><\/div>\n

My customers who buy breeding stock rely on me to sell them
\nthe best genetics available. DNA sampling is one of the coolest tools
\nthat I use to know the genetics for the bulls that I sell. From a sample of
\ntail hair, the lab can extract DNA, and based on genetic markers we know if the
\nbull\u2019s progeny will have superior marbling characteristics or not! Of course,
\nwe want the best marbling so they will make delicious steak. There are other
\ntraits that we use to select superior cattle as well, but marbling is very
\nimportant in determining quality steaks.<\/p>\n

My customers use my seedstock (bulls and cows) that I sell
\nto them, to raise cattle that make the beef we eat. A cow\u2019s gestation is nine
\nmonths, so after purchasing a bull from me, my customers will have calves about
\na year later, and then they are about 1 \u00bd to 2 years-old when they are
\nslaughtered for beef.\u00a0 <\/span>So, when I say
\nthat it takes at least three years to make a steak\u2014I am not exaggerating!<\/p>\n

\"medium<\/a><\/div>\n

Are you looking for new beef
\nrecipes so that you are ready to break out the grill this summer? My favorite
\nplace for browsing recipes is BeefItsWhatsforDinner.com\u00a0<\/a>and
\nyou can find delicious ways to cook steak, roasts and ground beef! Grilling
\nseason is just around the corner and on National Agriculture Day, enjoy a steak
\nknowing that a rancher just like me has been working to send you the best steak
\nwe can! <\/p>\n

Are you Team Medium-Rare? Team Medium? Or maybe even Team
\nRare? How do you like your steak? You can trust that it is safe and nutritious,
\nand that I have done all the work and planning to bring the best steak to your
\ngrill.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
