Let us know how it turned out! This from a human owned by a cat who just drank from the cat's glass instead of the human's glass, both of which reside on the computer desk. Oh well, not much worse than going out in the world with a freshly washed mask that somehow has cat hair embedded on the breathing side. I'm just jealous, okay?

[@tuckgraph]

@@rhettlover1 Just between you and me, I went to make the magic and the beef looked a little suspect, so I had to let the old cow go. I'll get some fresh tomorrow and post the results. I haven't had to deal with cat hair for about four years, she's resting in the back yard. Missing her right now, so I'll send a little reciprocal jealousy.

I think the brisket needs some long slow braise to tenderize first...

[@akasgsvirgil9503]

Fun fact: More than 90% of all beef sold in the US is grass fed beef. Its not the exception. Its the rule. Why? Because growing cattle on grain is expensive and cattle don't do as well on grain as they do grass precisely because their 4 chambered stomachs are specifically evolved to digest grass and legumes. If you were take a drive through American's top 3 cattle producing states, which are (in order) Texas, Nebraska and Kansas, you would see oceans of grassland that stretch in all directions from horizon to horizon dotted with herds of happy cows munching away on grass. When winter comes and the grass isn't as nutritious, cattle are fed hay grown over the Spring and Summer. Is there a time when cattle are fed grain such as corn or a grain-based feed? Yes. When the cattle are rounded up and sorted for sale, they spend anywhere from a few days to 10 or so being fed a high fat, high protein feed in order to pack on a few last minute pounds. This is gone because cattle are sold by weight on the hoof. So, a few extra pounds per animal in herd of a few hundred or few thousands animals adds up. So, if you're in the grocery store and you see beef that's labeled "grass fed", its a marketing ploy to get you to pay more for the same beef.

[@johnmarquardt1991]

Top five beef producing states are Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Nebraska, and South Dakota in that order.

[@kwm9315]

This is really interesting, so the whole grass fed beef or grass fed butter is just marketing and to price higher?

[@bensebaugh6017]

I was with you until the last part, grain finished beef has a mellow flavor and more fat generally, the same cut will usually be a little larger as well. Marketing BS comes into play but aside from that, most people in the U.S. prefer grain finished beef and a lighter beef flavor. It's not the only reason but certainly one why beefalo and bison never took off. (I love ground bison) I agree with you on most of what you said but there is a difference in the two as far as I can tell, filtering out the difference in packers and runs, marketing etc... A stark difference and one that really benefits profit wise was moving to Cryovac and wet aging, they pass all that purge down the line, minimal moisture loss, efficient as hell... subprimals can be put into boxes and distributed and stored based on need... The quality isn't the same though, dry hung beef, all else being equivalent is always better, but it's a thing of the past unfortunately and isn't the future.

[@ednamode2334]

Are poblano peppers different from normal green peppers ?

[@debbyd5729]

Yes. Green bell peppers are a type of sweet peppers and are the least flavored (and most boring) of the sweet peppers (in my opinion). Poblano is not a bell pepper and can be a teeny tiny bit spicy to some and has more flavor than a green bell pepper. I think poblano would be fantastic in this hash!

[@AlRoderick]

Basically everybody in the capsicum family from bell peppers to ghost peppers produces some amount of heat, but the bell peppers produce so little for how big the fruit is that is not noticeable. Poblanos are basically one step down the size chain from bell peppers and so have a barely noticeable amount of heat. It's basically an inverse relationship, the bigger the pepper the milder the flavor, and the very smallest chilies are the most powerful in terms of their capsaicin content. I have a tendency to substitute poblanos for green bell peppers in a lot of recipes just to make them more interesting, they're good grilled with onions alongside some sausage or a cheese steak.
