North Central Texas
Who said anything about grinding an old cow. Cow kill plant makes as many steaks as it can. They just arent choice or prime. Doesn't matter if an animal is 2 or 10, they can all get the same marbling grade. In your case, you have a carcass that should be a C and not qualify for ch/pr but there can be a possibility due to maturity differences in breeds to have a known c make a b grade. If you wouldn't have had the high degree of marbling, your b would only qualify as a select. We sell lots of culls direct and the plant separates them by age for easier grading and product grouping. If I had a 7 year old get a choice grade, I would know there is a grader getting kickbacks. With a 4 year old, you start running the risk of a lower quality stringy product. Your longhorn needed all he could get though.

Did I miss anything?

Have a Merry Christmas.
