Answers:
Black Angus is very good and is the preferred breed for most beef eaters!.
But you have a 100% pure breed and a mutt( mixed breed)!.
The pure breed is better and will cost more!.
As with all steers, fat content is very important!.
The more fat, the better the beef!.

I cant see where it would really make a different ,all cattle are beef, the younger they are the tender the beef, just make sure that when you purchase the cattle, they are in good health and have passed all the inspection that is required by law, start off with one bull and one heifer,and from there you will know what kind of beef you will have!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
