I had my bachelors last weekend and a couple of friends had the idea of trying different breeds. From top to bottom
1. Belgian white blue
2. Scottona
3. Holstein
4. Jersey
5. Black Angus

All seasoned with salt and a bit of pepper, some with some thyme, some with some rosemary. The Jersey steak without herbs. We all had them in a bath of 53°c and grilled them on a very hot BBQ afterwards. The consensus was that Holstein was by far the tastiest.

Jersey came in second but none of us thought they could finish an entire steak compared to the Holstein.

Scottona was very grassy and a bit spiced, very tasty and beefy, although that was the toughest steak of the bunch.

Black Angus and Belgian White Blue were a mixed result, personally I thought the black Angus was very good and beefy, some thought it was a bit off putting. As the Belgian white blue was very tender, althoug almost flavourless. Mind you, these cows are bred for mass, not taste.

Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of the finished steaks as there was beer involved and we were quite hungry, sorry for that.
