Secretary’s Corner
Greetings fellow Angus breeders!
Hopefully you have all been busy with harvest,
fall calving, spring calf weaning, and marketing
decisions that are all positively impacting your
bottom line. It has certainly been a challenging
fall and late summer with the excessive moisture.
I have been in every corner of the state and in
between in the last few weeks and for the most
part, the season of mud has already begun.
However, sales so far this fall have been stong
with very high quality cattle, and attendance has
been great at all events I’ve been to.
No matter what type of operation you have
- seedstock, commercial, feeder, or backgrounder,
or strictly show cattle, there are still sales to
occur in Ohio to help you find the cattle that will
fit into your operation, at prices that will benefit
you and the buyer. If I can be of any assistance
in helping connect any of you to potential buyers
or sellers, please feel free to contact me, and
don’t forget to mark your calendars for the Ohio
Angus Association Fall Female Sale, to be held
December 10, 2010 at Claylick Run Angus Sale
Facility, Newark, OH.
This Ohio sale is targeted towards the
serious seedstock producer and commercial
cattlemen who needs replacement females that
will bring value and productivity to their herd
through this elite offering. In addition to the
featured lots on our ad in this issue, we will offer
for sale approximately 50 head of bred heifers
and cows, and spring 2011 heifer calves. All Ohio
members will receive a catalog in the mail but
please notify me if additional catalogs are needed
for your friends and neighbors, and ask them to
join Ohio Angus when you tell them about the
sale!
Sincerely,
Allen M. Gahler

Yum: That buttery, beef-fat flavor
If meat scientist Daryl Tatum goes out for a “knock-your-socks-off ” beef dinner, it’s going to include high levels of marbling.
New research by the Colorado State University professor points out the links between key sensory attributes and quality grades.
“Marbling has kind of gotten a bum rap from a lot of people saying it really doesn’t predict much,” Tatum says. “But across the
full range, it has predicative capabilities. When you can measure it precisely, it does a really good job.”
The recent work, funded by The Beef Checkoff and commissioned by the industry’s Joint Product Enhancement Committee,
looked at camera-based quality grade calls and their correlation to eating experience.
A trained panel evaluated steaks from carcasses that were camera graded into seven different marbling scores. Tenderness and
“buttery, beef-fat” flavor accounted for 91% of the variation in overall sensory experience; in turn, 40% of tenderness variation and 71%
of variation in that desirable flavor was due to marbling score.
Tatum says “the beef trade has it figured out. Prime is its own category and the upper two-thirds of Choice is another category
by itself.”
The probability of a positive eating experience within the Prime grade is 98% to 99%. With modest and moderate amounts of
marbling, the threshold for many premium Choice brands like CAB, the chance of a good eating experience is 82% to 88%.
That’s in stark contrast to low Choice at 62% or Select at 29%.
“When you get to that premium Choice zone, there’s not much wrong with the beef in most people’s opinion,” Tatum says. “It’s
more of an insurance policy than anything. You’re not going to get a junk piece of meat once you get up at those levels.”
