Nutrient restriction and re-alimentation (200 days) of Angus or Belgian Blue sired steers was examined. This feeding regime increased muscle shear force and tended to decrease overall liking. It is unlikely that these effects would be detected by an untrained consumer. Muscle from both breeds was rated similarly for tenderness. Muscle from the Angus-sired cattle was rated higher for many of the flavour characteristics examined.
