The closest analogy that I have found is Ostrich, though that tastes of beef and liver. Venison, aka deer, is much like beef, but with almost no fat, so you have to mix it with a fatty meat to use it as beef, even then there’s a richer “beefyness” to the end result.
I wish I had tried an antelope steak, when I had the ability to do so, I suspect that would be closer to beef in taste and fat content upon further research.
Was vegetarian for nearly 15 years. Worked a Friday day shift at the bar, hungover af. I think I served a dozen Prime Rib Dips and ended up asking the kitchen to save one for me for later … and that was the end of my vegetarian days. It 100% cured my hangover!
I aint got any way of describing it, good I guess. Its my prefered meat of choice if that gives you any idea. Also what relgion were you raised in? Im gonna guess Hindu.
If you were born after 1985 and are American your views on pork’s flavor aren’t exactly spot on. We moved to leaner breeds in the 1980s and as a result our pork has a lot less flavor than it used to. There’s a richness to heritage breeds like the ones Neiman Ranch sells that have that flavor still. Other nations I do not believe made this shift.
Thing is, your opinion on it will be dependent upon how it is prepared and by whom.
When I have beef in dishes like stir fry or brigiole or even in a roast beef sandwich, it’s not particularly impressive and is usually second fiddle to the vegetables, pasta or bread. However, a quality beef burger or steak made medium-rare and seasoned properly is just amazing.
The other thing though is that if you have never had it, it just might make you sick or at the very least plagued woth indigestion
How does beef taste anyway? I have resolved to never eat it because of my religious upbringing, although I am an atheist now. How does it taste?

Why don’t we have a cooking community here?
I have eaten deer, It was ok! I prefer chicken tbh, but yeah to each our own. Thank you for this! I can trust your because of the sauce lol
I haven’t eaten beef in like more than 30 years, but I remember that it tasted good when I used to eat it

yes, I was raised Hindu
Excellent
It’s overrated in my opinion. It’s tasty but not mind blowing in any way like the internet claims. I’ve had better tasting fried chicken to be honest.
It’s the best meat imo. Way better than pork and sheep

I’m from austria and if this were the case here, boomers and milenials would constantly nag about it.
Infact complaining is part of austrian culture (it’s called “sudern”, this word is only used in austria and bavaria)
DELICIOUS LIKE NOTHING ELSE
go away temptation. gooo…
Just kidding, if I feel like I am missing something, I might give it a go, But, I doubt if I will

I cannot describe the taste.
Eat some well barbequed beef and a wave of regret will wash over you, and you will cry for having denied it to yourself for all these years.
Medium rare beef steaks are hyped up, but it frankly is actually an acquired taste. I’ve eaten hot dogs I liked better.
This mfing hot dog comment
Sounds to me like you dont like beef. And yeah, that mf’in hot dog comment
Beef is best when slow cooked for a long time.
Also, both bratwurst and bacon wrapped cheese filled hot dogs are understated compared to steak.
