Andy, Angus are a breed of beef cattle. As in any other breed there
will be various grades of beef depending on how the animal was fed,
finished and aged. By itself being Angus beef does not make it any
better IMHO then Hereford, Charolais or any other beef breeds. My Dad
raised all three of these breeds of beef cattle at various times and
we ate beef from all three breeds. They were grass fed, finished on
corn and slaughtered at a small, local slaughter house. We were
lucky. We knew what was in the meat we ate.
