Grassfed Beef Has Distinctive Natural Flavor—No Need For Roast Beef Marinade Recipes

If you want to try some roast beef marinade recipes, here goes. . .



But think about this before you dive in to the marinade scene. Roast beef marinade recipes have become popular because conventional supermarket beef has a rather bland taste. It needs something to spice it up a bit. Corn finished beef has lost much of its natural flavor.

In contrast, grassfed beef has subtle yet distinctive flavors based on the type of soil, grass and legumes the cow or steer consumed during its lifetime. Go to Holiday Recipes to see why grassfed beef or grassfed lamb doesn’t need rubs or marinades to enhance its flavor. Again, if you just want to try some marinade recipes, or if you're cooking with conventional, store-bought beef, here goes.
