Has anyone seen this? Watched it last night.  Looks like Spain 10- 15yr old cows tops japan's waygu.  Being on a Paleo/Ketogenic diet for the last 5 years I was aware of the need for marbled and high fat meats and this documentary proves the point.  More fat, more flavor and tenderness.

Not sure if it's worth a reactivation, it's kind of boring but goes into the grass fed movement for beef and how some have stayed that way for 200 years.  This is a French film and a lot of subtitles.  It lists the top 10 steaks in the world but not in order.  Maybe youtube it first.

The Canadian netflix selection is different than what you guys have south of the border. I am intringued since i never had a good steak in my travels to continental Europe. Will look it up on youtube.

The grass fed cows promoted by the low carb crowd creates a conundrum: if high carb diet does not creat adipose tissue how are cows getting fat on grass?

Weberkettleman, thanks for the heads up about the documentary video. I've checked and saw that it's still available on Netflix but I've not had the time to watch it yet.

Do you recall the names of the ten restaurants highlighted in the video? The place that you refer to in Spain sounds like a place that I've been to a few times known as Bodega El Capricho. El Capricho specializes in mature Chuleton de Buey (ox), generally preparing retired working animals between 8 to16 years old. The "younger" oxen are aged for around 100 days and the older ones go for for more than 200 days. The experience of dining there is unique and the meat served is delicious beyond description. I've had real Wagyu in Japan, not the fake crap sold in the U.S., and while both are outstanding, they're very different, and defy comparison.
