What the female cattle are all about
There is nothing better than a delicious Pot roast, steaming potato dumplings, and a spicy red wine sauce. What meat do we prefer to use for this? Our tender heifer, of course. Wait a minute, what? Heifer?
Don't worry: If you're thinking feet, you're completely wrong. The spelling makes all the difference:
The term "heifer"—with an ä instead of an e—describes cattle that are at least one year old and are yet to calve for the first time. The young females are thus in the midst of their growth and development phase, which gives the meat a very special flavor. We at Buffalo Bill Of course we didn't want to miss out on this and have quickly added the heifer to our diverse range.
But what exactly makes this meat so unique?
Finest meat flavor
Even at first glance, the meat of a female cow is recognizable by its rich red color, which is due to its young age and active growth phase. Because the muscle fibers are not yet fully developed and are therefore very thin and delicate, it immediately has a finer structure. The fatty tissue is also particularly fine and well distributed here – which not only contributes to the flavor of the meat, but also ensures a juicy and tender texture. To preserve this tenderness, heifer meat is usually aged for a shorter time and is less tough than products from older animals. These characteristics give heifer meat a unique flavor that scores points with its intense aroma.
The Lake Constance heifer
The right diet also plays a role in the tenderness of the meat – this makes the marbling particularly fine and the flavor even more intense. That's why we ensure that our heifers feed exclusively on natural feed, such as regional grasses and herbs. Because, true to tradition, our sustainability principle We raise the female cubs under the best conditions, just like our buffalo.
Our heifers are raised in the picturesque region surrounding idyllic Lake Constance. Here, among expansive pastures and crystal-clear water, we create an environment that allows our animals to be raised in a stress-free and gentle manner. Another factor that has a lasting impact on the quality and taste of our Lake Constance heifer.
