blinkers Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 I had tried the Thai/French beef, but it was expensive but the bit I had was edible. If you are near Kanchanaburi, PM me and I will be able to point you in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YogaVeg Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 (edited) Why is it that the cheapest vegetarian restaurants are the only ones with brown rice? I try paying more for a meal often, and usually am disappointed. Especially by "western" places. It doesn't seem to matter how much I spend. My best freshest tastiest meals are always 30-40 baht veggies on brown rice. Edited September 28, 2018 by YogaVeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I will keep an eye out (as Nelson said) for Charolais beef! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHTel Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Thai/French beef is probably similar to the Thai German Meat Co. Not French and not German!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duanebigsby Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 I don't buy beef often in Thailand, but I find you can get a decent tasting cut at Makro, Big C, or Tops most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveK Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 If I could get Charolais beef fillets for 600 a kilo, I would gladly buy 20Kg to put in my freezer, but knowing my luck there would be a huge blackout and it would all go off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussies, Yanks and Southern Folk, NZ, UK, Froggs (French), Argentine, Mexicans, Canadians most of Europe, Japan and another 100 different countries. lots and lots. Thailand I think beat their beef cattle to death, they have not got a clue how to present Beef to the World and likely never will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Thai/French beef was set up by a French guy, with Thai partners, he died the Thai's carried on and almost went bust, they could not manage the company. They beef is Charolais x Brahman, not 100% Charolais, a 100% Charolais will suffer from heat stress, and will not have a lot of resistance against tice born diseases, which are often fatal. Most of the Thai/French stock is 60% Charolais and 40% Brahman, and other Thai meat companies. Another problem with buying beef if you live in a rural area is if a sick animal dies, it will have been injected with various antibiotics, so a piece of beef from your local market could have traces of Penicillin or Oxcytracyclin, in it. A-Roy, delicious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kieran00001 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Quote a meat requiring the lucky eaters to have the dentition of Jaws Perfectly fine if left to hang for a week, all beef is tough until hung. Quote farmers come up with the argument that cows make babies, which give them value...certainly, but so do rabbits, and at a much faster pace, so why not trade rabbits instead? You can breed about 40 rabbits per year from one doe, that could make you a profit of 2000 baht, while one calf if kept for 18 months could profit you 20,000. Also there is the fact that it is easy to sell beef while almost no one buys rabbit in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not the issue, the issue is eating bacteria in the meat that has grown resistant to antibiotics, that is a risk as they might not respond to any antibiotics the doctor gave you.
