The black Angus cattle is a scottish breed and was introduced to Argentina 16th century. Most beef producers from Argentina raise their cattle in Las Pampas, a large and rich grasslands in central Argentina. The cattle are able to free range and eat nothing but grass.

If you do have a chance to travel to Argentina, do by all means. Try it first hand. And if the beef doesn't thrill you the culture and wine will. http://youtu.be/5d4l10P8g3M?hd=1

Also I do enjoy Kobe Beef from Kobe, Japan. However, it is very expensive. Usually out of my price range.
Is that why those Scottish steak houses in London are so good?
I got a chuckle out of that. But it is why the Australian beef I sometimes get is so good and had less calories than typical US beef.
