Moo-Dunnit: How Beef Replaced Bison on the American Plains—and Plate

Saddle up, folks: Today’s episode involves the cowboys' lullabies
and meat riots that helped make beef an American birthright. With
the help of Joshua Specht, author of Red Meat Republic, we tell the
story of how and why the 30 million bison that roamed the Plains
were replaced with 30 million cows. You'll never look at a
Porterhouse steak—the first cut of beef invented in America—the
same way again. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
