Abstract – Meat quality can be affected by breed, diet, production systems, pre and post slaughter conditions. This study aimed to evaluate the meat quality from young bulls from Charolais or Hereford bulls and 1/2 Angus x 1/2 Nellore or 1/2 Simental x 1/2 Nellore cows, fed two different diets. Samples were also aged for 28 days. Shear force, water holding capacity, colour, pH and cooking loss were measured. Meat quality was not affected by bull or cow genetic groups and only water holding capacity was affected by diet. Aging time played a major role affecting all the quality parameters except pH and cooking loss
