Quite common. I think Charolais is the third or fourth popular breed in America. Angus takes the number one spot for being the most popular beef breed in the United States.

What breed of cattle has the least amount of fat out of charlais angus and charlais angus cross?

Well, for one thing, an F2 animal out of a Char-Angus x Char-Angus is definitely not a breed, but a crossbreed.Unless your asking "What breed of cattle has the least amount of fat: Charolais, Angus or Charolais Angus cross?" I assume this is the closest to what your asking, as the question you posted above makes very little sense.Charolais-Angus crossbreds are not a breed, but a composite. These cattle have the characteristics of both Charolais and Angus parents, and so wouldn't have the least amount of fat at finishing. Angus tend to mature early, and consequently put on more fat during finishing than either a Char-Angus cross or a Charolais. So, that leaves us with the final answer:A Charolais is the breed of beef cattle that has the least amount of fat content.
