Cattle complaint (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beef

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'cattle' is the first definition.
(beef is a kind of cattle)

'complaint' is the second definition.
(beef can mean a complaint or objection)

(Other definitions for beef that I've seen before include "it's unacceptable for vegetarian" , "Muscle; meat; grievance" , "Grumble over cattle meat?" , "Strength - grievance" , "Meat - complaint" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Globe and Mail.
