 recall seeing any evidence regarding the production or consumption of
 castrated steers (probably either because cattle were sometimes expected
 to do a little work before slaughter, or else because even immature
 bulls tend to become upset when you slice off delicate portions of their
 anatomy, and express their displeasure in various violent ways). Has
 anyone ever heard of a period example of castrating bulls or pigs to
 produce large, docile meat animals?     >>

The term used to describe a castrated bull is 'ox'.  Hope this helps.
