Beef It’s What’s For (Thanksgiving) Dinner

This Thanksgiving, the Washington beef industry is reminding you to keep beef in mind for your special holiday meal.  Jackie Madill, Executive Director for the Washington State Beef Commission says while another protein is typically front and center this week, they have a variety of great recipes to make sure beef is well represented at your dinner table.

“We have all of our holiday recipes gathered together, everything from that center of the Christmas table, standing rib roast, to wonderful side dishes, appetizers, great potluck opportunities," she said.  "Go get yourself a few recipes and treat your yourself and your loved ones to a great holiday.”

Madill added that many of these recipes are quick, relatively easy, and tasty way to not only get healthy protein but also support the local cattle industry.

Visit the Washington State Beef Commission's Website for a host of holiday recipe ideas, including Beef Pot Pie, Cheesy Beef Enchiladas, Cheesy Beef Artichoke Dip and more.
