European Angus Society
Northern Ireland produced European Angus beef has been putting in ‘star’ performances in the food sector for a number of years now.
Quality of the product received major endorsement in the 2013 Great Taste Awards when Euro Angus beef was awarded 12 Gold Stars on five different beef products.
Three of the five products entered for the very first time were awarded three Gold Stars – Salt Aged Euro Angus Cote De Boeuf, Salt Aged Euro Angus Fiorentina T-Bone and Salt Aged Euro Angus Sirloin.
European Angus is a recognised breed of cattle in its own right which came about after the formation of the European Angus Cattle Society in 2003. Headquartered in Northern Ireland, the Society utilises both Angus and Limousin genetics to produce beef at its best!
In 2014 European Angus beef continued to come in for recognition when 21-Day Matured European Angus Sirloin Steak from Gilford-based Blackberry Hill Farm was shortlisted as a finalist in the prestigious Irish Quality Food Awards.
As we say at European Angus – “It’s all in the taste”.
The Society is also well known as organisers of the European Angus Steak Tasting Competition which has become a major event in the Agri-food calendar over the last couple of years. The competition is open to all breeds of cattle.
