What We Do

Bringing Texans To The Table

The Texas Beef Council (TBC) is building beef-loving communities by engaging consumers, chefs, health influencers, and more with demand-driving programs. We work to bring Texans to the table over a shared love of beef through promotion, research and education.

The successes below—created, funded, and supported by your Beef Checkoff—are what help keep beef in its strongest state. For a full report on TBC programs across Texas, view the 2023 Annual Report. Cattle producers can also sign up for Cattle Talk to receive straightforward news, detailed insights and transparent results on how your Beef Checkoff dollars are utilized in Texas and across the nation.
