Since 1978, Certified Angus Beef® brand has used 10 exacting standards by which to judge the taste and quality of beef. In fact, only 1 in 4 Angus cattle meet their exceedingly high criteria. They believe the best way to meet those standards is by working directly with dedicated family ranchers. These ranchers have committed themselves to raising not just Angus beef, but the best Angus beef ever made.
