Angus cattle are a breed of beef cattle known for their solid black or red color and naturally polled (hornless) heads. Originating from Scotland, they are highly valued for their high-quality meat, which is tender and marbled, making it popular among consumers and chefs alike. Angus cattle are also known for their adaptability to various climates and their efficient feed conversion. These cattle are typically raised on pasture and are often used in commercial beef production. The Angus Association promotes the breed and provides resources for breeders, ensuring the quality and integrity of Angus beef. Their reputation for excellent meat quality has led to the establishment of the Certified Angus Beef program, which sets standards for Angus beef products.
