Designating the Texas strip steak as the official State Steak of Texas and directing the Texas Department of Agriculture to promote the Texas strip steak as part of efforts to support Texas beef and agricultural products.
HCR 99 is a symbolic resolution designating the "Texas strip steak" as the official State Steak of Texas. It directs the Texas Department of Agriculture to promote this steak as part of state efforts to support Texas beef and agricultural products. The bill does not change any actual steak names or regulations but aims to highlight Texas' leadership in beef production (the top U.S. producer with over 12.2 million cattle) and its cultural ties to ranching heritage.
